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.
I think you'll do fine from any choice of the 3 you gave. The only time I've had real issue with smoke quality was when I had no idea what I was doing with Mesquite. [Reply]
I only use apple wood, apple juice in the water pan with water and apple juice spritzer in a bottle from the Dollar Store. You can add some beer with the apple juice in the spritzer. Just say'n, to each his own, always good to see what others do.
