[fourthwind]

BB's in the smoker with Maple and a bit of whisky barrel oak. rubbed with yellow mustard, then with my sweet hot rub.

Going to add some yard bird leg quarters here in a few that have been in a brine. Smoking them for a few hours then going to finish on the grill.

*burp* excuse me.. It's hard to get to the PC and post when your in a food coma from hell LOL. Ribs and Yard bird finished. dang good eats. I have been chasing a certain flavor with my ribs and chicken. The pile of bones on the table after dinner say's the family approves, but I still haven't found that nervana yet. But I am getting closer with every smoke

The wood you're using sounds like it'd have a great effect on the meat. I've never used maple but have heard nothing but good things about it.

Really nice looking smoke ya did!

Look pretty good. The search is half the fun!

I have used the maple twice, and so far I really like it! I wish I could find it in chunks instead of chips. The last smoke with it was a ham, and it was incredible. In my opinion it has just a slightly deeper and sweeter taste than Alder. The oak whiskey barrel chunks I think add more aroma than anything else. especially during the smoke! You can smell the whiskey when it's evaporating out of the wood.

That looks great!

Where did you come up with the whiskey barrels in Thornton?

Nice looking Q, thanks for sharing. If I wasn't about to pass out from being so tired at 3:22 in the am I would say that "damn I'm hungry" it looks so good.

I found a bag at a local market. It's the Jack Daniels stuff, but it was in chunks instead of chips which I hadn't seen yet. I have been using the chips for quite a few years. Wood other than mesquite and hickory is getting hard to find around here for some reason, and large chunks are even harder. As I am getting into using the BBGOSM, I am seeing the light with the larger chunks than the chips. I am hoping the stores will start re stocking their shelves soon for the summer BBQ season.
