    1st Full Packer Brisket w/Qview

    Very nice looking smoke there.   Burnt ends sound so wonderful.  My mouth is watering.  Now that the weather is getting cooler, ill have to bring my smokers out of hiding.  For some reason it has to be cool or cold for me to smoke.

    Pulled Pork For Tomorrow: Smoke Today Eat Tomorrow

    What worked very well for me this last new years eve was pulling while hot.  Mixed some SoFlaQuers finishing sauce in the baggy, an over night rest in the fridge and then a reheat the next day.  Wonderful results.
