Meats

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Meats

    Start by seasoning each type of meat with your favorite dry rub or salt and pepper. Let them sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes before smoking.

  2. 2

    Smoke the Brisket

    Preheat your smoker to 225°F (107°C). Place the brisket in the smoker and smoke for 1 to 1.5 hours per pound, or until it reaches an internal temperature of 195°F (90°C). Wrap in foil and let it rest for 30 minutes before slicing.

  3. 3

    Smoke the Pulled Pork

    Add the pulled pork to the smoker after the brisket has been smoking for about 2 hours. Smoke until it reaches an internal temperature of 195°F (90°C), which typically takes 6-8 hours. Once done, let it rest before shredding.

  4. 4

    Smoke the Turkey

    Smoke the turkey breasts for about 2-3 hours at the same temperature until it reaches 165°F (74°C). Let it rest before slicing.

  5. 5

    Cook the Ribs

    Smoke the pork ribs for 4-5 hours until tender, glazing them with your favorite BBQ sauce in the last 30 minutes of cooking.

  6. 6

    Place the hot link sausages on the smoker for about 1-1.5 hours, or until they are cooked through and have a nice smoky flavor.

Serving

  1. 7

    Assemble the Sampler

    Once all the meats are cooked and rested, slice the brisket and turkey, shred the pulled pork, and cut the hot links into bite-sized pieces. Arrange all the meats on a platter with the ribs standing upright.

  2. 8

    Serve with Sides

    Serve the sampler with your choice of sides such as coleslaw, baked beans, or cornbread to complement the smoky flavors.
