I had choked it off last night and this shows the ramp down. The ball valve and smoke stack are closed. I will check later to see if there is anything left in terms of lump.
Working on the first real cook on the Assassin 28, a lone 7lb bone in butt. Trimmed of excess fat, rinsed, injected with ACV + Apple Juice + SM Sweet Seduction Rub. I then rubbed it liberally with SM Sweet Seduction and left it in a half steam pan which I will use for duration of the cook. Will foil at 165 which won't be too much longer as the butt is at 146 degrees right now.
Done. Total time of six hours at 250 degrees. Nice smoke ring and good flavor. I did not use a lot of smoking wood - I need to experiment with this aspect of the cooker. It has a nice clean smoke flavor that is not over powering.
Started at ~9:15 AM and pulled at ~3:15 PM at a temp of 201 degrees:
Sauced with some Blues Hog red:
The Assassin 28 and Stoker performed flawlessly. It doesn't get any easier than this.
