IU fan? we forgive Porky, it still seems to be doing a good job on those meats. What are you doing with all the free time while WSM does it's work?

Looks great, how did it taste?

 

[thunter]

BigAl,

The taste was great! And I did a couple of things different this time...

1. I usually do three rounds of smoke (hickory) with 3-5 chunks each smoke. This time I only did one round of smoking with 5 chunks. I got a good smokey flavor without masking the flavor of the pork, rather, enhancing it.
2. I usually use Kingsford briquettes. This time I ditch them. I went out got two bags of Royal Oak lump and jumped in with both feet. The lump lit faster in the chimney, it was even easier to control the temps, and the smoke smelled... well, cleaner. I don't know, but it was a better smell than what I get with kingsford. I'm sticking with lump!
3. I used the 2-1.5-1 at temps between 235* and 250*. I usually stay between 220-225. They turned out great.

Do u ever notice like an amonia type smell u burn kingsford? I notice an off smell when i use the WSM. i only use kingford and chunks. havent tried lump in it yet. but i get a very over whelming smell after everything starts cookin a few hours in. i use water in the pan and the steam makes it come right to the top.

In fact, I do. However, I realized it just when I fired up the lump. I got a real clean smell that kingsford does not have; now I see what others have been talking about.

Well, I gotta tell y'all that I highly respect the opinions of the people on this site. So, when you guys tell me these look good I am really quite honored! Thanks guys! :grin:
