Whole Smoked Pork Shoulder Lots of times people say they are smoking a shoulder, but really they are only cooking the butt portion of the whole shoulder. A whole Smoked Pork Shoulder weights around 20lbs and takes about 18 hours to cook. It’s a big task… but it can produce some serious barbecue. I am cooking this whole Smoked Pork …
Grilled Pork Tenderloin I’ve done several recipes for pork loin… but this recipe is for a true pork tenderloin. The true tenderloin runs alongside the backbone – and it’s a lot smaller (and a lot more tender) than the pork loin. It’s often called the pork fillet too… that’s how good it is! There are a lot of different ways …
My Napoleon gas grill is pretty new to me… and I’ve been dying to try out the rotisserie. So when I found some pork loins on sale at my local grocery – it was on. For starters I took the pork loin and removed any heavy silver skin off the top. Then I used butcher twine to tie it up …

This week I have a rib recipe that you absolutely must try. It’s my take on Korean BBQ Spare Ribs and it’s all about Flavor! These ribs are way different than your traditional BBQ ribs. In place of a dry rub I use a marinade to season the meat, and at the very end I hit them with a Spicy-Sweet …

I love Pork Carnitas… so I decided to do my version using pulled pork. The traditional way of cooking carnitas is to braise pork shoulder in lard or oil until it’s falling apart, then crisp the chunks of pork and make tacos. My version is a little different because I want to incorporate the smoker into the cooking process to …

Pineapple Glazed Whole Smoked Ham For this recipe I use a Whole Smoked Ham (fully cooked). Don’t confuse it with a fresh or green ham which is one that hasn’t been cured or cooked, also don’t confuse it with a country ham. That’s something totally different. (we fry it and eat with biscuits in the south!). The whole ham is …

Well, this week I tried something that was brand new to me called Pig Wings, and they’re so good that I had to include them in a newsletter. The pig wing is actually a portion of the ham shank that has been trimmed and smoked (fully cooked). …
For this week’s newsletter I had my local butcher cut me some 1” thick pork loin chops. Thick chops like these are excellent on the smoker and it doesn’t take as long as you might think. I keep the recipe fairly simple but we get a ton of flavor into the meat by using a brine. Also the layered seasonings …

It’s pretty much ready right out of the cryovac just give it a quick rinse and pat with paper towel. I don’t bother trimming any excess fat off …
