I've had one of those "R2D2 smokers" since 1986. Not the same one...we're on #7, as they do burn out and then cost less to replace as a whole than in parts. They're still under $50 for the charcoal-fired version we use with hardwood charcoal and hunks of wet wood for the smoke.
We'll smoke a 4lb shoulder for about 6 hours, bringing it up to final heat toward the end of the run. I say "about" because this ain't rocket science, it's BBQ and involves beer and whatever else I've got going that day. We usually "wet smoke", meaning there's a bowl of (boiling) "marinade" between the coals and meat, catching the juices and keeping things moist. We've usually got black pepper, beer, orange rind, herbs de provence and whatever else I'm looking to clear out of the cupboard in the marinade. We use hickory, manzanita and/or oak for smoke, usually. |

nothing else compares. salt, pepper, vinegar and smoke, thats all you need.
get one of those r2d2 looking smokers, they rock and you can do two shoulder at time. header paint flame job optional.

That's not a smoker...
This is a smoker...
I'm on the shoulder tomorrow. Sounds good.
Wife wants me to smoke a bunch of chicken too.
May as well find some hunk of beef too.
mmmmmmmmmm |

Just found out that an old friend...who happens to be an executive chef...will be joining us Sunday. I'm in charge of smoking, he's doing sides based on the meats. (I had to give him my dry rub recipe...and all my little cooking tricks and "styles"). He says he's gonna match it.
Get out my fat pants...I'm eatin' Sunday.
Both our wives will be doing...nothing. |
