Smoker Enroute

And welcome to you sir!

[The542]

Making a beautiful day of having lunch for the upcoming week



Beautiful spring day, got a killer rare cigar, some reserve port, and just pulled some spicy chorizo off after two hours of maple at an IT of 175*



Next is beer can chicken. Picked up a local free range organic bird, brined in water, salt, brown sugar, apple cider vinegar for three hours. Rubbed with evoo, Stubbs, and garlic powder. Going to smoke with apple for two hours with flying dog winter ale for two hours and finish on the weber genesis 330.



Pics to follow...

Sounds like a perfect day in my book ;)

Where did you get that shiny beer can chicken holder?

Won't be shiny for too much longer :)

[The542]

Kitchen kapers here across the street from me here in Wayne, PA

It has been the best day on the books so far his year

Now drinking while sitting my bds:



Getting there, going to finish on the weber. TBE is still in the packaging.

Nice choice of beer 542. Here are a few that I have on hand currently ;)

[The542]

Can't beat a good IPA! I have a couple 175ml bottles of the 120 and 75 that I'm saving for full load smokes. DFH HQ isn't far from here, let me know if you need any DFH brews sent your way.

I smoke meat along with wild HTF cigars of course. It's all about being productive while being OUTSIDE. Love it, the burbs are ok with the right amenities.

Pron of the BCC to follow...

So... I destroyed the "food" probe on my maverick 73 putting the chicken on the weber to finish. Reads HHH now. But the chicken was to die for, and I have a maverick 732 as a backup. Apparently I need a grilling probe to handle the 600* grill.

Look fantastic!

Don't give up on that probe just yet...   Let it cool down, then put it in a 200° oven for a while to dry it out.  Some liquid/drippings/grease might have made their way between the mesh and the metal probe.   That is it's weak link.

Will do, thanks brother

If you have it in your area, pick up Saranac's White IPA. It is a limited production spiced IPA, slightly on the sweet side but the spices and other flavorings quickly balance out the overall flavor.

It won't look like that for to long, at least mine didn't
