my partner is drooling (i have a beef allergy and am wondering if it would still be good with pork somehow) one big criticism: how can you post this and not include the youtube link to the sensation 😉 I suppose it is this one?

I guarantee you could do something very similar with pork and have it still be good. You might want to adjust the flavorings slightly since pork is a different taste and the cooking time would probably be a bit different. ---

Would definitely work with pork. I’d use a shoulder. Traditionally you use goat ---

That’s a significant improvement over last time I was in Lisbon (2007), when the only place I could get decent vegetarian food was a Hare Krishna canteen! ---

No machine kneading either and it’s working with or without cast iron pot. Excellent every day bread. ---

Some more YouTube inspired food last night, reverse seared ribs of beef, topped with cowboy butter when seared. ![IMG_20240615_184306](https://discussion.tekeli.li/uploads/default/original/3X/b/0/b0f23a30461ac833ef62e1bb8107d741cf82880f.jpeg) ![IMG_20240615_190910](https://discussion.tekeli.li/uploads/default/original/3X/d/1/d1a91b745a5ffe17240230f6127e87086de71e32.jpeg) ![IMG_20240615_192455](https://discussion.tekeli.li/uploads/default/original/3X/f/f/ffefdec136101ba185a361822925b839aae43acc.jpeg) ![IMG_20240615_193447](https://discussion.tekeli.li/uploads/default/original/3X/7/9/799fb85f24d335a9ed097ceaf86a0e139a5d4c88.jpeg) Really great way to cook beef through. ---

I smoke brisket and pork shoulder for about 8 hours I’d recommend taking the brisket off with 2-3 hours to go and wrapping it in foil. Add some liquid like beer, mustard and a bit of butter. It steams the brisket for the final 2 hours of smoking and makes the meat much moister ---

Do you have a meat thermometer? As far as I know, you really need one for smoking stuff for hours. You want to check the core temperature of your meat. Because some pieces take 8 hours some may take much longer depending on … stuff. I am not the grillmaster here but I am sure that‘s what my partner would say. ---

My partner is trying to guess what you have there on your BBQ. He assumes one of those is just roast pork? It really depends. If this is roast pork he says you want to reach 65° and 75° degree inside. The higher the quality of the meat the earlier you can decide it is done. 70°C ideally. Meat loaf if that is the other one is also 70°C. ---

Pork shoulder and a chunk of beef of some sort. Both nearing 65 at the moment. ---
