    I’ve had Bombers many times and like their St Louis ribs. Their chili is also amazing! I need to compare it to Doc’s. I’ve also been recommended Q bbq in Schererville.

    I have not attempted that. I'm not huge on liquid brining. Nothing against it, I just don't do it often.

    Yellow mustard, dry rub, and wrap in cling wrap overnight before smoking.

    I apologize in advance for posting potentially useful information.

    The bag arrived. For anyone interested in this type of bag, I'd say it's a little on the big side, compared to some of those coleman/igloo models, but seems very well built and has solid padding on back/straps.

    And for reference, here's how it looks with 5 bombers and 2 750's. Plenty of room for ice/frozen water bottles.

    No, but I have made short rib and brisket chili with it.

    It’s pretty fucking great.

    I soak my wood chips in DL overnight and then smoke ribs! no brining, Memphis dust rub! then use the soaking DL liquid instead of water to the water tray. Amazing!

    I feel like the brine is the most effective way to flavor the entire muscle since the salt has ample opportunity to bring the rest of the flavors into the meat. There's some science there (I think), but I'm no scientist (I know).

    Either way, I like to rinse and dry brined meat before introducing them to heat. Which means you can throw on a (non-salted) dry-rub to get that nice bark while still having the entire pork butt seasoned & salted. Best of both worlds.

    A two-day dry rub will work similarly, but I think a brine expedites the process (surface area or something). Either way, a Dark Lord brine would be real tasty as long as your careful with the additional sugar.

    Instead of a pork butt, I'd prefer to do short rib, beef cheeks, or even brisket. Dark-lord brined, smoked, Korean-inspired, beef tacos? I'm all over that.

    I do that with my ribz.
    Interesting. I may have to try this.
    Double brining is in my future.
