Large grocery chain has Pork Shoulder Blade Boston Roast on sale for $0.99 per pound. Was thinking about buying a couple and putting them in the freezer to try the Renowned Mr. Brown at a later date. I noticed on the label that it said "up to 10% solution added". I didn't make the purchase.
1. Should I be bothered by the fact that it has solution added? I'd rather buy butt that doesn't have any solution added. What are your thoughts? Should I make the purchase anyway...or look elsewhere for a butt with no solution added?
2. I went looking for a thermometer to use in the hood. Couldn't find a candy thermometer except for the glass kind. I did find two thermometers to be used with a turkey fryer. One had a 4" stem/probe and the other had a 12" stem/probe. They both had a clip attached that could be used to attache to WSM lid vent. They both had an analog temp guage that went up to 500 degrees. Would the 4" one work for measuring the temp at the hood as some do using a candy thermometer with clip?
Thanks in advance for any and all feedback.
