Goat Shoulder

Smoking a goat shoulder for tomorrow night. Will put on around 8:00 AM. I think it'll take about 6-7 hours. It weights about 6 lbs. Fresh killed and Hallal.

I'll cook it over maple charcoal with soaked pecan shells, star anise and cinamon sticks.

Goat shoulder at 75 minutes in the smoker.

Love goat...can't wait to see the final product!

CEC_Tech · 08-17-2010, 10:30 AM

That looks pretty sweet! Haven't really had goat yet, but that is making my mouth water.

Well... It finished a little sooner than expected. Here's a picture of it finished. I have it covered in cello until 6:00 PM when I'll slice it.

tuxpuff · 08-17-2010, 11:52 AM

Looks damn tasty!

OLS · 08-17-2010, 12:01 PM

Whew. That improved dramatically from the smoke only shot earlier.
I'd love to taste that.

mosesbotbol · 08-17-2010, 12:08 PM

I took a little taste off the edge. Very mild and tender. For those who do not eat goat, it has a milder flavor than lamb. I thought it would take longer to cook. Will try to take a post sliced picture.

May not be the perfect place for this but....

I have a nice gas grill and dont want to have to get a smoker. Seriously considering getting a Sams Smoker Pro ... http://samssmoker.com/smoker-pro/sams-smoker-pro.html

Anyone have any experience with this? Anyone know of a better way to go about smoking using a gas grill?

Thanks in advance for the input

I used to do somethng similiar on a gas grill ages ago it's no different than a big chip box or a few foil logs of chips on the lava rocks.

In comparason to the plain gas, it will add A LOT of flavor, but not the same as a wood or charcoal smoker.

Will it work? Abolutely.

Will it taste like a charcoal or log burning smoker? Nope.

Will it taste good? Yes.

Is it easy as heck to use? You betcha.

Can you duplicate it with a cast iron pan from the local thrift store for $5 ior less and some foil across the top with a few holes punched in it? Yup.

Pretty muc sums it up exactly.

Pulled a rack of Denver ribs out of the freezer saturday, cooked them yesterday.

The garlic paste/slather is a mixture of fresh garlic (like 8-9 cloves), fresh rosemary, fresh Thai basil, three fresh cayenne peppers, thyme, oregano, black pepper, kosher salt, paprika, OO and some wet tamarind paste.

T.G · 08-23-2010, 09:55 AM

continued...

(the sausage was lunch - moved it directly over the coals to cook after I shot the photo)

Cooked with oak and some grape vines

yeah, I didn't bother with a plate, just ripped at it from the tray - almost forgot to take a picture.

bsmokin · 08-23-2010, 10:10 AM

OMG!!!!

Check this thread to see the Soldering Iron / Tin Can cold smoker. It's a heck of a lot cheaper, and is doing the same thing.

I may have mis-understood your question, but there is only a substitute way of smoking
that involves a gas grill. All of em are a poor substitute for the real thing. You CAN
smoke in a gas grill just by using a smoker box with chips in it. For some reason I just
do not like the results in a gas grill. If I had NOTHING, I would not be choosy, but
I do have a 'smoker' It is not a real smoker either, but a grill using indirect heat and smoke
envelopment. I put my ribs against anyone on the circuit, tho. I might not win, but they
would need a change of underwear. But if all you can do is light the burners on one side
and stack your meat on the other, and place a box of chips over the burners on the hot side,
you are essentially doing what I do, but without charcoal.
