"I like big butts and I cannot lie..."

Some bbq guy should do a spoof on that.

"Pool is open"..... you suck!

You do suck. Am I too late for dinner?

I could swing by and pick you up on the way to his house! If we get enough guys together I could take my truck. It'll hold 5 comfortably, six if we have to. We'll need that many to afford the gas bill though.

Shotgun! Keep the pool open!

After the overnight loss, it is down to 81F...The cover works very well.

Low and slow. I like to put about 4-5 hours of smoke on those butts at 225 F. Then, wrap and finish in the oven until it hits an internal temp of 203 F.

I haven't tried cherry wood. I start it off with oak and then mesquite for the last hour or two. Although my son in law in OKC says, "never, and i mean everrrrrr" use mesquite on pork.

I was using mesquite until I tried cherry on chicken breasts. I do use mesquite for the main charcoal, but for the smoking wood, I love cherry.

Applewood is my go to for chicken. I might have to give cherry a try.

I tried applewood but Mrs. Beard did not like it as much as cherry wood.

Does the cherry smoke have a lighter flavor than apple? I've used apple on pork butt, salmon and chicken and everyone loved it. I've done cherry smoked malt in my Scottish Ale but that's about it.
