4 hours of Mesquite ;D with a cabinet temp of 260* Hope to be done in 12 hours. started at 3:00

While those were smoking I cranked up the Keg and grilled some marinaded chicken thighs and marinaded pork fajita.

Looks good CRG.  I feel your pain.  I've only had time to smoke once in the last 2 months or so.   Too much work and other stuff going on.  I made ribs and I gotta tell ya, I'm getting pretty good at this whole smoking business.

So what are you taking with you to camp?

We have a BIG production opening weekend.

Fish Fry on Friday nite, Cajun Hog on Saturday nite and I will only get to stay thru Monday this trip.

I will as the season goes along. Looks like they are extending our season and it (Rifle season) will

last the way thru January.

I am installing the "Smoke Pistol" on the Cajun Microwave. That will add a new twist to that show.

Just not excited about camp as I have been in the past. It is almost like work when I go there.

And the list he'll bring back ?

-  Hangover
-  4-day old beard
-  Empty shell casings from shooting at empty whiskey bottles
-  Venison from fellow camp members (shared with those who didn't get one of their own)
-  A lot of good hunting stories, created purely in the course of emptying those whiskey bottles (i.e., all of the bull that was shot).

;)   :D   ;D

First Butt out of FTC. (FTC'ed these butts for almost 8 hrs and they were still over 150*.)

Butt #2 No Pic out of FTC. (Had a Brain Fart and forgot) Pics of Butt #2 pulled.

The mesquite on the butts was pretty good. Would do it again. I knew John Henry's Texas Pig Rub was good and it was.

The Williams Spicy Pig Rub is a mild "Spicy", but has a nice flavor to it.
