    Pork Butt in 20 hours at 225 and now 187 ??? Thoughts

    I checked it at 3 1/2 hours and it was like 135 so I went to bed at that time!

    Pork Butt in 20 hours at 225 and now 187 ??? Thoughts

    So to close this thread I will give you the final report. I pulled it after 23 hours and internal temp on my probe read 197, when I tested with Thermopen it was pretty spot on with exception of one spot that read 200. When I pulled the meat after resting a couple hours I thought some was pretty...

    Pork Butt in 20 hours at 225 and now 187 ??? Thoughts

    I just double checked with two other digital thermometers, one read a couple degrees lower, the other read a couple degrees hotter. So assuming with the 3 of them reading all close it's not the temperature. I was questioning that myself...I think my next butt I'm doing at 240!

    Pork Butt in 20 hours at 225 and now 187 ??? Thoughts

    I have a Thermapen and reads the same, it has moved up to 190 now, been about 1 hour since raising the temp to 240. Maybe finally got through the stall?

    Pork Butt in 20 hours at 225 and now 187 ??? Thoughts

    Put a 8# (approximate) boneless Pork Butt from Costco in at 6:30PM last evening @ 225, 20 hours in a it is smelling delicious but only up to 187*. What do you all think, I'm leaning towards letting 'er roll. Anything to be concerned with? I did crank up the heat to 240 about 19 hours in...

    Jerky recipe thoughts and input

    The above was simply a brine comprised of equal parts Worchesteshire, Terriaki or Soy and Frank's Hot Sauce plus whatever else he felt like throwing in (garlic, etc)

    Jerky recipe thoughts and input

    Thanks for the input from all of you. I maybe should have gone into more depth...I have done quite a lot of jerky from whole musscle venison. I have tried High Mountain and my wife and both thought it was way to salty. I have used several different recipes and have liked a couple of them "okay"...

    Jerky recipe thoughts and input

    I asked a friend, who is actually a deer processor, if he had a favorite recipe for jerky. He said he uses: 1/3 Worchesteshire, 1/3 Terriaki or Soy and 1/3 Frank's Hot Sauce and then just adds whatever he has or feels right at the moment (garlic, brown sugar, lime etc) I continue searching for...

    adding Cure#1 to recipe

    Actually my favorite has been a brine and not dry. I did some with a High Mountain dry seasoning and wife and I both thought it was way too salty for our liking.

    adding Cure#1 to recipe

    So what do you feel safe time to be used if not refrigerated? Small batches...I would vacuum seal and freeze majority taking it out as needed.

    adding Cure#1 to recipe

    Thank you both for the replies. I too feel more comfortable with the cure in my jerky. I do not really cook it but dry it in the smoker with smoke and a fan on exhaust. Maybe 125 degrees. I have done it before and loved the texture and flavor!

    adding Cure#1 to recipe

    I have a few recipes for jerky I would like to try that do not have cure in them, I would feel better adding it. Is there a formula for the amount and would you want to change amount of salt if it is called for in the original recipe? And while I'm asking, if anyone has a good sweet, spicy...

    Smokin-It 3 Electric

    I have a MB with mailbox mod and PID and got tired of all the hassle. I found a used #3 a couple years ago for what I thought was a bargain and bought it. The small amount of wood required is fact. I love it for smoking salmon and chicken, and pork, I have not had perfect results with beef. I...
