First Ever Full Packer

[Rich Dahl]

Smoke day was a success for us, first time smoking a full packer.
We used Chris A. high heat method which worked fantastic.

The 18.5 was sure stuffed with a 12 pound brisket in it. I ran a stead 365 for the whole cook.
For lunch Barb made some sailboat deviled eggs and poppers. She also made here Mac & Cole slaw salad as a side. I made my version of Cliff’s root beer beans as a side.
The brisket came out very good considering that it was in the freezer for three days shy of a year. Very tender and tasty. Smoke was pecan and apple with dizzy pig raging river rub.
Hope everyone had a great Smoke Day, we sure did.

That's funny Bob, actually I've been using that term for about 30 years. When Barb used to go to her office at about 5am I used to make her an egg with bacon on an English muffin and wrap it up in foil to take to work which she ate a little later in the morning. One of her co workers thought it was a from Mickey Ds and Barb told her I made and it was an egg McRich, the rest is history.
I tell my attorney to expect some correspondence

Well then there now, my apologies Mr McRich

I remember when Mc D's first came out with the egg McMufffin they advertised it as breakfast was coming to McDonalds.
My survey crew and I stood in line for one that first day, a guy in front of us, not knowing that the McMuffin was all they offered, told the clerk he wanted 2 eggs over easy, toast, and a side of bacon.
