Helpâ—ï¸ Souix Veee Dooo Tips and Suggestons For Whole Pork Butts‼ï¸
This Question Relates to My Upcoming Debut As An "EXPERT BBQ'ER" at The Upcoming Ace Hardware BBQ FEST, 5 May 2018â“ The Problem is TIME & SECURITY at the Store Hrs are 8:00AM to 8:00PMâ—ï¸As An Overnight On Sight is Impractical, I Said to Myself "Self You Need Help"â€¼ï¸ I Also Remembered That I Own a Jouel, If I Can Find Itâ“ As It Is a BBQ Event, I Want The Butt to Have a Smoked Taste‼ï¸
And Thanks For Your Support‼ï¸
From a Backyard Cremator in Fargo ND, Dan
Why not smoke it at home to the stall or more, then cambro it in and finish it up in time for pulling at lunch?
It it will be like magic. :-).
You could SV a whole butt, but that may be more work then just starting it at home and it would take a very long time to tenderize (1-3 days depending on your chosen temp). I like QVQ but not for everything.
I'm Taking My Webers to Ace Might Be To Big of Hassleâ“ My Other
Thought Was to Smoke Them on The OK Joe Stick Burner, Wrap and
Faux Cambro, Finish on the Weber, S 'n S with Drip & Griddleâ—ï¸ Still
Might but I Have To Keep As Real As Possible for Product Demonstration Purposesâ€¼ï¸ Dan
Hmmm, it seems that ACE is showcasing their grills and what can be done with them. Going with the "lowest common denominator" concept (meaning first time grill owners), I wonder if something like pork ribs that you can cook in staged batches might be a better demonstration. You can show realtime the benefits of low and slow while explaining how that process can be applied to larger cuts like butts and briskets. Perhaps a previously cooked and pulled butt in a steam table or some such contraption would be a good example, while the ribs can be experienced as they cook. Just a musing on my part.

@CaptainMikeâ—ï¸ Cap I Apologize If I Sound a Bit High Toned in My Responseâ—ï¸ It's Due To the Fact That the Ace Store Is My Neighborhood Storeâ—ï¸ It Started As As A Coast to Coast and Was
Either the First Or Second Store to Open In the Northport Shopping Centerâ—ï¸ The Previous Ace Store Owner Closed Itâ“ It Remained Closed for Several Years, Devastatingâ—ï¸ Two or Three Yrs Ago Zach,
Gen Mgr & ("YOUG 30-35") Opened the Store As the Northport Burgraffs Ace Hardwareâ€¼ï¸ So Thank You Very Much for Your Support, Capâ€¼ï¸ A Good Day of Fun & BBQ for All or I'm Not the BACKYARD CREMATORâ€¼ï¸ Dan

Not high-toned at all, I misunderstood the point of the BBQ Fest. It sounds like a great community event, the kind I like! If I lived there you can bet I'd be there at your side.
All good thoughts above, Danjohnston949! I'd like to add another. Do a half pan of brats (or any kind of sausage) with beer and sliced onions. This is easy to cook, smells great (and that will reel public in!), easy to slice up and serve with a toothpick right in the pan. Have a squirt bottle of brown mustard or a mustard sauce to go with. Have FUN!
CandySueQ, Your Suggestion Is Going Into My Evernote Recipe File and I Thank Youâ—ï¸ OBTW, Serious Eats Has A Very Promising Recipie for S-V Q Pork Buttsâ—ï¸ Trial Run This Weekendâ—ï¸ â“ â—ï¸ Daan
I figure you want to do some cooking at the site, so I'd do a few hours pre-smoke, SV according to any of the guys in the notes, then when on site, smoke a few hours more to bring up the temp and bark.
So, Temp is doneness, time is tenderness.
I do my brisket lower and slower, like 135x72. It’s not like traditional brisket, because it’s not well done, but has all the collagen breakdown of the traditional cook. And more juice in the brisket. I’ll write my my process next year when I have a bit more confidence in it, but it’s smoke first to 130it, bag, soak at 135x48-72 (pinch test for tenderness), shock, smoke again to 130-135.

Spinaker, Is There Any Way To Post To Two Threads Simultaneously
For Instanceâ—ï¸ This "Thread "and "Show Us What You're Cookingâ“â“
Thanks John, Dan
The Kenji recommendation should work. But reserve the purge (clarify by boiling and filtering if desired) and add back to the pulled product. 165 will produce a ton of purge and dry pork.
@Porkettlblack, How Long at 163* F Would You Recommend â“ I Planned on Saving The Purge But Hadn't Thought Far Enough Ahead
To Consider Boiling It and Straining Itâ“ Any Other Tips or Suggestion

Speaking of ribs, mgaretz "Blasphemy Ribs" could be a good option. If you did that, I really like "Maple Cayenne Ribs". The glaze you make is intoxicating!
