    First Time Pork Butt Question

    I was planning to let it rest before pulling. Several places i read said that was a good idea. I am using my own rub with a mixture of apple cider vinegar and apple juice spray. I might use the juice/vinegar mix as a finishing sauce as well. I am going to cook with mostly cherry wood and a...

    Smoked Lobster Tails?

    You bring up several good points.  I am cooking them this weekend so I haven't done anything yet.  Will just dunking them in butter before smoking keep them from drying out while cooking? (That was my "Maine" concern and reason for using bacon).  I may just go that route and see.  Also, I have...

    Smoked Lobster Tails?

    Good point.  I guess if I want to eat it I can finish the bacon in a pan or oven when the tails are done.  Thanks guys!

    Smoked Lobster Tails?

    Good point.  I guess I can either not eat the bacon, or finish it is a pan or oven when the tails are done.  Thanks guys!
