Smokin' on my Big Easy: a video post

I'm having a lot of fun with my Char-Broil electric smoker named The Big Easy, so much so that I was inspired to make a video. When it first arrived at my doorstep, I harbored doubts of The Big Easy's smokability. It was, after all, electric. But as you will witness in my goofball video, this baby brings it. I've decided she's a she. As for names, I'm thinking Bertha or Betty or She-easy. I'll take suggestions. You do all name your grills and smokers, right?

I'm writing a full post about smoking a whole picnic pork shoulder for Char-broil, but until then, check this out!

  1. I have never used an electric smoker. It looks like it would be a lot "She-easy" than charcoal and wood. With the right recipes and a great chef like Julie how could I go wrong. She Smoke would be a great asset to my library of cook books.

    1. Thank you, Diane! And I see you name vote. I'm leaning toward She-Easy myself :). By the way Christo over at the blog Chez What? is having a She-Smoke cookbook giveaway contest. I'll let him know you commented!

  2. Nice looking picnic! I might pick one up, our grocery store had them priced low this weekend. I need to keep the skin to make REAL chicharones. I usually get lazy and skip it.

  3. Thank you, Chris! You know, I don't smoke many shoulders at home because I get enough pork in my life at work. But this was fun to do "for old time's sake" in the backyard.

  5. That looks delicious! How long did you cook it? I'm looking to cook a brisket, flat end about 5 lbs. Wanna do it low and slow but not sure how to extend cooking time once temp reaches set point on Big Easy 2 in 1. Any advice?
