Only about six more hours to go. Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!

OK, so it's a pork leg or "picnic" and not a butt per say. But would you have looked otherwise? LOL1010633.JPG

Looks like a nice start to me... I'm starved! 🙂

I was going to post a similar picture of one my girlfriend recently made. The meat was falling off the bone on that one! Deee-lish!

Cheers,

Thanks, I had tried to post a series of pics but for some reason it wasn't accepting the later posts.

Here's the thread, titled "Home Alone" on the misc board.

http://www.cigarbid.com/auction/forum/forum.cfm?action=list&forumID=9&messageDisplay=0000000087684 

Here are all the pics.

10 hrs at about 165 degrees (same pic as here).

13 hrs at about 170 degrees.

Almost 16 hrs and it's only at 181 degrees. Damn I'm hungry!

Finally the 10.37lb untrimmed picnic at 19 hrs, current temp is 198 and done. Crap, I ain't even hungry now...LOL

Charlie ...

How 'bout I meet you at that place in Irvine where you and I last got together? ... it's probably no more than 20 minutes from there to JJs, so 3:30 or even 4 ought to be good enough to beat rush hour traffic ... let's see if this roast is ready yet ...

the roast looks pretty damn good, Jimbo ... if it really WERE convenient for me to swing by your place, I'd sure do it for chow that looks that good ... and I'd bring cigars and a little liquid surprise for the host too ...

Glad to see you finally pulled the smoker out of the back of your truck and put it to use. I almost did not open this one JJ, LOL. But actually,your butt looks good !

Dan, that smoker in the back of my truck was my old brinkman. Probably 15 year old as a matter of fact and yes I have since taken it out from back there....LOL

The one I'm using here is a Weber Smokey Mountain cooker or WSM that I bought a couple years ago or so. Big difference, like night and day different. Oh, you can smoke on a brinkman and I have for years. It's just that this thing is almost set and forget in comparison. You get about 12 - 16 hours out of just one load of charcoal and it'll go all night long with minimal temperature fluctuation.

Hey if anybody here that's local to So Cal and is looking for a Weber 22 1/2" Gold Series Charcoal BBQ Kettle. My local home depot has them marked at $91 down from about $140 anywhere else. I bought one just before Christmas and it's a great BBQ with just a bit more room than the WSM.

The other HD in the area are still $140 on this grill but for some reason this one store is $91 and has been since before Christmas like I said. I'm even tempted to grab a second one...LOL
