Kroger pork butt BOGO this week, or Publix $1.99/lb.
Makes me wish I had the time to fire this up. Brand? It's a JimCo. Holds up to 8 butts in one filling.
I also own the other model JimCo. makes.
The JimCo. Upright Barrel Smoker is more efficient than the JimCo. Double Barrel Smoker, but they are both fun. Man, when my buddy was still alive we'd do 150-200 pounds at a time. I built a UBS for him, too.
Here's what I really miss, though... smoked goat. I used to have a herd of 60 and man, that meat tastes awesome smoked.
Anyway, too busy this weekend again. It might be Memorial Day weekend before I get a clear shot. Sigh...
Next time you guys have the smoker fired up, once you have your main cook done, have a couple of Fatties in the refrigerator you can put on to finish up. A Fatty is just a package of Jimmy Dean sausage with rub sprinkled on it. You can split it and put a hunk of your favorite cheese in it if you want. Keep it in the fridge until you are ready to put it on so it holds its shape. I always like to take them off, cool them, bag them up, and slice them later for sandwiches. Boy, that is good with some mayo on the bread. Try it.
The one on the left is plain, the other is cheese stuffed. I suppose Mike would have to sneak a pepper in there, too.
See how much he used to appreciate my cooking?
