Finished pork butt

Love seeing this from my frozen surroundings here.
I lived in and around Austin TX for 35yrs and learned to smoke a lot of different meats.
But when I moved here - the neighbors were alarmed when I did that all day long - so I bought a small electric smoker that works as well - on smaller meats - with a lot less smoke outside but the same smokey taste deep in the meat!

@OldMan70 an electric grill is best for cooking large thick cuts of beef and pork. Any thing other than that they aren’t much good for any thing else. They don’t generate enough heat for great steaks, burgers and ribs.

Great day in the south, nice and sunny here. Not smoking anything today but will be grilling a couple steaks this afternoon!

@Lumberjack70 take the smoker ice fishing with you.
We are supposed to be cold here but the lakes are still not safe.

@Repete good call!

I have a pork butt in the freezer. Waiting for turkey breasts to get cheaper so I can smoke both at once.

Okay, but how do you keep the end of the pork butt lit long enough to inhale?

@saragoodtimes it was below freezing here when I started but warming up nicely to the 50s F

How do u smoke a pork butt. Do u smoke in a pig butt or something

WDW4fun · 51-55

@smileylovesgaming in a grill, with charcoal and small pieces of wood. The cut of meat is a pork shoulder from a pig. The cut of meat is often referred to as a Boston Butt
