Instructions

  1. 01

    Combined the water, seasonings & meat to a marinade for 24 hours.

  2. 02

    Fired up the Smoker with lump charcoal & apple wood to 180°

  3. 03

    Allowed the smoker to warm up for 15 mins.

  4. 04

    Placed the meat inside the smoker on the cooking grates.

  5. 05

    Periodically flipped and rotated the meat for even smoke.

  6. 06

    Tip: The key is to keep the temperature at 180° and cold smoke the meat. If you go over 180°, the meat will begin to cook and that’s what you want to avoid. It’s key to keep the temperature under 180°.

    Removed the meat after 4 hours.

  8. 08

    Rest for a few hours.
