    Loin Chops thick cut on the PBC

    dry salt brine for 16 hours, marinade Memphis dust for 4 hours, cooked on PBC with lump charcoal-kingsford blue mix. Held the PBC at 250 for the cook. internal temps of 140-150 over a 70 minute cook. I tried real maple syrup as the stick agent before the Memphis dust rub went on. WOW was the comment from everyone, that really boosted the flavor all the way around.

    Looks good, might have to try that maple syrup idea myself.

        Did you hang those or cooked on the grate?
        This is the second time that I've heard about maple syrup "rub glue" It doesn't over caramelize and burn?

          Maple syrup really shouldn't caramelize until temps of near 320 or so, since it's mostly sucrose, or complex sugars. Fructose, or natural & fruit sugars like honey, may caramelize closer to smoking temps of 230. So when smoking your best bet is to use maple syrup, or table sugar in rubs, and stay away from honey. Then just don't let your PBC get above 320ish. The trick if you want a good brown up on pork chops done low & slow is to use a coating of honey

        Ernest I cooked them flat on the grate, the maple syrup is really not as strong a flavor as one might think. I actually thought the flavor would be stronger. It gave the meat another flavor dimension.

        Huskee has the food science angle taken care of for us.

          Credit to Meathead. I admit it, I didn't invent or discover what I know about it.

            Looks great. We raised hogs, so BBQ'd pork was a main staple growing up.

            I cooked some country style ribs with the dust, then caramelized a little BBQ sauce before serving. I took mine on up close to 200. Definitely need to do that again. I had to make 2 levels of grates on the PBC. "Ribs" got crowded.
