Hey everybody,

I' am very excited to start my second smoke on my new 22.5 WSM. I am going to do a pork butt injected with apple juice, sugar and salt. Then rubbed with a rub that I make at home (dark brown sugar, turbanado sugar, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, sea salt, chili powder, oregano, cayenne, jalapeno powder, cumin and black pepper). Then I am going to smoke it with apple chunks at around 235 degrees all night long. Tomorrow I think I'll go into a pork coma it will be so good.
 
Brian, I'll be out with you tonight doing the same thing. I hope both our cooks go well. Good luck and can't wait to see the results.
 
Keep us posted, glad for you. Just remember You ain't cookin when you're lookin!

Good luck fellas! I plan on beginning a smoke about this time next weekend. How about some pics of the outcome if you got em'.
 
Brian, I hope your temp control is going well. I know my WSM is running hot tonight. Have only one bottom vent open a sliver and the other 2 closed and holding in the high 250s low 260s. I don't think my WSM could keep a 235 like you're shooting for. At least not without more seasoning.

Mine did go a little over the 235 that I was shooting for but I was still under 250. I had great success, how about you? I will be posting some pics as soon as I get them uploaded.
