    anyone watch

    I live in Rock Tavern, NY where they originally filmed. They have moved to Middletown NY, to a bigger store and are also building a corporate HQ nearby. They seem like good enough guys, but I have never met any of them. Sometimes I will hear people say that the son is a jerk, but I am sure...

    For those BRAVE enough to watch...

    I think I have seen worse than that, I know people boil their ribs and red jello mix, to get that chinese food look to them.

    How did you come up with your screen name?

    mine is a nickname I got half a life ago for drinking all day in Cancun, and my buddies had to carry me to my room that night (techically the next morning) on a hand truck.

    Pumpkin head

    I used the pumpkin spice again this time, sort of a 1:1 ratio of pumpkin spice and a Bad Bob's Hawg rub on chicken wings, made about 2 dozen of them. Good thing I stopped there I would still be eating them, they came out great.

    Pumpkin head

    It only left hints of the flavor in the meat, which was overpowered by the smokiness very, but the bark was very tasty. It left me with the feeling that with another complimentary ingredient I could be on to something.

    Pumpkin head

    Ok, so I was out of my usual rub, but I had some Brown sugar and a bunch of pumpkin spice someone gave me (we like to make pies for thanksgiving..lots of pies). The pumpkin spice sufficed for added flavor, but I was wondering has anybody used this and possibly combined it with another...

    Basic Pulled Pork Smoke

    Actually I have been told to make sure it got to 170 degrees, so that it was cooked, at which point I wrap it in foil and leave it on for a couple of hours (4-5 lb. shoulder) and not worry about it getting over cooked, because the foil will tend to keep the moisture from escaping. Everyone...

    Basic Pulled Pork Smoke

    Hi, I have done pretty much everything you say here, except I was given advice by someone that told me to get the inside of the meat to be 170-180 degrees. I am not saying anyone is right or wrong, I just wonder if I am losing out on anything by not getting to the temperature you recommend?
