• xenforo has sucessfully updated our forum software last night. Howevr, that has returned many templates to stock formats which MAY be missing some previous functionality. It has also fixed some boroken templates Ive taken offline. Reat assured, we are working on getting our templates back to normal, but will take a few days. Im working top down, so best bet is to stick with the default templates as I work thru them.

Who's up for some Sunday Q? (pron)

Just got up and went outside to get things rolling for today and set off my house alarm:icon_blush: . Lit the chimney and gettin' ready to put on a butt. I'll put on 4 racks of spares around noon.

Anyone else awake?
 
I just got my fire going in the UDS, its 10:45pm here... putting on a Picnic Roast and a Pork Butt. Plan on putting on some ribs 11 hours later... estimated...:-P Italian sausages...
 
I don't have the right equipment for the "overnight cook" yet. The chargriller is a bit of a fuel hog. And I don't know if I can go more than 30 minutes without checking on it anyway.
 
I was going to pop on a rack of ribs, a butt and a fatty (rubs sponsored by Spicewine!) on at midnight last night but at 23:00 it started to bucket down with rain. ended up putting the meat on the WSM at 9:00 this morning....all going well so far....
 
I love the smell of BBQ in the morning! Not sure if the neighbors do :wink: .
They're predicting rain today... seems like every time I Q this summer, it rains. :eek: Good thing I have these huge tents! :biggrin: I had 25 people over on the 4th of July, and everyone was under the tents - no one was inside.

3 hours and 2 cups of coffee in... I'm starting to get tired, went to bed around 11 last night. :icon_sleepy Definitely need to take a nap today.

Just about ready to brine my "Kiawe Chicken"...it's a 4 hour brine and a 4 hour smoke...pics to follow. :-P
 
Looking good Brother, I just got 60# of chicken put on the pit.
 
Chicken on the brine...salt, garlic, lemon, lemon thyme.

All that's left is time...and a little mesquite...more pics to follow after the smoke:biggrin:
 
A good friend's Traeger is on the frtiz and he needed a couple butts cooked for a dinner on Monday. I put 18lbs of butts on around 9:00 this morning hope to have them pulled and packed after dinner tonight. I know he will pay me back at some point in the future.
 
Chicken is out of the brine and ready for the WSM. My wife had a couple of chicken breasts she wanted to smoke without the brine...just a little EVOO, salt, and pepper...(same with the brined bird)

On to the WSM (standard method) one chimney Rancher followed by another 1/2 chimney and 3 good sized lumps of mesquite. Temp holding steady at 260...:biggrin:

Well the party was a success. Everyone told me how great the ribs and pulled pork were, and almost all of them packed a plate to go too. :biggrin:
I'll post the pron pics tomorrow... I'm too tired and tipsy to do it now.:icon_sleepy

Hope everyone else's Sunday Q's went as well!
