Thread: Need smoking help.

I smoked the pork this weekend. I bought 15lbs at Costco for $1.99/lb. I smoked it over Hickory for about 6.5 hours and then finished it off over the stove in some homemade sauce. I will upload the pictures in a bit.

I came into this forum tonight to give homer some crap about what happened....

He better have some damned good pictures and tell more about the process from this tease!!

(Damn...just thinking about this thread is making me hungry....don't forget the pickles!!!)

is this part of the no on 8 campaign?

Here is the smoker in all of it's smokiness glory.

The pork with the rub awaiting it's fate.

Smoke away.

After several hours over hickory and apple juice.

The finished product with homemade coleslaw and an Alaskan Amber.

Like I said in previous posts I under cooked it a bit so I put it in a pot with a vinegar based sauce for about 30 minutes. I am kind of impatient and I open the lid way to many times. I heard every time you open the lid it adds 10 minutes to the cook time.

When I first started cooking a neighbor of mine came running out of his house checking the eaves for flames. He thought that either the condo was on fire or I had LGKers over. Hickory was a good choice of wook, not to string but has a good flavor. Next time I will try oak.

did you post pics? they didn't show up on my browser..how much longer do you think it would have taken to cook, and what temp was smoker for 6.5 hours?
