    Beef Back Ribs "aka Dino Bones" on sale at Publix.

    You know I tried to make them one time and I didnt care for it, there wasnt enough meat on the bones for me. Maybe it was just that particular batch of ribs?

    First MES Smoke over. May need some advice!

    the Temp readin on my MES is not really that accurate, your temp may have been to high. For me to have an internal temp in the smoker of 225, I have to set the smoker temp to 198. Your smoker temp may have been higher than you thought.

    Sirloin roast cooking temp please (for chili) inprocess image

    Sirloin roast cooking temp please (for chili) inprocess image

    So I am finally gonna make Soflaquers chilli verde, I have two 4 pound roasts in the smoker but it occurs to me that I dont know what the correct temp is that I should shoot for. I know brisket for slicing is about 180 but this is going in chili and isnt a brisket. My plan is to cut it up for...

    Cooking now and I have white smoke, what to do?

    Wow thats fantastic, yesterday I was able to make it maintain temp for several hours so I guess I am getting better at it. Maybe it is my Brinkman smoker or maybe its me or a combination of the both. But I think the trick is to fill the smoker with wood, dial it in and then let it run. The...

    Cooking now and I have white smoke, what to do?

    I put the holes in the bottom and sides, I also have had good results using all wood, instead of charcoal, Charcoal didnt seem to want to get hot enough very often. I also have the pan resting on the floor of the smoker, well it is in a roasting pan sitting on the bottom, so I can clean the...

    Cooking now and I have white smoke, what to do?

    Basically Two 10" logs about the diameter of my forearm, and I beleive it is a maple. But I just opened it and it looks like my two logs had burned down to about a 1/2 pan of coals, which is less than I ussually keep in it. So I threw an additional two logs in there hopefully this will solve it...

    Dutch's "Wicked Baked Beans"

    I made it this weekend and it was a huge hit, did a double portion right off the back. I cooked uncovered and a nice smoky film developed on the top which I stired into the mix when I took it out, next time I will stir throughtout the cooking. Only hitch I ran into was that I put two Jalapenos...

    19 LB Top Round & two 8 lb Butts

    So with that much meat how do you keep the temperature consistent at the different levels in your smoker? I have a Brinkman Verticla with two shelves for food, but the top shelf can be quite a bit cooler than the lower cooking shelf. I cook with all wood by the way.

    Season and Marinate or Rub... or both?

    THanks, I have actually done a brisket, before with Rub, but it was the flat section not the whole thing. But I do see your point for an undertaking of this size maybe I should just play it safe and use my rub, I just dont want to get burned out on the Cayenne brown sugar thing :) But I guess...
