    Sugar Maple or ...? For Ribs...

    I have a small Rib-off between friends coming up. I usually use sugar maple that I have for smoking them, although i'm wondering if thats too mild to show off the awesome power that is smoked ribs? Any other suggests. I use a spicy rub with a fairly sweet mop, if that helps any.

    Any Tips for making Jerky?

    I'm looking to do a batch of jerky sometime soon. I'm just not too sure as to how long I should do it, what heat to maintain. That sort of thing. I figure just a few charcoal lumps for maybe like 3 or 4 hours? Still, I could use a few pointers.

    3-2-1 Method Questions....

    Is there any way to convert the 3-2-1 Method to 4 hour smoking time instead of 6. Would it be like 2-1.33-0.66 Method? haha? Would that mess up the method? Or do you think I could pull it off?
