Maiden voyage with a Smobot

I've got a BBQ Guru that I will sell at 70% of what I paid. Includes carrying case. Any takers?

@YukonRon I think your next toy should be the Spitjack 

I would unintentionally harm innocent people or myself with such a device. That bad boy looks like it could marinate Stone Mountain.

Ron....I think you can mod a good pair of Suzy’s pruning shares. Nice brisket there my friend. Always enjoy reading about your escapades....prefer to be present though.

GoooDawgs

completely agree that this injector is overkill (and overpriced).  I wanted a new injector for Christmas and told my wife about it - in a halfway kidding way since I definitely don't crank out the volume to justify it. That being said,  it is fun to use and will last a lifetime. And it makes you want to inject everything that goes on the egg!

Nice work, indeed!  There's nothing like the sweet smell and taste of success.  I've had a spitjack for quite some time but recently bought one of these andfind it equally as impressive.

Thank you Robin, the evening turned out pretty well. As you know, my friends from the BGE forum are always welcome in our home. You folks, are our family.
I would never touch my Beautiful Wife's pruning shears. That would be even more dangerous to my health. There is some things I have learned to respect; Suzy's gardens, and her gardening tools. I know I am the heavy labor she uses for her garden, and that is about it. I dig and carry. And say "Yes Dear".

If I had that thing I would build it a shed.
Awesome looking injector for sure.

@YukonRon...I dig and carry, too.  My self acclaimed title around here is Plant Manager, reporting to the Chief Home Officer.  I don't mind a female boss....sometimes has benefits.

Thar looks pretty cool. We have some injector fans it seems in this forum.

I used about 9 oz of the cheat sauce, and mopped it a couple times.

It is worth a try if you have not done it.

RajunCajun

I actually rarely inject.  Mostly poultry if I do.  What cheat sauce are you referring to?

YukonRon

@RajunCajun

50% low sodium beef broth, 25% onion juice, 25% garlic juice. Mix well. I also use it to mop with. Does not effect the crust at all.

Brisket is the only cook where I will use the cheat sauce for injecting.

Unwrapping the meteorite:

About 1/2 gone at this point, cam back to slice more (plenty of drunk slices never made it to the table, our guests, were like sharks circling in the water)

YukonRon

Oh yeah, granddogger took a nap

Thanks!  Where do you get the onion and garlic juices?

I have been getting them at the grocery store, typically found in the spice section. Meijer and Kroger stocks them.

RajunCajun

Thanks for the info.  You da man, for sure!!!

Man I have been MIA for a while. A lot of new things floating around. Never even heard of Smobot. Brisket looks good.

I need to stop reading @YukonRon posts. First, I start drinking better wine. Now I’m thinking about a Smobot. Let’s don’t even think about the damage bourbon slushies can cause...


Wait a minute. Now that I think about it... Sir, thank you for guidance and wisdom. You and others around here are making my life better.

I have to say, I am impressed by that pice of equipment.
Thank you for the compliment. It worked out really well, juicy, fork tender and full of flavor.
Glad you are back.

Thank you for the kind words. This was a fun cook, and the results were very, very good.
We are having the meager leftovers today, watching the Pats and Jags.

I absolutely recommend the Bleu cheese coleslaw with brisket. It was the perfect compliment. Making wraps today using brisket and the slaw, they are delicious.

And you sir, are a wealth of knowledge for me. Thank you, for all of the help you have sent my way.

You make us proud my friend... dang that looks good...

Thank you for the kind words. It turned out really well. Tastes even better next day when warmed up. Making roll ups and slider today.

The end of a very good brisket,
Some burnt ends, instead of chili:

Um, I was the guilty party on that one. 
The rest went to everyone at the house today. Did not last long.
