I got the M1A PRE out for the first time in probably a year, did some decent shooting (it definitely prefers 175gr to 168gr bullets), got my reloads done, built a couple end tables, readjusted the seat on my road bike to get prepped for a tri, hung out with my brothers, and had barbeque ribs for four straight meals. I call this a great weekend.
Great weekend

I don't know what weekends are
! The only time I don't work is when it's hailing or pain has shut me down (weekend or not), so every day is all the same for me. I try too make every day a good day and enjoy what I can!

Managed to do some yard work in between the rain drops. I had purchased 4 Sig P239 mags and extender plates. Finally installing the extenders. The 1 extra round is a plus, but it certainly fits in my hand better. Swapped regular trigger for a flat trigger in the P365. I have some testing to do....

Are those the psat triggers or something like that?

Just the standard run of the mill Sig flat trigger. It was on sale recently for $35 so I grabbed one.

A direct replacement to your stock trigger for a smoother, more consistent pull.

It was a p-sait trigger. Not 100% on their different trigger types? From my understanding it's a precision adjustable type? I have the curved trigger on my 226. I'll have too check if it's p-sait or not?Just the standard run of the mill Sig flat trigger. It was on sale recently for $35 so I grabbed one.

You just take it slow and easy. Glad you are healing.

I worked…
But I’m getting up at 4:30 tomorrow morning to put a 7# pork butt in the smoker for work Tuesday night.
Be a fun morning; not often I have a beer before the sun comes up (and I haven’t been up all night). Should be a good day off.
I think a nice coffee porter will do nicely.

The flat trigger really makes a difference. Take a look at the MCarbo spring set for the P365. It’s makes it a very smooth shooter. I did both to mine and it transformed it.Just the standard run of the mill Sig flat trigger. It was on sale recently for $35 so I grabbed one.

What your secret rib for the pork butt?

A little late; my alarm went off, I didn’t hit snooze…but blinked for a good 45 minutes.
My rub is pretty basic. Lets the meat do most of the talking.
2C brown sugar
1/2C kosher salt
2Tbsp dry mustard (Colman’s)
1Tbsp smoked paprika
1.5tsp garlic powder
1.5tsp onion powder
1tsp cayenne
Last night, I gave it a healthy salt & pepper coat, let it dry brine overnight. Pulled the shoulder out at 4:45, hit it with the sugar rub, let it sit out while I set up the smoker. Went on just a little after 5:30. I figure 12 hours @225°, give or take; I’ll smoke until the stall (mix of cherry, hickory & maple, 1:1:1), then wrap in foil until it IT’s 205-210°, then unwrap and let it build bark for an hour or so…that’s always been my process, I like what I get.
Recipe sounds great Hans! Love the bark / crusty sections. Hopefully you stay awake long enough to enjoy.
