Remembering which is which (Allergy question)

[scottranda]

I have a friend who is allergic to ginger. The MMD rub has ginger in it, and I just made a batch. I have 2 pork butts going on tomorrow (one with MMD and the other not). How do you remember which is which if rubs/butts look the same.

[Jerod Broussard]

Split one and flare it out.

[scottranda]

Butterfly it?

[Polarbear777]

Could put a thin metal skewer in one.

[scottranda]

I have a massive metal skewer. Which I had a smaller one. Good idea though!

toothpick(s)

[fuzzydaddy]

Yep. My thought exactly.

[RonB]

[texastweeter]

[scottranda]

[Mr. Bones]

Cool Beans, have a happy git together, an a Great Cook!!

Put a hole the size of the tip of your thumb in one. Maybe crater would be better description, very small.

Or don’t mark em at all & let your friend tell ya which one is which. 😎

The toothpick idea worked for me. Nobody (yet) has called me up and filed a lawsuit! One thing I noticed is when I was pulling it, some of the dye from the wooden blue toothpick got in the meat. I didn’t say anything and just mixed it all together. But I used wooden toothpicks. Should I have used plastic? I was afraid it was going to melt if I used plastic.

Never use colored wood toothpicks in hot food.

[EdF]

Right-o!

[Mr. Bones]

Use wooden, but not dyed, as ya have seen,
