Cool idea...rich people party soft...carried my sister out of the halloween party....again...carried my wife out of the rebalution concert....before it started...its an irish Tradition

 

[Weldabeast]

Yeah ....old boy ain't too hard off for sure....

But that open fire dome looks awesome and so did the finished product. Poor boys can party like that too

 

[tailgunner]

I hope...looked dope...now i need to harvest

Looks kinda like South American barbecue... churrascaria?

I'll have to give it a try. I Cooked bergers on my fire pit tonight, does that count?

 

[Wirrex]

Seems easy enough. I’m going to try it today with a whole fawn hind quarter and report back.

I wonder if poplar would be a bad idea? Kinda hate to use the oak I heat the house with.

 

[Weldabeast]

Doesn't poplar burn fast and not produce good coals? I have no idea....we don't have those kinda trees.

Yeah some reading indicates it’s not great. Going to use maple and oak I guess.

Let us know how it turns out.

60-80 pound pigs look like a good candidate for this type of cooking also

The way they did the ribs and back strap all as 1 big chunk looked so good....when she dug that strap out it looked amazing

I generally don't cook with popple but there's enough if it around here. Might do an experiment with hot dogs or other meat you don't mind gambling with. If it turns out well I'll be set!

I expected it to be about the consistency of a bias ply tire but it was VERY tender! It was a fawn after all. 5hrs cook time. I would do it again for sure!

I used regular salted butter. It was all I had on hand. Next time I will try to avoid the smoke a little more. It got a little too much probably from each time I reloaded the fire.

I’m betting that poplar will add a funky flavor.

That buck cutout on the fire pit is gorgeous!

I smoked a rear quarter a few years ago, brined it and then wrapped it in bacon. Turned out very well.
