One-armed BBQ with my lil-man

[cypertj]

A little over a month ago I was involved in a motorcycle accident while on my way home from work. Long story short, I'm in a splint/cast on my right arm for about 3 months. Right now I'm rocking 2 titanium plates, 10 screws, and 3 pins.

I decided it was time for some smoking so I grabbed a 5 pound butt and a 3 pound chuck roast to throw on the smoker in the morning.

I enlisted a little help.



Here's what we're working with. Injected the butt with a mixture of apple juice, wooster sauce, and hog waller. Then rubbed it with more hog waller. Injected the chuckie with some full of bull beef injection and rubbed with a SPOG mixture.










Everything is chilling in the fridge and I'll update with some more pics tomorrow. So glad I had my son to help me otherwise this would not have happened.

Sorry about the accident but it looks like you're turning lemons into lemonade to me!

It also looks like your turning your helper into a smoking nut like the rest of us. Look at the eyes in the last pic, that's great!

Glad to see you have a helper that is taking interest in Q. Be sure to post pics of your cook.

This weekend is the in-laws 29th wedding anniversary and they took off for the weekend so my wife, kids, and I are staying at their place this weekend with my sister in-law who has cerebral palsy. Here's my FIL's pit getting warmed up.



When I checked his pit out yesterday I noticed his thermo was stuck on 450. I tried to clean it up and see if it would start working but didn't have any luck, so I hooked him up with one of the Tel-trus from my project since it's still on hold. His pit is holding 250 like a boss.



Loaded it up at 8:00, and had coffee with my son by the pit this morning. He's hanging in there for the entire cook.

Finished product. I finished the chuckie off kinda like burnt ends, and pulled the butt after the bone pulled loose.

Hate to hear of the injury, but it looks like you got a excellent smoker's assistant outta the deal.
