    PIT BARREL COOKER

    Yep, 60:40 charcoal to wood chunks. I typically use the blue bag, haven't really ventured away from that yet.

    PIT BARREL COOKER

    Been working to improve the meat on my PBC. This was about a 60:40 split charcoal to hickory. Best smoke flavor yet, and got a little smoke ring, too.

    anyone combining sous vide into their smoking?

    If you really like chicken sous vide, I cannot recommend highly enough doing breast at 145. Under that and it gets a weird spongy texture, but 145 chicken breast is sublime. Same with pork chops.

    anyone combining sous vide into their smoking?

    Looks like I'm crossing sous vide and smoking by accident today. Smoked a couple turkey legs last night with a few other things, and pulled them a little too early. They got a couple hours in the PBC, but are still pretty tough. So this morning popped them in a bag and set the sous vide for 170...

    I have some fresh kielbasa, a chicken brinerating in soy sauce and bourbon and some aromatics, and turkey legs marinating in seasoning rub and Worcestershire sauce for the PBC today.

    anyone combining sous vide into their smoking?

    I've been using sous vide since 2008, but never crossed it with smoking... Interesting. For anyone new to SV, I highly recommend pork, chicken breast, and salmon in sous vide.

    Displaced in Alabama

    Hi everyone. I'm a Kansas City native living in Alabama. I gotta be honest, I like it here, but I really miss being in one of the BBQ Meccas of the U.S. I'm no pitmaster, but I know my way around a grill and smoker. I used to do small-time county competition in the KC area, but haven't in a...
