I've got a 10 lb. pork butt on my bullet smoker and 14 lbs. of Andouille sausage I cased up yesterday in my homemade box smoker.

I got things started around 7:30 and once up to temperature, on the grates things went. I'm starting the Andouille with a heavy, low temperature smoke for a few hours and then kicking it up to finish it off.

It's just shy of 9 a.m. and I'm already wanting a cold beer----it's hot and humid as hell out there today.

I threw a 7lb butt on the egg around 730. Hoping it’ll be ready by the pels game.

Crack it open, baw. It’s not a proper smoke without it.

I agree, and I'll drink to that. Besides, keeping tabs on both smokers is sweat inducing today, so I need to stay hydrated.

Everything right with smoking today, got 10 lbs of leg quarters, 8 lb butt and chopping seasoning for a dirty rice. Eliminate the Pels and it will be a great day

Tough crowd. Had to get the coffee in me first. Get that early morning porcelain deposit and paperwork out the way then start working on checking bladder function.
