    " The Big Game"

    I have two small whole chickens that are going into Slaughterhouses Brine later today, and I am thinking about doing some bacon wrapped jalepeno and MJ cheese stuffed shrimp and maybe some stuffed mushrooms. As for the chickens, I am thinking about going all the way with them and injecting them...

    Thinking I need to toss my first attempt....

    Thanks for all the replies on this one. In the end, I tossed the butts. My 200 degree reading was taken on water taken straight out the micro when it was boiling. Turns out this gives you 200 while actual boiling on the stovetop gives you 212 verified by the thermos I have. Alas, the meat was...

    Thinking I need to toss my first attempt....

    I was using a digital thermo that I had not calibrated before hand. I just boiled some water and checked the digital thermo and an instant read that I have and they both were at 200 degrees. I hate to throw them both out, but without knowing that the bottom butt was at 140 by 4 hours, I am...

    Thinking I need to toss my first attempt....

    I am in the process of my first attempt at a Boston Butt. Purchased the two pack at Sams Club that is cryo packed, brought them home yesterday, injected with apple juice, sugar, salt mixture and rubbed down with my own creation and into the fridge. They were in the fridge for 12 hours. Woke up...

    Cupcake tin chicken thighs-qview

    Maybe this is the newb in me talking, but I thought the point of the muffin tins was for the presentation of the final product during a competition (uniformity) and not because it made them taste better? Just a thought.

    First 2-2-1 BBs on the Electric Brinkmann w/ Q-View!

    Well I gave some Baby Backs a go this weekend on the Brinkmann. I used the 2-2-1 method. Rubbed and let sit in the fridge for about 18 hours. Used AJ when I foiled and a couple of times during the smoke (hickory) I misted them down. I threw them on the hot gasser for a minutes after I pulled...

    Newb 3-2-1 Question

    Well I am all set for my first Baby Back smoke tomorrow. I have two racks rubbed up and marinating in the fridge. I have a bonus question to my original post. The last hour of the 2-2-1 method is just for crispy right? If that is the case how many of you guys just throw them on a hot gasser to...

    First let me say this site is awesome. I bought a Brinkman electric last weekend at Lowes and smoked some Salmon which came out awesome. Well this weekend I am going to try out some BBs using the 2-2-1 method. My question relates to the foiling portion and the amount of liquid (apple juice...
