smoking Pippy's 2nd UDS smoke!!!!!!

Well the food is in the UDS as I type this and has been for about 3 hours.....

I'm pretty disappointed as I can't control the temps as well as I'd hoped and the UDs is sitting perfectly at 150C (300F) which is far higher than what I want....I'm pretty sure the lid and maybe the base of the UDS isn't sealing properly so that is something I will try and address before the next smoke and i'm really not sure how this smoke will turn out, hopfully the food is ok but I'm in un known waters???

I have a 3.5kg rolled pork shoulder, 2kg corned beef, and a 2kg fatties rubbed with herbs and spices then coated in red wine and garlic sauce then rolled up......

The chicken didn't fit so I might try and cook it later once the fattie is done??
 
The fattie was done in about 4 hours....It wasn't as smokey as I was hoping but it was still bloody nice....

The temp is cooling down now and is at around 110C (220ish F) and it's dropping very slowly. I have just put the chicken in and I'm going to put some more hickory wood and coals in the basket in an hour or so....

Now all you need it a nice cold one to go with that.


Oh...wait, I forgot....I'm sure you have already been drinking :drunk:


:rofl:

Corned beef, pork and chicken are still in the UDS and I just added some more coals cause the chicken still has a while to go....Going to take the corned meat out in half hour or so. That will have given it around 8 hours......Pork still needs a while yet I would think.

Oh yeah....The first beer was cracked an hour ago...:D
 
If you smoked it it's pastrami now.
 
Can i add a not win mark boss? Not that i really care as i like pastrami better than corned beef anyway!
 
Patrami on rye with mustard......... and pickled habs.
 
Now comes the rolled pork shoulder after about 10 hours in the UDS.....

OMG it is so nice and is just falling apart...:)

It looks a little dark on the outside, that's because the temps were a little higher than I hoped for...

The chicken is still in the UDS and will be coming out in and hour or so.....
 
Looks good! You can usually get rid of some of the blackness by saucing it up real good near the end. It softens it up and soaks it in.

The pork is just falling apart...I can't get enough of it.....:drooling:
 
Damn Pippy!!! That looks great...looks nice and juicy and tender, well the inside. :lol: But, you are making me hungry.


Survey says= WIN!
 
Glad you're enjoying the UDS. I don't have one, but I can smoke well on my horizontal smoker. We'll have a battle soon.
