Here’s what we had at my house last night for our dinner. Smoked on my newly acquired rec tec thanks Geoff. Smoked for approximately 7 hrs at 225 internal temp was 120 removed and let rest for a couple of hrs. Internal temp at time of slicing was 137 a little higher than I wanted. Still came out delicious. I used BIG DOG Prime Cut Seasoning. Want to thank Dan at Big Dog for everything you have done for me in the past year and a half.
