Edit: sold all our five pound bags. Not sure about the backside but I do know to season the meat side. Of course (shameless plug ) we’re gonna use Nell’s sweet heat. Same recipe for going on a dozen years. We got it in stock right here. One pound bags and a few five pound bags.

Season backside of ribs or no? I always do but I wonder if it’s really necessary. I’ll let em sit a few minutes then do the tops.

Love when he says, am I lazy? No, I’m smart. lol. I bought smokers from Mark Lambert, been to his place in Mississippi and he is probably one of the most knowledgeable bbq guys around. Our cto turns out great bbq consistently and I can sleep like a baby. It’s an insulated wood/charcoal or gas convection oven. Weak men get triggered by what others cook on. I think you’re awesome if you like pellets, electric, charcoal or stick burners. I’ve cooked on em all. Enjoy doing what you like.

Trying out some Arkansas lump charcoal sold at FoodSmart. I’m assuming it’s oak and hickory given the area it’s made in Gillet, Arkansas. I got out the old BBQ Guru temp controller to use on the Weber Kamado just because I haven’t used it in a while. It works perfectly every time and it’s about 12 years old, pretty good for electronics. I prepped the butts yesterday afternoon with a binder of spicy brown mustard and Nell’s Sweet Heat BBQ Rub and fired up this morning around 1 a.m. The butts were on and I was back in bed by 1:30. Now I’m waiting on tree service and concrete guy and everything will be dismantled and replaced out here at the test kitchen (except the building ) but pretty much same concept but more covered area and cleaner looking.

Pecan wood smoke. Put in at 225, turned to 275 for 3 hours and 25 minutes. Never opened the lid. These are way past 165 and legs will literally pull off but it won’t be dry. Brining whether dry or wet brine works great. Now it’s time to let them rest in the warmer.

I’m liking the dry brining turkey better than a wet brine. Kosher salt, (added some garlic butter seasoning )uncovered on a wire rack above the pans. These will be at 2 1/2 days tomorrow morning when I put them in the smoker. Better flavor and crisper skin. I cooked the thanksgiving turkey prior to and reheated it and definitely wasn’t a fan of it so these will be my redemption turkey’s lol. I’ll also inject right before going on.
