Old school bbq

[tercel89]

 

If you don't know what this brick structure is and what that old burn barrel is for then you aren't from the south. I made this bbq pit and I swear it's the best thing I ever made. The burn barrel , I cut it to be able to shovel my wood when it falls through the rebar I have running through it. I'm cooking 3 shoulders today and it just seems like a lost southern thing. These newer and younger people use grills and such but you can't beat a good old pit and burn barrel. Shoveling wood coals as they fall through the rebar every hour for around 12 to 15 hours is a long haul but worth it. Just thought I'd share this. I'll post my cooked pork this afternoon.

Thanks buddy for turning the picture around. I've been sipping on fire water to pass the time between putting more wood in and I'm a tad bit into the wind .  But if you've ever did this,  it's a good way to pass the time cause its usually 12 hours or so fir a few pork shoulders .

It's funny you post this because I've been scrounging free block all year to do a whole hog pit style. Just waiting on fall to set in. Good BBQ is becoming a lost art because its that 4 letter word a lot are afraid of

Ok after 13 hours it's done. I pull mine but not too fine and leave it in small chunks.

Slap some of that on a bun with some slaw and hot sauce and send it over!
