james found his feet!





James found his feet and he LOVES grabbing hold of them!

2nd attempt at smoking meat!



This time, I cooked a 5 pound pork boston butt for 10 hours at 225 degrees and it turned out fantastic! I used apple juice under the meat in a pan and sprayed the meat every hour or so with an apple juice / apple vinegar spray to create a nice tasty outside crust. YUMMMY! I am planning a big BBQ party this Spring and my advice would be to try and make it if you can! Oh yeah, I used hickory wood for smoking this time around...

The first picture is the raw meat covered in Stubbs BBQ rub and the second shows the finished product - PULLED PORK!

Sorry for the long delay! I am a big slacker :)

new obsession



Fairly explanatory huh! I have had a smoker for 4 years and just now decided to actually use it... Now I am obsessed. Cooked this apple stuffed turkey at 225 degrees for 4.5 hours over a pan of white wine. Fantastic.
