Anybody Hungry For BBQ?

[5.4 Shelby]

This is another one of my passions. Today it is 16 Boston Butts (Pork Shouder). 130 pounds precook. Will cook about 12-14 hours.

Here is my rig. Hand cut and welded by a local guy. Lives about 1/4 mile from me. 6' x 4' cooking surface. Big enough to fit a decent hog on. I will be doing a hog in July for the first time.

It is close to full today. I could fit more on, but, you need some working room and you want to avoid putting meat too close to the smoke inlet. It gets too hot and cooks too fast.

Here they are about 4 hrs into the cook. When they are done, they will be black on the outside.

Kevin,

I'm a BBQ nut as well. I cook on a Primo Oval XL ceramic grill/smoker. I was thinking about cooking a couple of pork butts this weekend as well.

Do you ever post over at Addicted to BBQ? Lots of good people and info over there.

Where do you live and what time should we all arrive? Can I bring anything?

5 of them are for my nephews college graduation. Since I was cooking on the big one anyway, My BBQing friend is coming over to help with them later and he wants 4 for himself. Then we sold the other 7 to friends and coworkers.

If you ever bring Detail Fest to Indiana, let me know. I would love to cook for something like that and get some hands instruction on while I am at it.

I have not. I will try to check that out later. Thanks for the tip.

Is the Primo similar to a Green Egg?

I agree!!! :hungry: :hungry: :hungry:

I just finished lunch and now I'm hungry again thanks to those pictures!

Here is the back side of it. That smaller barrel is where you burn the wood. I am using straight hickory today. For a big roast, I like the bold flavor of the hickory to penetrate the meat.

Here is better shot of the smoke rolling out of the stacks.

I'm really hungry now. That looks good. I'd like to see a post when you cook the whole hog!

Great looking smoker. I'm smoking a few butts and chucks for a graduation party in a few weeks. I've got a big green egg (not very big in comparison to yours!) Had it for about 2 years now, and it is fantastic for smoking and grilling. I built my outdoor kitchen around my egg. A lot of eggers bake on theirs, but I built a wood fired oven for that. I'll be smoking a few racks of baby backs tomorrow for a pre-Mom's day celebration and then a whole filet on Sunday for all the Mom's in our family. I can smell the pork and smoke from your pics!
