Hey Pelletheads, side note I miss Jimmy Bufffet, I normally smoke my pork shoulders/butts in a pan. I have agreed to smoke enough meet for 75 people. I bought 5 shoulders. I don't think I can get 5 11 to 12 pound butts on the 700 in pans. I think I can easily get 5 without the pans under...
Happy Independence Day weekend! Today I am smoking ribs, corn, wings and thighs. Tomorrow evening I am putting on 17 pounds of pork shoulder for a 15-17 hour cook. What's on your rec Teq ?
Today I was attempting to take my son to the Asheville aeroport so he could fly back to college in Orlando. Flight got cancelled by Allegiant. Anyway, we were killing time before he checked the flight and I was at the Sportsman Warehouse there in Asheville. They have a grill section and of...

Have any of y'all put bacon under the skin of chicken or turkey before smoking ? I wrapped a chicken the other day with bacon and it turned out ok. I was hoping the bacon flavor would impart to the chicken more . I got to thinking maybe of I slide the bacon under the skin and then maybe I...
Hey Pelletheads,
