What is "pork ... carnitas"? Before reading the label, this package of meat looked like a small butt, but it was labelled carnitas.
What are "pork grilling strips"? I've seen these alongside the pork ribs in my local HEBs ... looks like it might be 2-3 skirt pieces from ribs, but I don't know ...
Now for the cool thing. I'm a pretty serioues rook when it comes to smokin'. However, by virtue of having my smoker for a bit, and a buddy of my wife's only having his for a short time, I'm becoming a teacher next tuesday! I'm doing a brisket (smallish, 9lbs or so), a pork loin, and probably 4-6 racks of ribs for National Night Out here in our neighborhood. I'm working from the house as I tend the fire. Our friend will be coming over in the morning, and watching me season the meat, build a fire, get the pit up to temp, maintain that temp, check meat consistency/doneness, foil ribs + brisket, etc. I'm totally excited. I know I still have a TON to learn, but this site, plus some trial and error has taught me tons, and I get to pass that on. It's gonna be great. The only downside? I can't drink the cold beer, since i'm technically "working" ... tradeoffs, for good Q.
