    Baking powder for crispy skin

    I have used a combination of corn starch and flour with great results when baking only.

    I thought I would give these ribs a try........and I was disappointed.

    They just didn't taste very good.  I would say a combination of the rub they use and the quality of the ribs.  Plus I can't stand when the skin is left on the back of the rack.  I considered taking it off but it would have been a task and I still don' t think it would have helped the flavor much.

     Well I saw these and since they already come with the rub on them I thought it would be worth a try.  The price was right too.  Do yourself a favor and never buy these. They just were not hat good.  Plus they left the skin on the back of the ribs.

    Prime beef brisket / Pork butt / RIbs = All nighter, cans of beer and Ancient Aliens.

    It is an 18" propane Smoke Vault by Camp Chef.  I really should have bought the 24" but this will do for at least another year.  The variance in actual temperature from the built in thermometer is about 20 degrees. (as you can see in the picture,  I have an additional thermometer hanging below...

    Make no mistake,  there were aliens to be seen.  About 2:30am and 8 beers later aliens came to my humble abode to check what all the smoke was about and the delicious smell.  I sent them on their way since they showed up early to the party.  They said they will be back.

    I did not spritz with anything.  There was a nice fat cap on the brisket so that worked out just fine.  I wrapped the brisket and the shoulder in foil and put in my cooler for about 5 hours.   Still hot when I pulled them out .   I will say this, It was fun to smoke both meats at the same time...
