Title: 1st butt update
Post by: got smoke on July 25, 2010, 06:06:44 AM
been in since 10:30 last night my 8# boston butt. decided on 4 hours smoke of apple and alaskan butt blast rub. I haven't got the picture thing figured out yet ::). She is sitting right at 165 deg. guessing I am at the stall temp hasn't moved for 1-2 hours. smells good having trouble not sticking a fork in it for a little piece. checked it with second probe to make sure temp is right and lovely juice bubbled out!! made a sauce up sweet and tangy for dipping that is kinda similar to bone suckin sauce, anyone use that here?

I just did an 8 lb butt and cooking at 210 my IT at the 14 hr point was 169 deg. At 15 ½ hours I bumped the temp up to 225 degs and it took another 4 ½ hours to get to an IT of 190 degs. 23 hours total. I hope that helps.

That's my kind of Smoking. No pressure!

I think if you leave things alone, it will be a learning experience.

But if you are in a hurry, bump up the temp.

Me? I'd let it ride and enjoy a cold one.

Well it might take a little longer now butt no problem, it is just you and your butt. I tried Habs vaunted vinegar sauce it was good but then I just took some bbq sauce and thinned it with some rice wine vinegar. I really like that.

Here's a quick vinegar sauce that you may like.

2 Cups Cider Vinegar
2 Tablespoons Brown Sugar
2 Teaspoons Salt
1 Teaspoon Fresh Ground Black Pepper
1 Teaspoon Cayenne or Red Pepper Flakes

Mix ingredients and stir till sugar is dissolved. Serve at room temperature or chilled.
