This method of using a Traeger or other brand is to primarily cook at a very low temperature for a long time. This is best to absorb those great smoked flavors from the chips or pellets, and allow the meat to open up and absorb your dry rub or sauces.
Meat thermometer – this is the best meat thermometer for smoker. It can be used in your oven and barbecue too
- There’s nothing worse than overcooking the meat and you’re ready to eat. OR not knowing the correct temperature of the meat to be safe and sickness occurs.
Whether you’re planning on smoking baby back ribs, beef brisket or a pork shoulder, this cooking time sheet will come in handy.
There are so many types of meat to choose from. Start with a small piece of meat first.
Keep in mind that slow cooking at lower smoker temperatures are great for larger pieces. However some cuts like brisket need a higher temperature to break the meat down. The most important part is to check the internal temperature before serving.
