Zack's Molasses Poke Butt
« Reply #-1 on: June 20, 2012, 05:51:34 PM »
Did an 8lb butt in the Traeger. Started it at 11pm last night. Pulled it at 195* this morning at 11:30 am.
Nothing fancy, just some sammies.
$2.08/lb at Wally Mart


Dusted with Zacks Hickory Rub then painted with molasses then dusted again with Zacks Hickory.


Loaded up the hopper with some Hickory (Traeger) the perfect mix is still in the boxes they were shipped in. Maybe next time.  :)


Various stages of the smoke









Done, got a pretty nice color to it.







Here are some semi pulled shots by hand. After this I chopped up the bark and put it in with the rest.







Here is a small sammie for my 9 year old.

Lets say I will not be using CYM again. Ya cant beat the color and the flavor is better. The bark is the best Ive had come out.
