Oklahoma Joe's Bronco Pro - Pork Butt
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 26 ต.ค. 2020
- On this video I smoked up about a 10lbs pork butt! The weather wasn't the best during this cook but the Oklahoma Joe's Bronco Pro ran like a boss! I used a combo of B and B Oak Briquettes and chunks of Post Oak for the fuel, kept pit temps between 275-300F, and I used a homemade rub! The flavor on this butt was top notch but to me it pulled a bit tough but she still ate just fine! So to wrap up I would have to say that the Bronco Pro is quickly becoming my favorite smoker and for anyone in the market for a UDS type of cooker I highly suggest the Bronco Pro or if you don't want to spend that much I would suggest the Bronco!

Thanks for the video. Glad to see the Bronco operating in less than ideal conditions. Living in Nebraska we get similar weather and I smoke and grill year round.
You’re welcome John! And yes the Bronco Pro runs really good in bad weather!
Looks great man! You are absolutely right about B&B briquettes with the oak chunks. I tried the hickory lump with oak chunks the other day and I think that’s how I’m going to do it from now on. It was amazing.
I agree with that!
Big sucker really cooked!!! One thing I have found out is wind are these Bronco's friend. I cooked a TriTip at 304 till 203... I had the intake opened about like you did, the wind never got below 25mph. Easiest cook ever on the Bronco and best TriTip ever. Great VIDEO and more on that Beast... And keep that white stuff up North and don't let it come down the MS to W.KY
Hahaha I’m looking forward to more of that white stuff! Snow removal is kind of a hobby lol. And ya the wind didn’t effect this thin at all! 🍻
Great video! Just got my Bronco yesterday and assembled it. I did use some sealant between the 2 drums and on the bottom, so waiting a good 24 hours to let that set. Picked up a 7.5lb butt for this weekend. I've watched a bunch of your videos, good stuff! 👍
That’s awesome! Such a fun cooker to use! Good luck with the butt!! And thank you I appreciate it! 🍻
Hey Bri! Thanks for showing us what's to come........cold weather and snow. I like that Pit and it's possibilities.
I liked your method on this with the paper.........I believe it was the animal and it just didn't have the marbling you are used to.
Still a 👍👍....looked great! I will look for post oak now. Hey..... the Party Rub was really good on some loin ribs I did.
It's very peppery which I like. I need to use it on some beef ribs. 👍 Thanks for the heads up on that stuff! 👍🍺 \m/
Hey Ken I love me some snow! And the Party Rub is legit my favorite on everything Pork!! And ya I’m really liking the Bronco Pro!!! Thanks for watching sir! 🍻🍻
And ya I love the pepper in that rub! I actually contacted the guy who makes it and got a 5 pound bag of it!
I have the bronco pro and a brisket is very good on this cooker
Man I've got a wsm but I want a bronco now since it seems way more weatherproof
Awesome video ! Im switching over from a propane smoker and looking to go to a charcoal. This video has helped me make my choice .
Thanks! And happy to help!
Did you make the jump to charcoal yet? What’s your thoughts If ya did and which cooker did ya go with?
Take care and be safe out there
BBQ in Minnesota is a challenge sometimes. I’m in Austin Mn AKA Spam town USA. We’ve got a non stop supply of pork, but the weather sucks.
Mmmmm spam! And ya it makes for some sporty cooks that’s for sure!
Beautiful end product.
@javier chavez thank you!
I got cold just watching that video! I agree post oak on pork is awesome!!
Oh ya the best IMO! And just a bit on the chilly side lol
Another great cook Brian! Mini mad horse really wants some pork...Oklahoma Joe did great in those weather conditions!
Hahaha he for sure does Jay! And the OKJ worked flawlessly!
Awesome that thing is impressive. im looking forward to getting mine in. thanks for sharing
Thanks Brad! And how many grills do you need?! 😜
But I honestly love the BP! Are you getting the regular one or the pro? And what color?
@@MadHorseBBQ i got the std bronco the pro was out of stock. its the black wanted orange but no go. i got rid of a couple pit bosses LOL and wanted a bronco for a while i like my pit barrels but like the idea of the using controller in the bronco
@@bradlucasbbq6125 nice Brad!
The buther paper seemed very wet, as you said foil would have been the better choice as it wouldn't have absorbed so much juices but looks amazing all the same
Thanks! I agree.
Looks good. I just got one for Christmas from my son. Want to use it New Years eve but it's going to be high of 35 for the day. But watching you it looks like it will work great here in Kansas. New to smoking and I was reading not to use lighter fluid. Why is that maybe taste just wondered if you had the answer. Thanks
Ya the Bronco pro runs great in the cold weather so you’ll be just fine! And I either use a tumbleweed in the coal or use a chimney starter to get my coal going. Lighter fluid is frowned upon by a lot of people. And to be honest I’d only use it in 1 of my cookers. All the other ones I’m starting like I said above. Hope this helps you out.
That in a big sandwich and a couple nectar of the gods.
Exactly!
Looks great!
Thank you Josh!
I’m curious what your grate temp was if by chance you have any idea? My chamber thermometer says 230-250 and my grate was about 310 325 curious as to what one I go by?
Hmmmm I can’t say I ever look at the grill thermometer. So if I mentioned temp it was the grate temp.
do you change the opening of the vents whenever you get temperature spikes after opening the barrel, or let it be and wait until it goes back down to previous temp? Thanks
I never touch the exhaust during a cook, I always leave it wide open on my drums. If temps spike on me I Adjust accordingly the intake. But I rarely have that issue with the pro.
Once u put the BBQ sauce on it, it'll pull it together!! Looks great.
Thank you sir! 🍻
How do you know at what time to wrap in foil? Also, should you spray from time to time? Nice video, thanks
Once you get the color and the rub is set I will wrap. And spraying is optional imo.
Love the video. Coming time to soon replace my offset, been looking at these bronco pros. On the grilling side of things how many steaks will that rack hold?
Thanks! And hmmm well it’s the same as a 22” weber kettle so you could prolly fit 8 steaks easy.
@@MadHorseBBQ cool, thanks. Knew it was a 22" but I've always used offsets so always has large square grates.
Is this more efficient with fuel vs a WSM 22?
IMO I would say yes!
Looks great 👍🏻.
Thank you! 🍻
Thank you! 🍻
So, how long after you initially light your charcoal is it before you throw on the pork butt? 30-45 minutes? I am just curious as to how long it takes for the nasty start up smoke to clear up.
Yep I’d say right around 30-45 minutes if you use 1 tumbleweed. If you use multiple it’s quicker than that or if you use a chimney to start the coal it’s about 20-30.
@@MadHorseBBQ Thanks for the quick reply! I’ll be doing my first pork butt on my new bronco after I get this midnight shift in!
@@joshfriend7103 awesome!!
Do you find that the lid paint bubbles up over time since the heat goes straight up to it? I am deciding between black or orange Bronco Pro, and if bubbling becomes an issue, the black will be much easier to sand and touch up than the orange.
I have not had that issue at all. I would think that if you burn it in at 250 for a few hours it should cure the paint if it isn’t already.
@@MadHorseBBQ Ok, thank you!!
Do you have to put that diffuser plate in? What would happen if you didn’t?
Nope. It works just fine without it
The diffuser plate is sposed to heat up and disperse the heat more evenly but I’ve found that it depends upon what your cooking whether you use it or not. It still cooks wonderful without it but I like the drippings dripping directly into the fire which creates a really nice flavor profile to whatever your cooking
Good luck and enjoy Chad!
Great cook and impressive new cooker! Were you able to leave the exhaust wide open even with that wind?
Then u answered the last part at the end of your video.
Yes sir wide open the whole time! 🍻
Looks good, fella. 🍻
Thanks Woody! 🍻
Butcher paper for brisket only! 😉
Lol
Did you cook with the fat up or down?
thanks for sharing your results . i have a OJ's longhorn combo , it my first and only smoking experience , but i kinda have the grill bug and want a new toy . i'm between the OJ bronco and the WSM 18 , any thoughts or opinions between them ? i'm getting better with the offset side of my longhorn combo and i can do a pretty decent shoulder/butt on it , but the charm of babysitting the fire box/temperature is loosing it's appeal . so i'm thinking about something a little more versatile , but also that i can still play with .
You’re welcome! And they’re both essentially the same style cooker but I’d go with the Bronco. It’s a lot more versatile of a cooker and it comes with everything.
So did you end up getting a Bronco or did ya go with your other choice? If you got either one of them, what’s your thoughts? Hopefully you’ve had a happy tummy for the past year!
Take care, be safe out there!!
@@1982MCI I got the bronco and I'm loving it . Mine was a PITA getting the 2 barrel sections together and it leaks grease/oil there so I'll suggest putting a gasket there . And the greas cup is a PITA to get to because there's barely enough room to slide it out . I made a little platform on the side of our deck and left the middle open and that solved both issues . The deck is only a few inches above the ground where I put it at . Take care , jeff .
@@JeffB1961 mine was already assembled when I got it and fired it up yesterday for the first time and it’s not leaking anywheres. Thank you for the info tho.
I did a chicken on it last night and I’m gonna do a butt and baby backs tomorrow along with a couple racks of beef ribs
Nice. How do you think a brisket would do on it?
Thanks! And I’m doing a brisket cook sometime this week! But I think it’ll do really good! 🍻
Does your bronco pro needs a drip pan underneath the smoker. Mine leaks everywhere lol
Haha yep it does. I have a small dog water dish I keep under it.
@@MadHorseBBQ I figured just wanted to check. I use the ash catcher out of a old Webber. Slides right in and out. Learned a ruff lesson after my first pork butt. Looked like someone changed the oil in the driveway with no drip pan. Lol.
@@adamlesly388 hahaha same here. What’s crazy is the dish I use for a catch takes forever to fill up. But if I don’t have it under it my driveway looks that same.
@@MadHorseBBQ yeah I gotta change mine every cook. Lol. I should look for something bigger. Love the videos bro. Happy smoking.
@@adamlesly388 thanks bro!
What do you clean your bronco with??
I use this process.

The little Boss is ready!! NEED a bone in his mouth!!!❤️❤️
You never wrap pork in butcher paper
I’ll wrap with whatever I want lol
You may never but a whole lot of us do. I've wrapped probably 2000 pounds of pork butts in the last couple years and never had a complaint about the finished product.
What is your reason for not wrapping pork in butcher paper??
wow this whole video is gross
Haha ok. How come?
