    Large Cookout question

    We get that from about 40 pounds of Butt, Pulled and stocked (1 can of good chicken stock per 1/2 tray works for us) we usually get 1 - 1/2 tray full with 1 1/2 8 -9 pound butts. 1 - 1/2 tray at 6 pounds of meat will easily do 25 people.

    Cole Slaw?

    We call them "Rio Rancho Pulled Pork Wraps" A large flour tortilla with PP, Slaw, shredded sharp cheddar cheese, a squirt of spicy BBQ sauce and a scoop of Green Chile, roll it and you have the perfect 1 handed meal, the only way you could make it better is to either deep fry it or put it on a...

    rib rub

    I agree with the Chipotle, I would substitute the Smoked Paprika, Cayenne for it. Chili powder?? Why not Red Chile powder (mild to medium is good), I use it with the Chipotle with garlic and pepper for a superb pork seasoning. I don't actually recall ever buying Chili powder, is that what they...

    Have you smoked with Pecan

    We have used the shells for smoke and found that it was mild and sweet. Also have used fresh cut trees for fuel, not too bad, a light smoke and good heat.

    How did you come up with your screen name?

    Mine is because of an addiction to the 'stinking rose'. Similar to our ideals here in New Mexico, 'A day with out Green Chile is like ..... not even worth getting out of bed for', My vice is Garlic, EVERY THING tastes better with Garlic. A little is good but alot is better.

    $1/lb. whole loin roasts at HEB, how well do they smoke?

    Cut them 1 1/2" to 2" thick, smoke for an hour or so (to about 140*) slice them to 3/4" to 1" thick and them finish them on a grill. I have done catering events with them several times, I call them pork chops and people go nuts for them. I use a dry rub over night using Chipotle and red Chile...

    Smoker Build Question

    IMHO big is good. I have made a few and even though I could not do proper math on the first one, the oversized fire box works well for me. The first cooker I built was 30" dia. X 8' for the cook chamber and the fire box was 36"dia. X 36" long. The barrel was made from 1/4" plate that we rolled...

    Reheating pulled pork

    Chicken stock. What a wonderful product. When we do a production run of Pork we will pull it after a short rest, add the liquid from the wraper and 1 can of chicken stock with a shot of our house BBQ sauce, then freeze it quickly. The package comes out to 7 pounds total and will feed 25 for...

    Chargriller

    We love ours, to the piont that we are looking to get a second one. We have done mods to get it to cook well, We have used ours for many catering events and competions, it is light enough so I can load it in the truck by myself. My older New Braunfels was too heavy to pick up alone and load. The...

    Sleeping and Smoking

    I have set cookers on fire during all-nighters. it is not a pretty sight, The fire department may fine you unless they get breakfast. I live next to Rt66 and the fire department travels it regularly and if the wind is blowing toward the road they will come into the park looking for the smoke...

    New project

    Can any one tell me what this unit is? It appears to be a New Braunfels just before Charbroil took them over. I got the assembly book for it and it just has some numbers for the model. I have begun the Mods already,, raised the fire box wood grate (I plan on making it a stick burner), Welded all...

    Pulling the trigger!

    That is our plan as well. My business partner and I have been doing this for 5 years now and still enjoy doing custom events. The people aspect is possibly one of the most important parts of doing small personal caterings. We will do events as small as 10 or as many as 500, all with the same...

    Use the fire box to heat water

    Pinkmeat: It is a 15 gallon pot, not 5. I do have a problem with the BBQ beans though, The grate spacing is too far apart and they keep falling through. (LOL) Yes the fire box is huge, it measures 3' wide X 3' deep X 2.5' tall and the initial load of wood is about 75 pounds and 1 - 20 pound bag...

    Use the fire box to heat water

    This is what we use, a 15 gallon aluminum pot on the fire box. It will take about an hour to get real hot, when we use some from it we add more to it. This meets all of the health codes for hot water for use as dish washing and hand washing (seperate containers of course). The top of the box...
