Title: ftc/reheat
Post by: zkup on July 02, 2011, 06:38:48 AM
So, just pulled my butt out of the smoker and i'm abound 8 hours from serving time.  How would you recommend I FTC/reheat from here.  Should I FTC for 6-7 hours and then reheat in oven?  And what temp/time would you use in the oven for reheating.  I'm in a middle ground in that I have always been able to serve 3-5 hours after pulling out and am not really sure how to handle.

Many thanks in advance for the advice.

Which also begs the question, when most of you recommend adding a liquid to the pan during reheat, how much liquid are you adding?  Ounce per pound or just eyeball?

When you are FTC'n for that long of a period, you want to keep your eye on the temperature. You don't want it to fall below 140°F. Sometimes a heating pad will help keep the temperature up during that time.

DC;

Since I add my vaunted vinegar when I pull the pork I don't add any other additional moisture. For the vaunted vinegar I add 1.5 - 2 cups for a full half steam table pan. Others can help you on the other liquids, but beside apple juice you can also use low sodium chicken broth.
