What did everyone cook today?

gus4416 No fat trimming, no trimming at all , in fact. The fat cap is down in both pictures. I smoked them with the fat down. I took them out of their packaging, rubbed with mustard and dry rub, wrapped them in plastic wrap and let them “dry brine” over night in the fridge. Smoked at 250F-ish to around 200F IT when the probe would go in with little to no resistance. No foil wraps or butcher paper or anything while they cooked, just let them ride. Foil wrap when I pulled them off, then wrapped them in old towels and placed them in a faux cambro (cooler) until it was time to eat. I believe I took them off around 2pm and we ate at 5:30, still nearly too hot to pull by hand when coming out of the cambro. I make a concoction that I have termed “Butt Juice” that I add after it is pulled. It is essentially a vinegar sauce…melted butter, vinegar, sugar and a spice blend.
I believe I originally found the “butt juice” recipe as a sliced pork shoulder dipping sauce. It was pretty spicy in it original form so I toned it down a little bit in this adaptation.
RafterW thanks for all the details on your cook, can’t wait to tell my brother in law about the “butt juice”, I already know he will love that idea as well as the name!

Just a nice little lobster roll over bacon on banks of the frio river. Just because you’re in nature doesn’t mean you can’t be fancy!
HerbcoFood You are like the chef a medieval king would take with him while traveling the country lol! That is definitely a classy meal for the banks of a river.

HerbcoFood Oh man that looks amazing!! Love lobster, I want to be closer to the ocean so I can get better sea food but ALSO be far away from the ocean for not getting eaten reasons!

It’s not a lobster sammie, but tasty nonetheless.

Starting the egg for a smoked spatchcock chicken, you’ve just got to let them help, even if it’s one step forward and two steps back for you; leaps and bounds forward for them every day.

RafterW Soon you will be able to sit back with a nice drink and just supervise from the porch. You have to have patience and pass it on.
