fat cap up vs fat cap down

[Hines57]

Fuckit man, Ive got PLENTY of room at my shop, we need to have a DFWM BBQ pitmaster cookoff.

Best part is, we don't have neighbors to piss off at 3am.

I don't mind a short drive as long as I can find a day off with everyones schedule. I got a plethora of loin strip primals I wouldn't mind smoking and getting some new ideas...


Damn Baron your a little ways from me turbo rail is a hell of alot closer

[Baron Von Crowder]

My shop's even farther. But hell, with room (3 acres) to spread out and get everyone's smokers together, not to mention coolers and cars, what's a bit farther drive?

We could get a few volunteers together to come down and blind judge. It would mostly be a hang out and shoot the shit while sharing ideas on bbq, but why not?

Hell Ill buy you a beer, whataya say?

[Hines57]

Ya I wouldn't mind I do work alot though. Ill have to find an ice chest big enough to cram all my shit in and have to make the drive in a f350 so how much further are we talking .

[Slowhand]

I've got two fatcaps pointing upward right now as we speak. So that should tell you how I do it.

Still can't tell. Which is it?

a ways, google 32.443409,-97.109888

staight down 35e to 67 and then south for a while. This is all assuming we can get Brent, Matt, Chris and some of the others who like to throw down and smoke to all drag their shit down too. Maybe a Saturday night into Sunday deal.

[Hines57]

But back to the original topic let me know how you decide to do it and how it turns out

Just pm me some information and I'll see what works for me. If its not but maybe 5-6 people smoking I wouldn't mind giving everyone a loin strip primal and some other primals just to see the difference and maybe learn something new . But I'll need to know beforehand what anyone would want . I'm almost tempted to smoke a whole to ribeye primal to see what happens

Yeah, I was looking at the one I got thinking about what it would be like to toss it on the rack.

Ill start a thread and see if we have any interest.

Now I want to throw something in the smoker and dont have time.... BradM when your ready ill let you smoke it for me your local. Ill give you two for yourself and one to smoke for me.

[BradM]

Sweet!

I Smoke fat side up, then when I wrap it and put it in the cooler, I put the fat side down so that only the fat sits in fat and liquid, as I don't like my brisket overly wet, but I do like it juicy.

[oh1bullitt]

I started fat side down and flipped it at about 100 degrees. Left it fat side up until 165. Then wrapped it until 180 and threw it in a cooler with towels for an hour and a half. Came out super tender but a little on the dry side. Not overly dry but just a little less juice than I would have liked. If there is a dfwm smoke party I am down to tow my rig from Abilene to partake if it is on my days off as long as you don't mind me sleeping in my truck till first light. Never been able to have something on the smoker without a shiner in my hand. Not a fan of drinkin then driving that far back.
