The raw materials were a tank of some form, he bought it from a company in Georgia...I can't remember the name.

Here are my Boston butts from Saturday. Dry rub and smoked with cherry wood for 6 hours @ 200 degrees. Double foiled and cooked for an additional 4 hours.

based on the comments, I'd say yes.

Something is messed up. All I see is what you type, and then just blackness.

I found out I can buy a few models from this company locally. Looks pretty good, heavy steel, all powder coated, cast iron grates, side fire box with dampers in and out. MUCH better fit and finish than the Brinkmann I saw, for not much more money. Any experience with these out there?
http://www.chargriller.com/ The model I can get is similar to this one, but has a basket on the front instead of a shelf...

Why are Boston butts called butts when they are really a shoulder?

Yoop-
If you want a decent smoker, a good test is to lift the lid. If it is light, then stay away. If it feels heavy and sturdy, then odds are, its good. I just did a whole brisket and beer can chicken this weekend. Well sorry to say, I had to finish them in the oven. I ran out of wood. Apparently the only wood that is sold in northern colorado was the evergreen type. But everything still turned out good, the brisket was a little dry though. __________________ 1990 FJ62 aka -HogMauler- (OME Med-SR-ARB Bull Bar-SROR Sliders) TLCA# 11319 1995 Saab 9k Aero (Custom intake and exhaust) ----- HOPKINS BAY RESORT ----- ---Ask Me About Getting An iPhone or a Wii--- |

BTW did anyone see Alton Brown's smoker on Good Eats??? It was the episode where he smoked a bostom butt. It was mimicking the ceremic green egg smoker. He built it using terracotta pots, a hot plate, and a grill grate. It cost him $47 he said. Now that I live in an apartment, I may try to make that smoker.

Ahh, it's in relation to the whole shoulder, not in relation to the animal. Makes more sense now.  This thread is truly Ultimate. thanks guys! __________________ If you're not part of the solution, you're part of the precipitate. '99 UZJ100 "The Iron Hippo" / '82 FJ40 "Mustard" / '73 FJ40 Quote:

Yeah this one feels good. When I opened the door to the Brinkmann I posted earlier, it almost fell off, once I jiggled the handle enough to get it to open at all... I think I'm gonna get the CharGriller... __________________ If you're not part of the solution, you're part of the precipitate. '99 UZJ100 "The Iron Hippo" / '82 FJ40 "Mustard" / '73 FJ40 Quote:

Never done roast but was smokin some ribs today and was gonna fire it up anyway so figured why not try it. Its not mine its my BIL's who wouldn't know how to cook it anyway. __________________ "If it wasn't a Landcruiser and hadn't been built the way it was you do realize you would be DEAD."

I ended up buying the CharGriller with the side fire box and I'm VERY happy with it. I found a couple online communities that like this smoker and found out some mods that improve it quite a bit. So far I've done chicken (marinated chicken breasts BBQ'd at 225°F up to an internal temp of 155°F are heaven), pork, and a beef roast. Mrs. yooper keeps buying expensive cuts of meat rather than the traditional BBQ cuts, so they've been a little too lean I think, especially the beef. I finally convinced her to order a Boston Butt and I'll be doing that this weekend. Haven't tried ribs yet.
The CharGriller is actually a better grill than my Weber kettle for regular grilling because of the adjustable fire grate and the cast iron food grate, so I haven't used my Weber since I got the CharGriller.
