    Love your energy and how you demonstrate all the videos you really love this stuff makes it exciting haha. These videos are great, not to big of a sales pitch perfect explanation of all the products & recipes used. I forget your working for FOGO, pitch is so good you make it feel like you're cooking from home great production haha.

    Cap’n, excellent video as always. I appreciate the Sunday drops. Question for ya, I’m usually aggressive with my trimming (I’m long in the tooth and try to be good), would that type of trimming affect the end result.

    • @FOGOcharcoal
      @FOGOcharcoal  Рік тому

      Nah, I think you would be just fine, especially with the Dutch Oven catching all of the juices.

    Captain Ron, am I wasting my time by putting an additional pan of water when cooking the pork butt? And, what do you think of cooking to 165 degrees on a grate on top of the Romertoph like the earlier pork butt recipe?

    • @FOGOcharcoal
      @FOGOcharcoal  Рік тому

      You know what? The water pan thing is really a matter of personal preference in my opinion. The way that Eggs are designed, they're meant to hold moisture in. This should eliminate the need for a water pan. I do have some friends who swear that it helps to use one.

    Question, is it the method of cooking that lets the pork but get to 203 in 6 or 7 hours? Mine usually take 12 - 13 but I've never done one in a dutch oven with marinade. Gonna try this tomorrow.

    • @FOGOcharcoal
      @FOGOcharcoal  Рік тому

      The Dutch oven helps a lot because it is now cooking in its own juices. The cooking temp will also have a lot to do with it.

    Good morning.
    Captain Ron, yay or nay to injecting some of the mojo into the pork shoulder before cooking? If yay, would you do it before marinating or after the onions have soaked in the mojo during marinating?
    I understand keeping all of the marinade gets on all the meat once it’s shredded, but I wonder if injecting would intensify the flavors even more.
    And yes to getting a Caja Chino. I’ve been wanting one for years. I would love to see what you would come up with other than a whole suckling pig.

    I've cooked a lot of lechon asado over the years because my family is Cuban and this game me a lot of good ideas, particularly adding the onion to the mojo. If I would criticize one aspect of this recipe is that I don't think you will get a very crispy skin with it (known as "cuerito).

    • @FOGOcharcoal
      @FOGOcharcoal  Рік тому +1
