You should write a book. Your writing is really enjoyable - so is the topic.

Hey - careful with those words.

Wow, gives me some ideas, as always, I only have a half an idea of what I am supposed to do, but, that is more than I often have.

Just remember. Don't go rushing to your Pots and try to make the same thing in an offset or a regular pit thinking the mopping will do wonders for your que. It does NOT work that way. Perhaps an open drum or something. I don't know.

Maybe a Santa maria grill?

Or one of those old Brick Pits that are not offset that some Lodges in the 50s and 60s built.

And FOR GODS SAKE - don't let anyone see you simmering anything.

When the guests arrive have the meat on and the simmering liquid disguised as MOP! LOL

Huh? Simminering? What's That?

I deleted a couple of posts that contained scanned images of a cookbook, that IS no longer in print to my knowledge. As much as I understand the desire to share the information, it IS still copyrighted material...unless I'm mistaken and it's now public domain for some legal reason.

If it turns out that there are no legal issues then the posts in question will be returned. Until then, please refrain from posting images of copyrighted material.

After nearly 50 years of BBQing and smoking I have recently found the myriad of online BBQ forums and was struck by the idiocy of policing another person's "unorthodox" methods or perceived "taboo" violations.

If it taste good...it is good.

Arguments of how we define it rhetorically (especially in a historical/traditional context) may have merit, but in the end it is all about satisfying food served safe without keeping folks waiting too long.

I agree

I think one of the reasons we CAN rhetorically postulate is because we cannot taste someone's samples online. My signature once quoted that
bbq is best judged by the result, not the method."

My "break my heart loinbacks" are specifically drawn from a Louisiana recipe so I agree wholeheartedly. While my SPARES are done with not foils or wraps., my loinbacks are made in a pinch by simmering the cuts in beer and strong chicken stock THEN smoking them. Of course I never like to reveal that. The ribs are brought onsite (well they used to be) as a backup if I need more stuff. They are par simmered, spiced and ready to go into my hot pit. I never rely on them as the main course though.

This is why I drew that parallel to the online community condemning flavor braising or simmering (which is as old as the hills) while gleefully embracing foil, an injection needles and canned or powdered broth to enhance flavor and augment or limit moisture retention or loss.

Gonna go simmer my brisket and then inject it with all of the juices. Then I'm gonna cook it slow for 2 hours then fast for 2 hours. Then I'm gonna cover it with sugar and hit it with a blow torch for the bark.

Really a great post Donnie!
