So I just picked up my new 22.5 WSM, and thought I would break it in with some Jerk Pork.
I got a 8lb butt, boned it and butterflied it.
Made a wet Jerk paste and marinated it for about 3 hours.
The new 22.5 WSM
Put the butt on with about a chimney of unlit Kingsford and half a chimney of lit, with hickory for flavor. This thing held dead steady at about 240*, for the entire cook, about 3 hours.
I finished the butt over direct heat to crisp things up a bit.
Cut into large chunks.
Served with “peas and rice”, and a little salad.
The food was great, very spicy, but great. The WSM performed better than I could have hoped for our first outing. I still have a lot to learn about this cooker and quite a few questions, but that’s another post. Thanks for looking.
