So a while back smokinit was nice enough to send out a few samples of the cherry mojobricks and I promised I'd give a review on them in return. Well, better late than never. :tsk:
Pork shoulder was on special this week for $.99/lb and it's been a while since I did anything other than a butt.
I have an egg and I usually use a couple fist sized wood chunks, so I got out the table saw an cut the bricks into quarters. They were the perfect size for the egg. I lit 2 spots of Humphrey's lump and threw 1 quarter mojobrick on each lit spot.
They started to smoke pretty much right away and it only took about 30 minutes until I was ready to throw the meat on.
I rubbed up the shoulder with Oakridge Secret Weapon and some Big Butz Pig Pollen.
I put the butt on at midnight, set the ique110 to 225, which I haven't done in quite a while and it came off at around 2pm the next day. Straight up on the grate, no foil, no spritzing.
Sadly I didn't get any shots of it pulled. :doh:
The color was great and it had fantastic smoke flavor. I'll definitely be looking into some more when I run out. Thanks again smokinit!
On another note. I tried some of your Purple Pork Masters Sauce and it is totally out of sight. It just might be good enough to bump Blues Hog right outta my frig. :thumb: Go get you some people!
