Injection Question - Moved From Competition - Page 2

icemn62 · 10-06-2005, 08:17 AM

Never relly looked while shopping, but are there any differences from one injector to another besides the amount of liquid held inthe barrel?

Jeff_in_KC · 10-06-2005, 02:02 PM

Not that I've seen myself. But I haven't seen 'em all obviously. I've got a cheap plastic one that actually works better than my expensive stainless steel one.

Jeff I love that avatar. Daughter used mine and washed it. Somehow the needle got chewed up by the garbage disposal. Another new toy I get to buy

Here's the one I currently use.

Holy Chit Chad you give enema's on the side ?

qman · 10-06-2005, 04:13 PM

Dem are nice, Chad, but I decided that it would be overkill for a backyard guy like me.

Had not thought about the enema thing--Maybe a side business?

I've used a lot of the throw away injectors, cheapies from Walmart, and the Cabela's ones and I actually prefer the throw aways. I like the quality of the Cabela models but they are harder to use (I have a bit of carpel-tunnel in the right hand) than the plastic.

I love my brine pump - though it really would be overkill for the backyard cook.

Anyone else notice that the Injection recipe intructions for making it has 1 ingredient not listed under ingredients?

SUGAR

Was it left out? I was going to try it tonight.

That's exactly what I was talking about... the stainless Cabela's injectors! The cheap plastic one I bought works a heck of a lot easier!

Ty, I noticed that also. I've always heard that salt and sugar should be pretty much equal in injections and brines but can you count the apple juice as "sugar"?

It fits with the rest... Boobs, Beer and BBQ - the Three B's of Life.

Anyway, to remain on topic, does anyone have any idea why that Big Bob Gibson recipe and method wouldn't work at a competition? I haven't seen Rob around in a couple of days to answer that. I personally don't see a problem with it.

Jeff, according to Mike Mills in "Peace, Love, and Barbecue", that IS Big Bob Gibson's competition method. He says it is a "Grand World Championship" recipe.

Sooo-I think it would work---well.

Peace, Love, and Barbecue page 77 and 78

Dr. Ray has a similar (sic) version of a "competition" injection mix on page 40 of Big-Time Barbecue Cookbook. Thanks Dr.BBQ

Jeff_in_KC · 10-06-2005, 10:21 PM

qman, I only ask because Rob indicates there are differences in this and how a butt would be done at comp and didn't explain why. I kinda thought the same thing you did... I just thought maybe I was missing something.
