    BGE Pit Crew, Swamp Venom dusted chikkie wings, black cherry smoked, finished off with a mixture of Blue's Hog and Tenessee Red for the sheen and messiness.

    BGE Pit Crew,[p]Smoking a 5 lb brisket flat (DP "Raining the Steak" rub) with oak wine barrel chucks. Temp now at 149 and smellin' goooooood!![p]Smokey
  • BGE Pit Crew,[p]That's amazing. I just got back from my favorite market which is celebrating it's 75th anniversary. They had tenderloins and Alaskan King Crab Legs both on sale for $5.99/lb. So, that's what I'm cooking too![p]Cheers!

    Dana - I'm not sure what we will be cooking today. We're going out on the boat for the afternoon, so hopefully some fresh bbq'd salmon for dinner!
  • smoking 2 racks of baby backs, s/b ready about 5:30 tx time.

  • Decided to load up the egg so I got a 8.5 pound whole brisket and a 5 lb butt sharing the egg's space. I used Willingham's Wham rub on the brisket and Bad Byron's Butt Rub on the butt. This is the first time that I have used either so I'm anxious to see how the rests will be. Also smokin with pecan which is a first as well. Probably too many "first" to determine which works well or not but we will see how it all turns out.[p]Rich in Clarendon Hills, IL

  • BGE Pit Crew,
    Put an 8 lb pork butt on yesterday at 5 PM. All was well at midnight (230ish dome) but awoke at 5 AM to find the thermo at 150 (I'm guruless). Restoked the egg and added 2 3 lb chuck roasts. It's now 1:30 and I'm at 172 in the butt and 155 in the beef. I'm hoping to be pulling both pork and cow by 6 PM, aiming for 200ish internal on both. I'm still kinda green (like my egg) so if anyone has any tips to help me get a (quality) meal on the table by 6 PM I'd be grateful! Looks like my next purchase will be a Guru!

    BGE Pit Crew,
    Spatchcocked chicken with a honey mustard marinade, steak kabobs with coffee rub, grilled peaches, grilled pineapple, and a side of green beans. Add a spinach salad and a nice Belgiam beer (Gouden Carolus - Triple)

  • Anestheggthiologist,
    If it were me I'd remove the pork butt at 192 degrees, wrap in foil and towels and place in a warm cooler until the roasts are done.

  • BGE Pit Crew,
    Just doing some chicken thighs and corn tonight.[p]Did a 5lb organic brisket yesterday though. Indirect at 250 for 10 hours with the last one wrapped in foil. Best one yet. My daughter then bumped the temp up to 350 and baked brownies for dessert. [p]It's been a good weekend for egging.[p]Paul

  • Hasenpheffer,
    Thanks, that's likely what I'll try. I'm in that plateau "black hole" as the butt is now down to 168 and the roasts are at 149. Fortunately I have lots of beer and patient guests. We'll eat when we eat! Besides, Tiger doesn't tee off for another 45 min. I'm not going anywhere.

    BGE Pit Crew,[p]Tri-Tip (3.5- - 4lbs). Marinated in EVOO, garlic and DP Raising the Steaks. Added JD chips for smoke. Basted with EVOO mixed 50/50 with Red Wine Vinegar. Cooked at a 275 - 300 dome temp until internal reached 170+. Still a little pink inside and very juicy and tender. Side order of pinquinto beans and a nice fresh salsa. Very good, but next time I will use a lot more garlic and RTS.
