Smoke This
The Perfect Brisket
Trim excess fat from meat side of brisket
Season brisket with brisket rub and let rest for 1-2 hours
Light smoker and set temperature to 225 F
Place brisket on smoker fat side down
Cook until internal temperature reaches 160-165. Wrap with foil.
Add 1/3-1/2 cup beef broth or Kosmos Brisket Mop to foil when wrapping
Continue to cook until internal temperature reaches 200-205. Use a sharp thermometer to poke the flat. When the brisket is done there should very little resistance when you poke it into the flat.
Remove from smoker and let rest for at least 30 minutes preferably 1-2 hrs.
Slice 1/8" - 1/4" thick slices against the grain.
Eat!
The Best Pulled Pork
Season 2-4 hours before you smoke (I do mine over night).
Light the smoker and smoke at 225-250
Place on smoker fat cap DOWN.
Once internal temp of the pork is between 150-160 place in pan and add 1/3-1/2 cup of either Scott's BBQ Sauce, Dr Pepper, apple juice, or another vinegar based bbq sauce.
Wrap the top of the pan and continue cooking until internal temp is about 200 (198-202).
Remove from smoker and let rest in an empty cooler for at least 30 mins.
Pull apart and reseason. Add 1/2 of the juice collected in the pan while smoking. Toss like a salad.
Serve and enjoy.
The Ultimate Prime Rib
Trim your Prime Rib and remove any unwanted fat.
Use twine to hold your Prime Rib tight and season using your favorite beef/steak rub.
Place your Prime Rib on the smoker at 250° F and smoke until your internal temperature reaches 120° F.
Bump up your smoker to 500° F and let your Prime Rib cook until it reaches 130° F internal temperature.
Let your Prime Rib rest for 20-30 minutes and enjoy!
The Juiciest Spatchcock Turkey
Make sure your turkey is thaw out. Plan about one day per 4/LB thawing time inside your fridge.
Start by brining your turkey in a favorite brine. About one hour per pound in the brine & fridge. (We used Kosmo’s Turkey Brine)
Remove your turkey from the brine, pat dry the turkey.
Using a set of poultry shears, cut close to the spine of your turkey on both sides removing the spine completely.
Score along the center of your turkey’s breast bone using a sharp knife.
Turn your turkey over and push along the center of the breast, as if giving your turkey CPR.
Season thoroughly with your favorite turkey rub. We used a combination of Chicken Star & All Star.
Place on your smoker at 325° F and smoke until the Turkey Breast hit an internal Temperature of 160° F.
Remove from smoker and let rest 15-20 Minutes.
Enjoy!
Simple, Easy, & Delicious Ribs (The 90/90 Method)
Season with pork seasoning 1 hour before smoking
Set smoker to 275 degrees
Place ribs bone side down for 90 mins
Wrap in tinfoil and add butter, honey, and brown sugar to meat side
Place back on smoker wrapped bone side UP for an additional 90 mins.
Let rest 15 -30 mins in a cooler.
Slice between bones and enjoy.
