Sorry… which burner is considered the primary burner? Under the wood chips?
Absolutely perfect recipe for gas grill smoking. Worked like a charm. I actually used an off the shelf sweet apple wood rub from the grocery store. cutting the butt also added more "edges" which tasted so good. ATK usually does things right. Great adaptation!
I Use this method with my Weber Spirit 310 Grill and it works well. The Spirit 310 is the Weber Grill America's Test Kitchen actually recommended in an episode a 4-5 years ago for best gas grill for around $500. which is why I purchased it in 2018. That same grill is now $699 due to recent inflation. Still it's solid 3 burner that gets you into Weber quality at a lower price than the Genesis line once preheated you only need one burner on the far side from the food and it can be tricky to regulate 300 degrees at first so I recommend staying with the grill until you achieve that. The recipe turns out good. the rub is basic and good however I prefer to make my own Carolina style sauce over the sauce they use. I would recommend using your favorite sauce too if you want to change it up. for the wood you can use almost any smoking wood chips you like, they recommend Hickory but I have used Apple because it had it on hand. Cherry or Pecan would also be nice or you could blend woods. Mesquite is a little too strong to use by it's self on pork though.
I really like Lan, she is focused on doing her thing, no stupid chit chat, no lame jokes or fake laughs.
Trim off the fat? Heresy! If I wanted low fat, I'd cook a chicken breast ; )
nice…
My electric smoker died so I'm in panic mode! Gonna try this now.
You really didn't use much of the sauce???? Can i cut the recipe in half?
Julia’s reactions are the best!
It seems like the perfect place to work… I would be a big as a house after a few months…
Why is this lady removing all the fat? What's wrong with her?
Yum, my fav! I do mine in oven until now…
Lan was great. Love her direction and clear instruction
Looks SOOOO DELICIOUS 😋! Hi JULIA !!! 🤗
Lan, intelligent as always. I do wonder if a cut into the bottom of the foil packet would help. It may make the wood burn too fast. My gas grill has a tough time making wood chips smoke. Maybe it depends on the grill.
Never soak your wood chips. U wanna steam your meat or smoke it?
It looks delicious I'll make it

Funny seeing city folks trying to do bbq. Outside of the cities you will see this cooking style, well never.
Heresy! The Smokey Bbq gods will seek retribution! Expect your next meringue to collapse and your next cream sauce to break! The only way to escape the Smokey gods anger is to smoke a proper full packer brisket on a weber kettle every weekend for the next 8 weeks, as a show of contrition and respect. Failure to comply will result in a lifetime of mediocre and unimpressive bbq. You have my pity. =(
I love this channel! 🤗
