  • tonight i will stay up late

    doing some smoked meat for BDW

    2 huge pork shoulders have been sitting in the fridge for over a day, covered in garlic, salt and chili powder

    there are also 2 full beef ribs, covered with chili, salt, garlic, cayenne pepper, brown sugar and toasted cumin

    will stay up late and fire up the smoker about 2 hours before bed, once up to heat the pork will go on, once the temp has stabilised i shall go to bed.

    given the rain etc i think it will take quite a while for the meat to cook - probably 12 hours or possibly even more.

    just debating whether to put the ribs on at the same time as the pork, or to wait until morning

    given the degree of flesh on the ribs i think they may well take a similar time to the pork

    I have some pecan and hickory chunks to use for smoking flavour
