I have a nice 9.7 lb Boston Butt dry brining for tomorrow. I stopped at Home Depo to pick up a bag of the kingsford mini logs. I bought misquite to give that a try. It pained me dearly to buy logs but I wanted to give it a try. I'm currently thinking I'm going to run the first hour and half to two hours with both selectors open. Then just finish with the bottom open.

5 hrs in. The first two hrs i had the max temp at 210. Also for the first 1hr and 15 mins I had both selectors open. I'm using a mixture of cherry and mesquite. After the first two hrs I bumped the max temp up to 253. I'm not sure which is nicer the color or the smell.

[KARB2014]

Just under 7hrs and it powered right throught the stall. 171 internal temp. I will get a picture next time I open it up.

183 she is barking up nicely. It a different bark than I'm used to. It has goid color but it is still soft and tender. The "money muscle" is fall apart tender right now.

These pictures are right before wraping and holding. This was a nice cut, probed like butter at 193. I'm gonna hold it for 1hr.

Wow! Hope to do this someday (newbie here) - looks perfect!

[KARB2014]

PSULion you will just follow the recipe and you will be fine. What type of cooker are you using?

[Spinaker]

How was it mixing mesquite and cherry?

[KARB2014]

I liked it a lot. It was nice because the mesquit would coal up nicely and the cherry would burn down with the mesquite coals. The flavor was really good but I never did staight mesquite on the kbq so I have nothing to compare it to.

Looking good! How did it taste?

[KARB2014]

It was good, the bark was different than what I get with the sns and pbc. The smoke was there and good but it is deffenatly different, but in a really good way. I have no idea how discribe it.

KARB2014 those are some outstanding looking butts! Well done.

[KARB2014]

Thank you.

[Spinaker]

KBQ strikes again! Nice work my friend

[KARB2014]

Thank you. It worked it's magic on the 4th as well. I will try to get pictures up of that. I wasn't able to get many pictures of that though. The one Picture I did want to get I didn't because as soon as I cut the baby back ribs they were gone. The whole rib down to the bone was one big smoke ring.

[KARB2014]

Here is the only two lousy pic I was able to take of my 4th of July cook. There were 4 racks of beef ribs and 5 racks of pork baby back ribs. I was not able to take pics after they were cut, but the pork ribs were one big smoke ring.

[PSULion]

Wow - these look awesome too! Are those the short plate beef ribs?

[KARB2014]

Thank You. They weren't short plate, I believe they were back ribs. They weren't labeled well and the inlaws just had me cook them. I do have some Short ribs I want to cook this weekend.
