I've read that smoke no longer penetrates the meat at around 160 degrees (meat temp) so the oven first method would greatly reduce your smoke ring if that's true. I don't know, but that's what I've read.

Lots of food experts say the meat doesn’t take anymore smoke penetration after 3 hours. The remaining time is just cooking and developing a bark/crust. Obviously flavors continue to develop but the “smoking” of the internal meat is complete. Its not going any deeper. For sure the smoke ring won’t develop well if it all if baked first.

No way in heck am I’m doing oven first. … heck the only time any BBQ of mine or folks I know in the game sees an oven is if I/we have the smoke and bark complete and its wrapped like you did at the end above. I have to be busy or have to go somewhere where I can’t watch the smoker … once wrapped heat is heat so it doesn’t really matter where it finishes though.

That’s like cooking chicken in the oven as is, then pulling it out and shaking your favorite seasoning on it as it cools on the plate.

My plan 165, wrap it, pull 205ish after probing. Going to be freaking awesome
















I hope

Good luck this time. I started following Jason's method and I haven't had a bad one yet. My Pit Boss works perfectly. It is trial and error. The older models I have found have a temp variation of up to 50° sometimes. That may have some impact on your cook as well.

Good luck JP!

Trying something different this time. I’m put point end towards smoke vent.

Pulling for you.

Point toward the heat is always the safe play.

So what’s the verdict?

I did another a few days ago & like suggested wrapped in a towel & let it rest in the ice chest for about 4 hours & came out fantastic...this thread has been great.
