    Full time on the old fire box, kept heat real low, hit it with an apple cider spray several times, used charcoal and apple wood, drowned them in some sauce the last 30 minutes. Family loved them. I am no expert at this, but they sure were tender.

    Costco is your friend. It's commodity tasteless pork compared to what a real butcher shop gets, but it's much cheaper.

    Last weekends cook. The left wrapped in paper the right in foil. No more foil for me. The paper turned out better I think. A little more chew but still tender and juicy. Modified 321. 3 smoke, 1.5 wrapped and 30 to set the sauce.4C6E4B88-A574-4566-92BA-AA7A7AF36EDF.jpg

    Foil will always render more fat — you’re steaming the meat. I think there’s uses for both methods, but your results look great! I actually stopped foiling butts to retain a better bark (paper with a pan to keep the juices). If it isn’t being eaten immediately after the rest, I’ll consider foil wrap for safe temp purposes. Fantastic looking ribs, bud!

    Happy chompin’ :D

    Bacon, shallots and minced garlic mixed inside the patties before smoking at 275F for about 75 minutes with air fried waffle fries topped with more bacon, cheese curds, beef gravy and green onions!

    Threw a pair of 4 lb pork loins and 1.8 lbs of wings on the smoker yesterday.

    1 loin and 1/2 wings marinaded with Cajun butter and the rubbed with Meat Church Holy Voodoo.

    Other loin marinaded in Walkerwood Jamaican Jerk and rubbed with Jerk King Hot n Spicy Jerk rub.

    2.5 hrs or so on hickory.

    All came out super tasty! Forgot to snap a pic after they came off and before we ate though.

    Celebrated our friend's bachelor party. He wanted camping + smoking an alligator. I would have chosen Las Vegas + strippers. The gator was delicious!

    I can’t imagine what my wife would do if I cooked up something like that. But then again I haven’t seen any gators in Utah this year. Curious what type of wood you use on gater? The same as opossum, beaver, coyote, skunk, badger? . Actually I’ve had gater and it isn’t bad.
