Came home from work today, shoveled the snow off the deck, plugged in the CS55 and added 2lb pork loin roast that has been brining for 36 hrs or so, 1/2oz apple and 1/2oz hickory, just waiting for it to hit 140. Its just so great being able to smoke something whenever I want, no matter what weather - the snow has stopped but it's 19 deg and dropping. Who cares?!
In case ya can't tell, I'm still on my Igotanewtoy high. Gotta love that Cookshack!!!

2-1/2 hrs later, at 140 deg I pulled it and let it rest under foil 30 minutes. A bit salty, 24 hrs might have been better in the brine, BUT - very moist! Just part of the learning process, looking forward to many more experiments/lessons/mistakes/successes etc etc.
Wish I had discovered Cookshack many years ago, so much wasted time.......... Roll Eyes
I rinsed it off before cooking, the solution may have been too salty or it stayed in too long, I suspect the latter. It was a smallish piece, about 2 lbs. I cooked it at 250, the highest setting on the CS55. It was still good eats, with a little Bone Suckin' Sauce on the side. I love that as a dipping sauce.
Oh by the way - the ABT's that shared the smoker with the pork loin were awesome. Big Grin Big Grin
