Pre NEPA Smokeout Butts

[NePaSmoKer]

I got 3 butts all injected and rubbed down going in the fridge for a thursday smoke. I also have 2 briskits marinating for friday.

1 of 3



All wrapped tight.



Remember if your going to be around its the 20th starting whenever you get here  ;D

Let's see... about $1,000 for "last-minute" airfare plus some more for a rental car and a place to stay.  Looking at your prep, it's pretty tempting but not likely to happen.  I will be on the east coast in mid-September, though - how about a reprise?

The butts have stalled some with the IT. The one on the right is at 170* and the left is at 148* I'm going to switch them soon.
This was taken at the 5.5 hour mark. Both have been sprayed with a mix of apple juice/apple cider vinegar and canola oil.

[KyNola]

NePaS,
Those look great!

While I won't speak for SS, you asked am I ready.  My response in my best Michael Buffer voice would be "LET'S GET READY TO RRRUUUMMMBBBLLLEEE!"

You are killing me with how good those butts looked.  I just ate and I am suddenly really hungry.  Where's the shack sauce? :D

KyNola

SS, NePaS is taunting us!  Are you gonna take that?

[Smokin Soon]

Only thing I can fight back with is Meatloaf! 4 pounds ground beef 1 pound Jimmy Dean Hot. Mixed, flattened it out, laid on some sauteed onions, schrooms, bacon, longanisa [filipino sausage], green pepper and a light sprinkle of shredded sharp cheddar and fresh ground Parmesan. 2 and a half hours of Hickory and cook to 160.





And a couple of pork country ribs too.

[NePaSmoKer]

SS that looks really good. Did you roll the sausage into the meatloaf. I never had filipino sausage.
