Title: Newbie to the Bradley
Post by: bguenther4 on December 27, 2010, 06:24:15 PM
 Omaha, NE. Just got a new Bradley digital 6 rack. Wanted to smoke some cheese and sausage for football game thurs, and quickly found out via forum that cheese must sit for a few weeks. I am going to attempt pulled pork. any tips/hints/guidance for this and sausage is appreciated. the one thing that I have found the most is the phrace FTC, which I dont know what this means. one last thing, would it work to smoke summer sausage that is already processed? Thanks, look forward to getting started.

  FTC= Foil (double wrap the meat in aluminum foil) Towel (take the double wrapped meat and wrap in an old towel) Cooler (put the wrapped meat in a room temp cooler -no ice). Leave it for an hour or two

As far as cooking-  here is a recent post with a number of options

Hi bguenther4 and welcome to the forum.  Gus has you covered on the FTC description.  You normally want things to rest a while and the FTC keeps it hot.

Be very patient with the pulled pork.  Mine usually takes right around 24 hours cooking to complete.  Make sure you leave the vent 1/2 open and water in the bowl ALWAYS. 
I recommend the maverick temp probe to tell when it is really 'done'
