I've got a 10lb pork butt, bone in, that I'm going to put on for an overnight smoke. Kamado style cooker, lump charcoal and some applewood chunks. I usually put a rub on and wrap halfway through the cook with some liquid. Finish to around 200 internal and let rest in a cooler for a few hours before serving.

Looking for cook ideas or rub recipes that could be different and interesting.

Thanks in advance

Welcome to the secret world of smoking foods.
When it comes to infusing flavour or getting some "bark" on - there is no other way.
What I have learned is that recipes and smoking process can go back generations yet personal perception to perfection can take forever.
Key is to take notes… take notes and don’t forget to take notes.
Have fun and good eats.

Default Brisket cook

Been awhile since I posted on smoker thread. Did a 17lb brisket, wrapped in butcher paper at 165 degrees. Also injected with beef broth before putting rub on. Rub was equal parts salt and pepper. All night cook,took off smoker at 180 degrees, put in oven at 225 degrees to finish off. Final internal temp of meat in oven when it hit 205 degrees. Overall turned out great. Used almost a whole 7kg bag of Kingsford charcoal in weber smokey moutain cooker, very cool windy night.

Overnight brisket.

On at 8:30 pm and smoked on the top rack all night at 200. Around 8:30 am, I increased temp to 225 till the centre of the flat hit 170. Wrapped in pink unwaxed butcher paper and increased temp to 250 where it rode till it hit 200. Pulled and rested for 3 hours.

Seasoned liberally with killer hogs brisket rub and then layered it with killer hogs hot bbq rub.

Default Some rookie questions

So I've cold smoked a few things and finished them off on the bbq in the past and things have worked out great. I want to try pork bellies this time around. All I currently have is a couple of smoke tubes to burn pellets (apple wood in this case) and I use my bbq as a smoker. The cure process is what has me wondering in this case. I am unsure as to go with dry or wet and what to use. The internet and what I read on here suggests either will work.

So?

Dry or wet and why?
What cure would you suggest, buy it or make it myself and for how long?
Single or double smoke? (I really like the taste of applewood)?
Any other suggestions?
