    This week's adventure. Pork picnic in progress with chili to follow - Q View included

    Here she is at 6 hours, holding a steady 154F internal. Shortly after my last post, my ECB temp was dropping again and my fire pan was clogged with an insane amount of ash. I don't know if it was the steady cross breeze or the bag of charcoal or what, but I have never produced that much ash...

    This week's adventure. Pork picnic in progress with chili to follow - Q View included

    Honestly I've never done it before. Never had pork chili in my life. The idea came to me a few weeks ago (I know, some people are late learners). Figured I'd take a shot this week. I took that pork chop, sliced it up and put a little chili on top. If that's any indication of what I'm in for...

    This week's adventure. Pork picnic in progress with chili to follow - Q View included

    Hi Everyone, This week I'm tackling a 7.55lb pork picnic. I got her rubbed down with a variety of spices from my cabinet, and injected with a mix of hot sauce, Worcestershire and apple cider vinegar. Smoking around 225-250 over hickory and applewood. The goal is to get to 190, chop/slice the...

    Bad start to first time minion

    x2. It takes a surprisingly small amount of charcoal in your chimney to get the minion method rolling at smoking temps. If you go even half a chimney it's definitely going to shoot you above 300 in a hurry. The key is to restrain yourself at the beginning and only light a relatively small amount...

    What are you cooking on your ECB this weekend?

    There she is, right out on Dorchester Street, the neighbors love it. I usually set it up like a tailgate right behind my truck. Limited yard space plus from this vantage point I can keep an eye on it out my kitchen door from a few feet away. Eventually I'll get a Maverick 732 but in the meantime...
