I never said anything about not using it as a guide line, I use it as a guide line too for planning purposes, but some people take it as hard & set rule and the wonder why they are experiencing problems. My Rules will guarantee results if followed. 30+ yrs of tossing sticks has proven to me that the Meat will tell you when it's done and no thermometer reading or clock or scale will.

Very true that you didn't say it couldn't be used as a guideline. But the quote was "YOU CAN NOT COOK GREAT BBQ ON A CONSISTENT BASIS COOKING TO AN INTERNAL TEMP OR BY TIME(XXX MIN PER LB) YOU MUST COOK BY FEEL!". This quote is in all caps which is yelling and the text is red. So that along with the words "CAN NOT" and "MUST COOK BY FEEL" leave little room for ambiguity as to what is meant and the tone.

Obviously you have an issue that is not shared by many who are not so near sighted.You have an opinion and we all know the comparative definition of the word don't be the poster child for it. You have made your point so move on and stop trolling.Have a Nice Day.

This is all really good advice for novices like me to learn from, but one thing I just don't get:
How do you all break it to your family that lunch might actually be dinner, or potentially even breakfast tomorrow? It kind of makes BBQ an operational nightmare!

I haven't missed a promised meal time since my first cook when I am doing a pork butt, I estimate based on its weight and the temp how long it will take, then I add 3 hours to that time, and start cooking based on that.
when it is done I put it into a warm cooler wrapped in towels, and I serve when everything else is ready, or when my wife says it's dinner time. I have no clue when dinner will be done, so I figure that into my method. |

There has already been good advice given but one thing I do when I am on a tight schedule and the group still wants BBQ – I smoke the butt the day before ( even longer if needed). I pull the pork and vacuum seal it (with a little apple juice and sauce) then toss it in the fridge. About an hour before we eat I toss the vacuum bag in some boiling water until it is heated through. Granted it is not the same as just off the smoker but I have not had any complaints and I am not stressed out around the cook. |
