You know I dont think there is a way to make a bad smoked meat. I personally like vinegar and it seems to do well when sitting with the meat for a couple days. Its not too much vinegar. Its a paste of vinegar and spices.

Some might call this blasphemy but I dont always have time to smoke things. I've got a good baby back rub pressure cooker that from start to finish takes an hour.

i got a 22" webber smokey mountain a few months ago. Been having fun with it. I just wanted to step up my game from the electric smoker. They taste the same, but the e-smoker wouldnt give me that smoke ring i wanted.

I saw this on facebook today.


https://www.masterclass.com/classes/...exas-style-bbq

Aaron Franklin is one of the top dogs in the BBQ industry, and considered THE top dog to a lot of people. He is sort of the Gordon Ramsey of BBQ. For $90, there are 16 classes on his methods of BBQ. From what I understand, the $90 is for lifetime access to the series. No way in hell am i willing to pay $90, but would 8 other PT.NET meat smokers be interested in kicking in $10 and we create a "group login" with a password?

probably not a whole lot. He lays the foundation down pretty good in all of the videos he's done over the years.

Done. I like that his BBQ is intended to be served and eaten. Not a competition cook where you're only planning to take a few select slices from a 20lb piece of meat.

in competition, a lot of teams will focus on getting an amazing few slices instead of a very good entire packer. I doubt the meat goes to waste, and someone surely eats it. In the competition world, it's all about winning some money and 95% of a full packer is just a byproduct of trying to impress the judges with the amazing 5% portion of the brisket. Aaron is a restaurant owner and cooks the entire piece of meat to be enjoyed like 98% of us would do.
