breakfast time



ham salad sammiches and ruffles this ought to keep me up for a bit longer

 

Thanks for keeping up with the pics, cool thread idea. Meat looks perfect!

 

thank you, it is a labor of love and I can tell you I will most likely be in bed by 6 tonight

 

hour ten of meat watch 08

 

8 am meat update I think these will be ready about 11 or so, maybe I can wrap them up put them in the oven and catch a nap before everybody gets here



looking good, internal temps are at 130-135 woo hoo

 

9 am holy @#$% am I beat and yes I think 11 is going to be spot on for dinner time

 

Man I slept great!! How about you PO? Just kidding.
The meat looks great. It'll be worth the painstaking labor you put into it.
Nice Job!!

 

thanks but next time I think I will go to bed wake up around 3am and just make it a late dinner I'm gettin to old for this POO

 

10 am meat update the meat is just coming out of its plateau temp wise this phenomenon never ceases to amaze me the meat will sit at a internal temp for hours without moving and then all of the sudden it starts climbing again well its on the way up



and I dont like to toot my own horn but if meat was sexy this would be Anna Kournikova

 

well its all cooked and sitting in the oven to keep it warm wraped in tin foil and wrapped in towels put the bean pan on the grill to warm those up and then its dinner time. I hope all of you enjoyed my pictorial essay on old school meat smoking any questions may not be addressed till later tonight or tomorrow because as soon as I eat and take a shower I plan on crawling into bed and passing out for at least ten hours

 

You were killing me, I just went to the store and bought a slab of baby backs and tossed them on the smoker with a vanilla, honey, cayanne rub.
I'll be eatin' in about 5 hours.

 

well here is the day after I was in bed by 7pm and I got up at 6am without waking up once in between the meat was a big hit but it was almost a little over smoked maybe next time I'll cut the smoke off a little earlier but other than that it was great had about ten people over to the house and everybody loved it beans were good, the beef was moist and tender, the pork was just falling apart, a little tony romas carolina honeys bbq sauce on the side and fresh baked dinner rolls good eating all the way around

well its off to go christen the new harbor freight tools that just opened up now I only have to drive 24 miles instead of 50 miles (each way)

 

that looked great steve!
