Chuck roast burnt ends.

Chuck roast rubbed with Hardcore Carnivore Black and Salt Lick rub. Smoked at 220 for three hours. Bumped to 270 till internal temp hit 165. Wrapped in foil till it hit 195. Pulled off smoker and rested for 10 mins. Cut in 3/4 inch bits and added a little bit of brown sugar and Rendezvous BBQ sauce. Put back on smoker for 1 1/2 hours (till it was bubbling and the meat was tender). Served hot!

Steaks took about 3-3.5 hours, next time will sear first to see if it cooks faster. Used Pappy’s rub – I loved them.

For the lobster tails – cracked tails, pulled meat up, and brushed on butter mixture. Lobster took 15 mins. Perfect!

Rubbed with yellow mustard and used Famous Dave’s rib rub. Placed on smoker at 210/220 degrees till it hit a temp of 165. Turned smoker up to 300 degrees and place meat in a pan with apple juice, orange juice, and a little bbq sauce. Covered and cooked till it hit an internal temp of 195. Pull out of the pan and brushed on a little bbq sauce (used Maull’s) and put back on smoker for 10 mins. Overall cook time was 4.5 hours.

5 pound rib roast, coated with Salt and Pepper. Placed in Big Easy oil-less turkey fryer till internal temperature reaches 133° (For medium rare)

Purchased these chicken legs from a local meat shop and asked them to French cut the legs for me. Did 1/2 skin on & 1/2 skin off. In the end both turned out great!

Wrapped bones in aluminum foil to keep the bones from burning. Used Killer Hog bbq rub & coated the meat. Set smoker for 300° placed the chicken legs in for around 2 hours (pull temp = 165° – 170°)

When you hit the pull temp dip in warmed up BBQ sauce.

Put back in smoker (I finished in oven at 300°) for around 30 mins or until it hits 175°.
