Wanted some Butt for my Birthday.

Injected one 10lb'er with Chachere Butter Injection and seasoned it with Chachere's More Spice

Hope I'm the first, just a few hours early...

Happy Birthday, CRG!     Happy Birthday, CRG!     Happy Birthday, CRG!     Happy Birthday, CRG!     Happy Birthday, CRG!     Happy Birthday, CRG!     Happy Birthday, CRG!     Happy Birthday, CRG!

Them Boysters aka Angels on Horseback are pretty good.

(http://i1004.photobucket.com/albums/af165/classicrockgriller/Bradley%20Traeger%20Boston%20Butts/Birthday%20Butts/SDC10696.jpg)

They came off and in their place went Bacon wrapped dogs.

My favorite way of eating Oysters is steamed with Cold Beers.

Had 5 1/2 lbs of this:

(http://i1004.photobucket.com/albums/af165/classicrockgriller/Bradley%20Traeger%20Boston%20Butts/Birthday%20Butts/SDC10688.jpg)

Cut it into 4ths and made some slices in for garlic and smoke it for 3 hrs.

(http://i1004.photobucket.com/albums/af165/classicrockgriller/Bradley%20Traeger%20Boston%20Butts/Birthday%20Butts/SDC10701.jpg)

When that came off, the Boudain and Boudain Balls went in.

Thanks for the B-Day wishes. Larry the couple of times I smoked Boudain balls, I fryed them first.

This time I didn't and it was a partial/mistake. They are good but gooey.

I could see the Boudin balls getting gooey being out of the casing and not fried but I'll bet they still taste way good though.  I probably couldn't eat more than about two dozen right about now. :D

First Butt went to FTC at 12:00. 17 hrs from when it started.

Not bad considering all the activity in the smoker.

Another full load, and on your birthday.  It all looks good, and I have saved the recipe on oysters from Hal.  I love oysters, raw with a dash of Tabasco, smoked, and I like the ones out of Houma, La the best.  Happy Birthday CRG.

Bad Byron's Butt Rub is good, everyone knows that.

The Chachere's Butt was explosive. Full of flavor.

Can't wait to try it tomorrow.

Now Uncle Pigfat's Bubb Rubb is gonna be a player in my cabinet.

For just a Rub, it was very good.

I am gonna retest them tomorrow after they have set for a day.

Just a note on the Bologna. I vac pkg it up after the smoke and sliced it today.

I din't quite get as much of a smoke flavor as I like, but where I slice the Garlic and

made holes in the bologna, the garlic flavor is all over that bologna. Am gonna fry

a cpl pieces for a sammie for lunch.
