I finally gave up on my smoker and decided to get a new smoker. I went with a bigger model but less tech. Yes, its a cheater electric smoker. My 3rd one. I need more space to cook, I don't need help getting my smoke and temp right. :-)
I've also never used injection for flavor except for pork butt or other big cuts of meat. I decided to give it a try. I developed my own injection. Basically like the other recipes you have out on the internet but I'm putting the rub in the injection and using sirracchi.
Full results not in yet but my son and I think its the best sausage we have ever had.
No sauce. Marinated the meat overnight. Injected the meat. Slow cooked the ribs and chicken. Baste it with a combo of butter and apple juice. Using a combination of Apple, Mesquite, Cherry and Hickory wood.

Not those B&B Charcoal Logs? I tried some of those recently and did not like them at all. I think they left a filmy taste on my food. They didn't burn very good and I start my charcoal on a Blackstone propane burner. [Reply]

Lump can be a bitch to start I normally place them among already started briquets. Some people just soak with charcoal lighter fluid but I get the hate for that. The best way was mentioned I have a old turkey fryer burner I use and just place the chimney over it but find briquets already glowing then placing works. [Reply]
