Doing a corn beef is no different than doing a normal brisket. It's a tough piece of meat and takes time to break down and get tender. Soaked in water overnight in fridge, to remove some salt. Rubbed with Montreal steak before placing on grill. I smoked it for 4 hours. Temp varied. Mostly at 250 but sometimes as high as 350 short time. Hard to keep the Weber kettle consistent. Used 2 big chunks of hickory and mesquite over the coals. 1 of each at first hour and then same again at second hour. Removed,wrapped in foil then in a cooler for 1/2 hour. Wife doesn't like corned beef but loved it. Also this was a corned beef brisket at only 3 pounds. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Try the snake method in a kettle for consistent low temp smoking..has worked really well for me 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woodtick Posted April 28, 2019 Share Posted April 28, 2019 I need to go find a pork shoulder today. My FIL wants me to make the carnitas for his birthday next weekend. Could be 20 people there, going to try and find 2 8 lbs ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NaturallyAspirated Posted April 28, 2019 Share Posted April 28, 2019 Pork butts are about the cheapest and best way to go for meat cooking that can be done. Pulled, carnitas, country style ribs if the shoulder was loined out a ways. All for $1.99 a pound! Neal 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

f7ben Posted April 28, 2019 Share Posted April 28, 2019 Bacon turned out great. Sliced and vac sealed 24lb today and will try to do another 24lbs this afternoon. Did 40lbs of pork butt yesterday. I havent eaten any of that yet. Those little balls next to the butts are bacon wrapped armadillo eggs. Those were fucking awesome 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll bring enough into work Monday to feed the guys in the shop.

ckf Posted April 30, 2019 Author Share Posted April 30, 2019 Fired up the Kettle tonight now that it's melted out of the snow and ice. It still had some partially used charcoal from last year to use. I love being able to shut it down when done and save the leftover charcoal for another time. Yup, I'm that tight 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

f7ben Posted May 2, 2019 Share Posted May 2, 2019 Got a new smoker!!!!!! Large 2 door upright commercial cooler. Stainless inside and out. Going to do a propane burner. It has adjustable racks and I'm going to add hanging rods as well. Thinking I can fit an easy 120lbs of sausage in this bitch!!!! My buddy scored it at an auction and gave it to me! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woodtick Posted May 4, 2019 Share Posted May 4, 2019 Found these high temp gloves in the turkey fryer section at Bass Pro for $12. They work great for taking stuff in and out of the smoker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woodtick Posted May 4, 2019 Share Posted May 4, 2019 First hour at 275, then 6 hours at 215. Probably wrap it and raise it to 250 when I wake up? Putting in a lot of apple chips the first hour and then no wood after that. I had them soaking in orange juice, onion,and garlic over night. It’s raining out, so the electric smoker is doing all of the work,while I’m inside drinking beer. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s on tap at a few restaurants and on the shelves of the liquor stores. I found it as cheap as $8 at a local grocery store for a 4 pack. It’s a bit spendy but it’s over 5% and I don’t drink that much anymore, so I mine as well drink the good stuff. My days of getting a 30 rack for $18 ,(for swill )are long gone. Fuck Spotted Cow, fuck @jammin , and fuck @SSFB Fuck Coors Lite and that Phaggit @f7ben. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
