First Time Pulled Pork

First Time Pulled Pork

Basically title. Had great success with it and wanted to share.

Completed on the Pitboss 850DX.

- 10lb bone in pork but with home made smokey rub.
- Applied rub and let rest wrapped over night in the fridge.
- Used Bear Mountain Oak Pellets (that’s what I have at the moment) and brought up to 235°F
- Placed butt on indirect with fat cap down and smoked until 160°F internal with pan under to catch fat drippings. Took about 6 hours.
- Wrapped and cranked the heat up to 250°F until probe tender…about 4-4.5 hours.
- Once probe tender and about 200°F internal, pulled off smoker let it rest for about 30 min.
- Ate the best pork I’ve ever made.

Guidance on Pork Butt Smoking

Hey all,

Had a question on smoking a pork butt. What is the best position to put your butt? Do you do fat down or fat up on a pellet grill? Working on a Pitboss 850dx. I know it probably different with pellet vs offset smokers. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Product Question

Hey all,

New to smoking here. Trying ribs tonight and super stoked! I saw this on the web and wanted to know what people thought of it…if they’ve used it, recommend, their experience etc.

Seems like a cool thing to be able to stack ribs in a sense for more cook space but I also feel like there could be an uneven cook.

Thanks!

Edit: Thanks for all the responses! I was not thinking I’d get this much feedback.

Asset Allocation View in App

Hi everyone,

I’m using the latest version of the app on iOS. Trying to look at my asset allocation of my personal brokerage account and I can’t view what the allocations actually are. I see the pie chart which is great but the legend is all cut off.

I’ve tried adjusting my font settings for my phone and no luck. I know I can go on the website - this was just something I came across while doing something else in the app.

Thanks!

Help with Burn Off

Hey all!

I’m currently doing my first burn off on my new 850DX. Been at 400 for about 45 min or so. I still notice crud (all the oil when it was wrapped in plastic in the box) on the heat deflector but it’s super burnt.

My question is, will all that burn off or is that just gonna be there and it’s really just the heavy stuff we care about in the burn off? Thanks!

Turkey Breast First Smoke Tips

Hey all! Super excited, just got my first smoker. Currently doing the burn off for the Pitboss 850DX and I want to start with (what I consider to be) a lower stakes smoke because of price.

I have two skin on Turkey breasts. Anyone have any good tips for me or a solid recipe they use? I’ve looked on google and what not and saved a couple but curious as to what others have done. Thanks!

How would you go about fixing this?

Bought a house a few months back. How would I go about updating this outlet outside?

Cannot figure it out!

We moved into a new property a few months ago. This was left in the back yard. I believe it’s all one thing and partially under the dirt. Any ideas as to what it could be?

Help With Mold on Linen Bags

Basically title. I have what appears to be mold spots in linen bags I’ve used to steep coffee grounds for cold brews. Admittedly I left the bag out for too long with the grounds inside and these spots grew after dumping the bag.

Any ideas on how to get the mold out? I currently have them soaking in a vinegar soap bath. If I’m screwed I’ll toss them however, if there is a natural way to get it off, I’ll take all the help I can get.

Thanks!

▲ 5 r/pools

New to pool owning. This is the current pump to our sand filter on the medium setting. Is this humming sound normal? My hearing is all jacked up so to me it sounds very high pitched and mechanical. Thanks for your help!

Pool noob here. (Be gentle). ~22k gallon pool. Still trying to determine if there is a leak (99% positive there is but where should the water level be? Half way up the tiles?

Additionally, the first skimmer shown in the video is capped off. Why would that be with the set up I have? It’s an old original pool from the 70’s and still trying to learn my way around things. Don’t mind the mess. Thanks for your help!
