ghost_shit 🪣<p>Today is the day...</p><p>This is after 30 minutes at ~232C, after which I reduced the temperature to ~149C, and spritzed with bourbon, maple syrup &amp; apple juice. The recipe suggests I keep cooking for up to 2½ hours, but the probe is telling me (after 1.5hrs) that it's already up to temperature (60C on the inside). I've turned the grill right down, and will continue to spritz on the half-hour.</p><p><a href="https://aus.social/tags/GreenHam" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>GreenHam</span></a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/FreshHam" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>FreshHam</span></a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/SmokedMeat" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SmokedMeat</span></a></p>
