First time using this rub, Peter. Thanks for the confidence. The gf decided to throw a Halloween party tomorrow, so I'm cooking for a few guests as well. I'm pretty new to the smoker, but it's been a fun experience so far.

Sounds delicious.

I was given this book by a very kind and generous inmate.

Worth its weight in gold.

Remember the cardinal rule of smoking, since you are going for the guest-feeding routine....THIN, BLUE smoke,
no billowing white or gray smoke. Glad to see you are enjoying the cave-man's art...I know I never smoked
anything until about three years ago, and now I am addicted. it's such a great thing to have delicious
meat that tastes better than you can get in a lot of "barbecue" places and to have it last so long in the fridge
if you can't get to it fast enough. The magical smoke rocks.

Family coming over today.
Two racks of pork ribs the fridge I rubbed with Magic Dust last night.
Also planning to debone two whole chickens and stuff them with ham, provolone, spinach, mushrooms, onion and a little apple and top with bacon.
Rest of the bacon will be used for ABTs.

I know some have had bad luck with FoodSaver, I haven't and this is a great deal.

Shoulder rubbed with kosher salt, pepper, brown sugar and smoked paprika, wrapped and back in the fridge to rest tonight and into the smoker tomorrow morning. I think I may stuff some jalapenos with Italian sausage, panko, and grana padano and toss those on the empty racks for kicks and giggles. Maybe some wings too.

It's pretty easy to do. All you need is a tin can, a weller soldering iron (other brands seem to burn up under this misuse) and some wood chips. Clean the grates on the grill or use pastry cooling racks to hold the cheese above the grate and load the can, stuff the iron in it, put it down at the bottom, let it run for 1-3 hours depending on how much smoke it's making, how thick the cheese is and smoky you like things. After you pull the cheese off, cool it down, then vacuum seal it and leave it alone for at least a week or so.

If you have any questions, feel free to shoot me a pm.
wow great and inexpensive way to cold smoke. I have been dreaming of getting a MAK 2star but this will keep those dreams away for awhile.

Getting ready to head out and buy supplies for this weekends showdown.

LSU Alabama. Everyone wants Baby backs, i wanted brisket but they are paying so ribs it is. I have a local butcher that gets some great BB's the size of spares. Cost a little more but the pork has a clean taste that you cant get at the stores around here. Going with to rubs, one is my custom brown sugar based rub that everyone loves ( too sweet for me). Second is my favorite rib tickler. All smoked on my WSM with Hickory and cherry. Might have to get some pics up.

Hey all question on Pork Shoulder?

To date I have only made pulled pork from pork butt's I got at the grocery store. Having a house warming with a few people so got the Costco Pork Shoulder double pack.

Do ya'll trim down the shoulder and just smoke the butt for pulled pork or just throw it all on the smoker and go hog wild?

I prefer a mustard or a lexington style sauce myself. For something simple like a spiced vinegar sauce similar to what you posted, I just use Suka Pinakurat brand Philippine spicy coconut vinegar that Benedic turned me on to.


Here's two good sauces that I have found:

Miss Piggy Mustard Sauce

1 cup Mustard
1/2 cup Sugar
1/2 cup Cider vinegar
1/4 cup Brown sugar, light
2 tablespoons Chili powder
1 teaspoon Pepper
1 teaspoon White pepper
1 teaspoon Cayenne pepper
1 tablespoon Hot sauce
1 teaspoon Soy sauce, dark
2 tablespoons Butter

Combine all ingredients except soy sauce and butter. Add the vinegar last. Add to your desired thickness.
Simmer for 10 minutes.
Remove from heat and add butter and soy sauce.


Lexington sauce
(I know, not a Carolina sauce)

1 c cider vinegar
1/4 c water
1/4 c ketchup
2 t Worcestershire sauce
1 T dark brown sugar
1/2 t cayenne pepper
1 t fresh ground black pepper
1 t salt
1/2 t chipotle pepper

Simmer 10 minutes.
