The last time I did a couple of racks of ribs I roasted a whole garlic with them for the last two hours. I roast it on the rack above my water pan. I slice just the top 1/4 inch off of the cloves, extra virgin olive oil, fresh ground pepper and ground sea salt. As someone already said, leave the...
funny, I wanted the 1280 because it has the rack. I use it extensively when I grill, especially for thick steaks and chicken.
Wally World had a better smoker for just a bit more but it didn't have a rack.
I have been using a brine on my chicken thighs with good success.
Sea Salt, and Thai Basil and some Thai Chili sauce and bit of fresh garlic.
the last ones were smoked with mulberry wood.
I am not sure what measurements you mean. I gave you the size of the pans I used. Each were 18"x13" I know that they look almost square but this site seems to compress some pictures.
I also got a 1280 for Father's Day. The FB side was 50 degrees hotter than the flue side.
I got two heavy duty (commercial) sheet pans, raised the FB side of the coal grate to it's highest position and the flue side to the lowest.

I did not line the bottom with foil...
Hi, happy to be here.
They kids chipped in and got me a Char-Broil 1280 Smoker. Hopefully it will be a good starter.
I am having a hard time finding reasonably priced hardwood chunks in NE Ohio.
Home Depot has some but pretty pricey. (I wish me had a Menard's around here.)
If anyone knows of a...
Hi, I got a Char-Broil 1280 Smoker for Father's Day. I know it's not a top drawer piece of equipment but hopefully it is good enough to get started.
My biggest problem right now is finding inexpensive chunks of hardwood. Home Depot has some but the price is outrageous. Hopefully I can get a rick...
