It all started in 1990 when my other travel smoker got run over by a idiot one night at deer camp and I had to replace it with another just like it for $125.00 (wish I had bought a dozen of them and just stored them as they no longer make this one). It's smoked thousands of pounds of pork and traveled as many miles from the Keys to Carolinas..from the shores of the Atlantic to the Rio bringing joy to taste buds along the way. After all those years and miles I decided that yesterday would it's last as it was on it's last leg.. literally.. 2 of the 3 legs fell off as I took it out of it's travel bag.
I went with my old and trusted pork butt recipe.. soaked over night in cola, vinegar, lemon juice, and just a touch of Dales. Rubbed down in yellow mustard, then "sprinkled" with a spice blend of my own and topped with pineapple slices.
3 rounds of hickory chips.
Then ready to wrap and finish.
A few hours later and it's fall off the bone tender.
A pan full of history and goodness That the folks that made it to the mountain gathering at Suches a few years back will remember (@Crakajak, @dwhee87, @JustUs4All, @tr21, @Uncle Eddie, plus a few others).
The 1st of the last.
Gonna miss my old friend and travel companion.
