Brisket, pork belly, turkey on the Blue Smoke

[TheHojo]

Up early for an all day cook - got all the meat trimmed and rubbed last evening



Did a spring linseed oil treatment - then had the fire going around 4:30 this morning - briskets, pork belly and tallow on at 5:30 - going to vacuum seal all of this for parents and an injured friend -



Will throw on a turkey breast, stuffing, a meat loaf and some sausages later today once the pork belly is finished and the briskets are wrapped

More photos to follow

A venison meatloaf has joined the party - and the pork belly is in the foil boat

Nice. How's that pit smell?

That looks awesome!

Do you vac seal the brisket whole, or slice first? I'd venture a guess that whole would be the answer.

Looks wonderful!
They'll enjoy it all. :clap2:

Whole - actually heading out your direction - my mom lives up in Cave Creek

Both dogs are protecting the pit!

Briskets pulled around 180 - going to wrap in foil and back to smoker until probe tender - will then wrap in BP and rest them - vacuum seal tomorrow

Even got some beef tallow

I just cooked a venison meatloaf a couple days ago. What’d you mix it with? I used HEB original and it turned out pretty good.

Everything looks good!

Processor put this one together - I think it was a 60/40 venison to pork mix

Looks like you had a Good Day. You are a Good Person

Vacuum sealed it all up this morning - 3 briskets, a pork belly, a meatloaf, some turkey breast and sausages



Used my latest version of my scoop baffle yesterday - added the holes to increase the air flow

Did a great job keeping the pit temps consistent and even from end to end
