Having read various posts on this excellent forum, I have decided to go with Aussie Beads for my first long smoke in my WSM 37.

Re: HELP!: My First Boston Butt...

Hi Guys,

I'm really pleased this conversation has taken off especially since I have started to make a list of things I want to clarify before stuffing things up.

Re: HELP!: My First Boston Butt...

Hi essexsmoker,

Thanks - I think it's just a matter of persisting - they can soon chop the right part out once they know what you're after.. the younger guy was right on the money... he also picked up another piece which he called the 'hand of pork'... this is a whole new world to me :)

Re: HELP!: My First Boston Butt...

Thanks ...

I get the impression some people throughout the UK find it difficult to source certain cuts of meat like a Boston Butt.

Although new to this forum, I have already read a few posts from UK people saying their butchers have never heard of this cut of meat and it also appears that some ...

HELP!: My First Boston Butt...

Hi Guys,

Earlier today, I found a very knowledgeable local butcher who has supplied me with a Boston Butt which I intend to smoke on my new WSM as soon as the weather picks up - currently chucking it down here in the West Midlands, UK.

I'm here to get as much advice as possible hoping to ensure ...

Re: Hello

I have a cunning plan for when my 15yrs old cedar wood greenhouse finally dies.. I'm considering a wooden Pagoda big enough for the BBQ and some seating... it can Pi55 down all day then and I won't give a To55!

Hi Shawn,

I've only recently joined this forum but a warm welcome!
