brother j p love that smoker

[@JPBBQ]

[@midnight141555]

The knots put out sour smoke

[@JPBBQ]

Good to know, appreciate the tip. Thanks for watching.

[@jimoray3]

You delivered again. You’re a Master BBQ Smoker Chef for sure

[@JPBBQ]

I appreciate that

[@DeshawnsBBQ]

Pulled pork looks good! Just received my LSG today. Just finished seasoning in it.

[@JPBBQ]

Right on man, congrats on your new smoker. Your gonna have a lot of fun with it. Thanks again.

[@jasonpapas5815]

JP, love your videos man. Great initials! How do you like the taste of the BBQ off the IVS vs your offset? Is it enough to make a difference if you could only have 1 of the smokers? Thanks man, smoke on!

[@JPBBQ]

The flavor of the offset is better due to using all wood. But I do like the ability to set it and forget it about the IVS. If I had to do with just one. It would be the offset. Thanks again for watching

[@scottpayne753]

Great video!! I bought 4 of your seasonings, they are great. Do me a favor, make a video using the water pan. I'm really thinking about getting a IVS and wanted to see a cook with it.

[@JPBBQ]

Great suggestion! Appreciate the support Scott. I will use it on my next smoke. Appreciate you supporting the channel.

[@scottpayne753]

Thank you, you're the man. I look forward to seeing it.

Good stuff, JP!

thanks Odeed, appreciate you watching and commenting.

I usually don't take pork butts out until they hit 202 internal if I'm making pulled pork sandwiches. That peach bbq sauce is amazing. GRILL ON!

[@JPBBQ]

thanks Russyl, appreciate the comment. I know what you mean. The pork was still very good. I could of let it go a little more and yes the peach sauce is great. thanks again.

[@Levidanjou]

Man! That turned out incredible Juan!

[@JPBBQ]

Thank you Levi, appreciate that very much.

[@tremaynemyles8276]

So you never close the top damper?

[@JPBBQ]

I never do. The instruction manual says to close it 2/3, But i rather control the air flow from the bottom ball valve. Thanks for watching and appreciate your comment.

[@tremaynemyles8276]

@@JPBBQ no thank you for making the videos. I just got this smoker so you're teaching me how to use it lol.

[@tremaynemyles8276]

@@JPBBQ i promise this is the last question lol. Do you think you'd make a video how you clean it after each use

[@JPBBQ]

@@tremaynemyles8276 most definitely take it into consideration. Thanks and feel free to ask as many questions as you like.

[@smalltownbbq600]

How is the smoke flavor on that unit considering doesn’t have much smoke ring

[@JPBBQ]

Not as pronounce compared to the offset stick burner. there was a small smoke ring. I think if I use more wood mixed in the charcoal that is would show more. I may try that on my next brisket cook. thanks for watching and commenting.

[@markcarr5142]

Smoke ring add nothing to meat if you judge bbq by the depth of the smoke ring, then you're judging it wrong. I won't. Go until the science of it, but you should educate yourself on why a smoke ring isn't as important as people think it is.

[@smalltownbbq600]

Ya I know what a smoke ring is. But considering it didn’t have one I wonder of smoke actually penetrated meat

[@markcarr5142]

@@smalltownbbq600 it's possible. I have a Pitmaker Safe, and after getting the coals nice and hot, I start using hickory or pecan wood logs to get my smoke flavor. I only use wood for about 4 hours, then I use charcoal to finish off the pork shoulder or brisket. I find that it doesn't overpower the meat with smoke, but gives it just enough to make it enjoyable. I've had brisket that's been smoked completely with wood, and I just don't like burping and tasting smoke flavor. Even Aaron Franklin says his bbq doesn't have a smoke ring, and people believe that he's the messiah to bbq.

[@benh580]

@@markcarr5142 I've seen aaron Franklin's bbq and it definitely has a smoke ring. You get that over powered smokey flavor be cause you're not burning a clean fire.

[@georgewilliams6328]

So why did you put your T-plates that way vrs the normal way JP?

[@JPBBQ]

For short cooks i like starting from the middle. Longer cooks i would of started from the side. thanks again for watching and commenting.

[@georgewilliams6328]

@@JPBBQ thank you very much, I learned something every time I watch you! I really enjoy your content!

[@GUSTAV1CC]

I prefer my shoulder like this than pulled

[@JPBBQ]

Appreciate that and thanks for watching.

[@DeshawnsBBQ]

Just got my LSG today. Seasoning right now.

[@JPBBQ]

Cool, appreciate you watching and commenting.

[@kennyutube123]

First! That IVS sure is nice, cheers JP.

[@JPBBQ]

thanks KB.

[@MRBEAR-qj1ei]

What's going on carna,l great video I wanted to ask you a question how long did it take to get your IVS? I'm on week 12 and I'm going crazy.

[@corylee2261]

Took me 21 weeks

[@MRBEAR-qj1ei]

@@corylee2261 WTH!! Wooow

[@JPBBQ]

Not exactly sure, but it did take a while. I remember getting the first email and was all exciting but it said due to the covid situation and having to shuffle employees around that it was gonna take a little while longer. After a while I just told myself to quit thinking about it cause the anticipation was killing me. I finally got a phone call telling me that it was getting close and it was being shipped soon. But the wait was worth it. thanks appreciate you watching and commenting.

[@fagundes1212]

I order mine on June 28 and I'm still waiting (was suppose to be delivered yesterday). Not Lone Stars fault on that though. Been about 24 weeks now.

[@MRBEAR-qj1ei]

@@fagundes1212 thank you , well doesn't look like I'll be getting mine in January all bad.

[@markn.7054]

I’ve haven’t used a picnic shoulder for pulled pork, that shoulder was so juicy. I’m gonna get one of those. Did you get the skin to crisp up? Thanks for sharing. Be well and stay safe.

[@JPBBQ]

Thank Mark, appreciate that. It was for sure very juicy, the skin did not crisp up. I wish it did but at these low temps its kinda hard to do that. Thanks again.

[@georgewilliams6328]

If you're not going to save any for your family JP hold up, I'm on my way over brother 🤣🍗🍖

[@JPBBQ]

Appreciate the compliment George. thanks for watching.

[@leosalas41ify]

I'll stick to pork butt instead of shoulder. Butt more lean...
