in my opinion boneless are fine they taste about the same with less work though if you smoak them correctly you can generally take the bone out with little to no effort
This morning I will tryout my new MB electric smoker for the first time. I've watched your video over and over. I bought an 8 pound pork butt yesterday and it's been in the fridge over night . Wish me luck.
Oh, by the way, the video was excellent .
Heat is heat. Oven or whatever else. When you're smoking, think of it as a 2 part cook. 1 is getting smoke and bark up to the point you wrap or do whatever. 2 is just bringing it home to probe tender. Lame but accurate example for most geeks: You smoke a brisket or whatever to 165. It's fine at that point usually with smoke and bark. Finish the rest of the cook in the oven. The "hard" part was accomplished in step one. For this an oven is perfectly fine if you're a functioning adult in 2025.
Good tip about the absolutely unnecessary binders. Just adding more steps to the process when you do that amateur shit.
So is there a certain internal temp that makes you pull it out and wrap it or is it more the feel of the fat ?
Omg. Thank you for this. I just finished eating I did a 9lbs pulled pork. All I can say is everyone said this was the best BBQ pulled pork they have had. I thought it was awesome too and I was sin Texas most my life. So tender and juicy. The bone just popped out when I held it in my hands! Next I’ll be trying the prime rib roast. I see your pellet grill one but if you ever do opening he smoker In hope to se it. I’ve done the ribs of yours also and they were great. Maybe in the description attach your timeline and when do do what! I made on after watching your video a few times and it’s spot on. I’m going to do it again in the zJuly for picnic.
Thanks for this! Maybe the internet is spying on me, but you're using the same brand smoker and brand pork butt as I have on hand (or just corporate America has limited our choices…) Either way, I've had very little luck with my smoker and am giving it one more go, so thanks for the helpful tips!
You are one of the reasons I started my own channel! Love your videos!
I have one. I’m doing a Boston butt this weekend and your video. I came across by accident very informational and helpful and with a lot of tips about buying a Boston butt trimming it and cooking it and other small suggestions that you have in the video that I was not aware ofgreat thank you for the video
Wiseman said "it's normal for a butt to have a crack" so don't worry people 😂😂😂😂
Can I smoke 2 pork shoulders at the same time in the same masterbuilt electric smoker?
Did you flip it over in the foil pan when you wrapped it, or was the fat side still up?
Great video 👍🏾
Great instructional video for us beginners. Thank you
This is exactly the video I was looking for. Everyone's got a wood smoker but I also have an electric. Thanks for the great information mine's still in the first 4 hoursThis is exactly the video I was looking for. Everyone's got a wood smoker but I also have an electric. Thanks for the great information mine's still in the first 4 hours of cooking. I'll let you know how it went
Not a fan of any fat in my pulled pork cooking. Low and slow keeps the dryout at bay. Aluminum foil first helps too.
You’re talking about your smoking temperature and time might not be necessary but let me tell you something pulled pork was founded and developed way down south. You’re talking too fast to be down south I’ve done a lot of smoking in my years. I’m 69 years old hell of a lot more than you’ve done. I smoke all of my meat 225 230° that’s it no more and a few other secrets that you’re too dumb for me to tell to have a good day.
Smoking my first pork shoulder. Using your tips. Thanks for the video.
Do you remove the thick skin on the pork shoulder and trim the softer fat ?
Do you take out the drip pan that comes with it if you're using the foil pan? I just smoked chicken legs but had issues getting the temp above 235° while the temp was set to 275°. Was curious if having both pans inside caused less heat circulation.
Doing this tomorrow! My first time with an electric smoker!
First time I watched this channel. Great job, great explanations.
If you cook for 12 hours but only smoke for 3 hours. D9 you keep the vent 90en the entire 12 hours?
"It's normal for a butt to have a crack." Nice!
Ok. I'm gonna try it this weekend. Wish me luck! I've never used a smoker before. I bought a nice one at an auction recently. We'll see what happens!😅😅 Thank you!
