Putting the Spicewine large to the test this weekend

Solidkick · 05-23-2008, 07:34 PM

Doing a gig for the family this weekend.....expecting about 100 people......I had planned on 4 butts and 6 brisket flats.....nephew shows up tonight with 4 more butts.....

I have no problem with space.....what I have a problem with is figuring what time to start.....they want to eat at 5PM, I've got a 30 minute drive to the party.......I figured would cooler and slice/chop hot.

We're also doing 24 pounds of hash brown cassaroles and 5 gallons of beans....chit...I should have gone to the GAB!

So I'll either be cooking or frettin' about cooking....so I may be on here off and on all night.....

I'll try to remember to take pics.....

Allow yourself enought time to get things done. You can always wrap and cooler them.
I woud figure pulling the meat at about 3 pm., foil and cooler.
Get to your destination, remove from the cooler about 4.30 and rest for half hour, then pull and slice.
You should be fine.
Good Luck..............and dont forget the pics.

The GAB woulda been easier....

Leave plenty of time for warming up the pit, look forward to some pron!

That will give the Spicebox a good workout

Have fun Kick !

Gary,

You won't have any trouble and they look beautiful.

BBQ_MAFIA · 05-24-2008, 01:15 AM

Don't for get the pics of the finished product!!!

Solidkick · 05-24-2008, 09:29 AM

Mid way point....bark is nice.......now if the rain would go away!
This will probably be the last pics as next is foil and then hold until later....

The first 3 hours were iffy, I was thinking the worst....205* with Kingsford was it until the meat started to warm....now it's clear sailing.....

VERY NICE that large spice is a good way to go

Jorge · 05-24-2008, 10:29 AM

Wore that special Diddler chimney out, didn't you?

PS: I guess my invitation got lost in the mail. I'd consider traveling for some of that casserole

Hey Solidkick how about a full shot of your spicewine.

Smokin Gator · 05-24-2008, 10:56 AM

I am going to be wishin' I had that large on Sunday night as I try to do 12 butts on a medium. I am taking the UDS just in case I have trouble fitting them all on there.
