    Thinking about cooking Gator either for UGA/LSU  game but esp. for ga/fl  was going to make a chile but had thought about smoking about 2 hours first for flavor  what about brining it to get more moisture in meat, wrip in bacon and smoke maybe 2 hours then cut in small chunks for chile.  What do...

    How did you come up with your screen name?

    I live in CULLOWHEE and I am a strong lifelong UGA fan (DAWG) so you put that together to make CULLOWHEEDAWG. By the way Cullowhee is located in the mountains of North Carolina

    IT WAS BARK'IN ALL NIGHT LONG!!!

    As long as it was good to eat. FINE. It seems all the gas or charcoal smokers take more time and money than our old wood ash pits did. I might have to consider going back to the old pit. Don't need too many modifications. Cullowheedawg

    Can't seem to get baby back ribs right (UPDATE)

    I agree with temp problem. Do you depend on smoker therm or do you see an oven temp to verify verifying is a must. Also keep it cooking not looking. Hope you figure it out. I do think taking the membrane is good but not your problem. Cullowheedawg

    I have tried a lot of stuff to help with rubs. Mustard. Oil. Butter etc. but my favorite esp with hog is a head of minced garlic. I mix the garlic with the rub and really rub it in. Cover well and sit overnight. Then smoke away. Let. Me know if you try it and what you think. Have not done with...
