    Dr. Pepper, Really?

    As far as flavor vs. smoke; I believe I read that Dr. P tenderizes the meat. Not sure?

    Dr. Pepper, Really?

    Picked me a butt up tonight. Thought of trying something different and seem to recall using DR. PEPPER to marinate with. Interested to hear who has tried it and how much do you use? Any other items added to the mix? Thanks.

    Need Reassurance on time

    I bought a 11# 4 bone Rib Roast to do for Xmas Day and it is my first one ever. Gonna smoke at 225f and was planning about 45mins. per pound. Shooting for the 130-135 internal. Timing is the question??????? I have heard: 30-45 mins. per pound to 1 hr. per pound. That would be like 8-11 hrs...

    smoke time on a butt

    No need to smoke after 160F. Double wrap in foil and you can finish in the oven till internal temp hits 190-205.

    Element know how question???

    So, I can buy the Luhr Jensen power cord and solder that to the element? Do I have to cut that end adapter off? I would just use it as a secondary...plug it in when it is 10~F outside. Help get it up to temp. Then let the MES do it's thing. Took awhile to get up to 225F Saturday morning...
