    8 pound pork butt on the Grilla OG. 5 hours into the cook. IT is 170. It was still slightly frozen when I put it on.

    This is my second cook on the OG. It almost feels like I’m "Cheating" because I’ve only plugged it in, pressed a couple of buttons on my phone and then put the meat on the smoker.

      I always think pork butt defrosts faster than it does in the fridge, but I've noticed that the last two I did which were partially frozen in the middle....really didn't impact the cooking time. That center will get above 32 F fairly quickly it seems.

      Yeah, I’ve been starting my pork butts from frozen for a while now. I get the rub on them, wrap them in plastic wrap and then foil, and freeze. When I go to cook them, I literally just pull from the freezer straight to the smoker. Works great, don’t notice a difference, takes perhaps 45 minutes longer than not frozen.

    Well, on the last day of Spring, I woke up early and fired up the Slow 'N Sear Deluxe Kamado, in kamado mode, lighting the fire about 6:30AM, and kept things going until about 7PM. I dropped a 10# boston butt on first, dry brined and rubbed with MMD. At lunch time it was joined by some Nathan's franks and some Johnsonville brats. After lunch, the butt moved up to the extension grate, and I added a big mess of rib tips and skirt meat that I trimmed from four racks of spares and stashed in the freezer several months ago. So glad I saved the rib tips. They were dry brined and coated with the Rendezvous seasoning that you can find over on the free side. Rib tips served as "first dinner" around 5:30, and we had "second dinner" when I pulled the pork at around 7:30pm.

    I ran the cooker all day at 275F to 300F, and am glad I did. It got things done a little quicker, and I was very pleased with the bark on everything. Nothing was wrapped. The skirt meat served as cook treats during the mid to late afternoon...

    I got a hat and shirt that for father's day - the hat from one daughter, shirt from the other, and got a little assistance from my 5 month old "Grill Novice"... the women freaked when I turned around and opened the cooker and exposed the baby to a big cloud of smoke, haha. She just had baby+BBQ smell the rest of the day!

    That's a great looking cook, and that little sweetie pie ain't too bad either.

      Cheshire pork ribs. These are OUTSTANDING. All dark meat, very deep pork flavor, with that crispy fat down by the back of the bone.

      Had a college reunion, was feeding 20+ guys (once a house dad always a house dad I guess) so I decided to spring for some gourmet pulled pork sandwiches, 18lbs of pork butt (rubbed with MMD), homemade Cajun coleslaw, pickled onions, and Mac & cheese on the side.

      also decided it would be a good time to try running my first brisket ever, overnight… during the week while I had to work. Well, I learned a lot. Got a pretty good crust, learned lots about overnight temp control, and how to trim (or not trim) a full brisket. Regardless, it was very good, something I’m certainly proud of for a first try, and my wife and friends were pretty impressed with both my dedication and the outcome.

      Final outcome… a whole slew of food for the reunion (although we ate the brisket before the reunion based on timing and my wife’s request to get some of it fresh!)

        Cooked a rib roast on the performer with a couple chunks of pecan. My wife made scalloped potatoes and spinach. 😋

        YOLO Ribs. Was too lazy to open up the new grate probe for my Smoke, so I lit some coals, tossed some wood on, plopped on the ribs and... let them cook. How hot was the cook? Got me. I'd guess around 300F drifting down, but... it's Sunday.

        HOWEVER, I did do a little experiment. This is a full rack split in two with two different rubs. On the top, Killer Hog's The BBQ Rub. On the bottom, Three Little Pigs Memphis Rub.

        Applied rub about 2 hours before starting the cook:

        rub verdict? Yes. Both were really good. Not a TON of difference but I liked both. MAYBE a slight nod to the Three Little Pigs. Very slight though.
