BBQ Pork Butt


OK, I set up my Weber kettle grill with the Smokenator 1000 and made this Pork Butt. Smoked it with chunks of apple wood!
Wow, it was soooooo good!

On a Weber----charcoals on one side, drip pan on the other---did a basic dry BBQ rub but there are tons of recipes on the net (aka you could cook it Peking style)....cooked it for about 3 hours at I suppose 275 degs, that was it! My wife had the camera at work, so didn't take a pic. Yesterday made duck broth with the carcass---intensely flavorful---will try to make some pho with it tonight or tomorrow.....

Have converted one of those old all-metal refrigerators into a smoker. The heat source? Two electric hot plates. Added an extra grill or two and a thermometer. Can smoke a large turkey in 10 hrs. Load it up with fish, chicken, ribs, roasts, gets the job done. Apply a good "rub", kick back and enjoy.:biggrin:

The first time I used it, when I made the ribs... I added 48 unheated coals inside the bin, added 4 ounces of applewood, then added 12 hot coals (Kingsford coals). Put the water container in there, and added apple cider vinigar to the water container. I did not have to add any more coals for 4 hours. Just had to tend to the water every hour, and poke the coals and wood around with the poker every now and then. I did add a little more wood chunks after two hours. Note: Use wood chunks, not chips, and don't soak them. Soaking them creates soot! You don't want that. And, you must keep the tempreature down below 250. That's why I use an old candy themometer through the vent hole (1-3/4" inches into the hole). It's a science you know.

Now, this is for a 22-1/2 inch Weber, don't know about the smaller ones. Look on Amazon.com and google Smokenator.

When I made the pork butt, I only used 40 dry coals and added wood chunks and 12 hot coals. Had to add 8 coals after about three hours and a little more wood chunks. Always addiing fluid to the water bin.

This setup is KILLER!

Also, google Smokenator 1000 on Youtube.com

The Smokey Joe may be too small for a smokenator. You need to get a bigger one Hook!!

Looks like you can get one for the 18" Weber though.

I've heard of fishermen in the old days using a large cardboard box lined with foil for lower temp smoking....could fold it flat for travelling.
