    Smoking my first baby backs

    For some reason, the ribs tasted really good today! I don't know if the glaze had time to sink in or if my taster was off yesterday from inhaling smoke all morning! I am still going to heed the excellent advice I have received here....adjust temps, consider sand, and add sugar to the rub. You...

    Smoking my first baby backs

    The glaze was applied at the end of the smoke, right after I took them out of the smoker(and the end of the 2-2-1). It is a recipe that Emeril Lagasse made on GMA one morning and includes orange juice, sugar, cider vinegar, soy sauce, and puréed chitpole peppers in adobo sauce. You cook it for...

    Smoking my first baby backs

    The outside tastes almost charred to me. I don't know if I am just used to the way they taste using the "foil wrapped oven only" method, or if I should have cut the time in the smoker unfoiled. I did 2-2-1 at 225-235(with the occasional jump to 240). I like the texture, but the taste on the...

    Smoking my first baby backs

    This is the finished product. They are meaty and moist, but I think I should have used a different rub. I used the rub/glaze I always use when baking the ribs in the oven. There is no sugar in the rub because there is so much in the glaze. I think the smoked version is firmer on the outside so...

    Smoking my first baby backs

    I am having a lot of fluctuation in my temperature. I wasn't planning on smoking them while they were foiled, but the temps sink to 202-205 if I don't add chips. I,am trusting the Maverick and oven thermometer and not the readout from the MES which reads higher. Any ideas on how to keep the heat...

    Couldn't sleep, light it up.

    What type of beef is that? A rib roast? It looks divine! What kind of rub did you use? I would love the details....something like that on the table could bring smiles at my house.

    Smoking my first baby backs

    I am smoking my first baby backs on our MES40. I have 3 racks and a few brats (since I had the space...first time for those too!) I hope to figure out how to upload pictures. Keeping my fingers crossed that I have a happy husband after all this! I applied a rub last night and left them plastic...

    New to smoking and excited to learn!

    My husband and I decided to get a Masterbuilt 40 inch smoker as a 30th wedding anniversary present to each other. I have found the advice here so helpful and hope to one day know what I'm doing! We are from Lewisville, NC. Thanks to the folks in this forum, we are now armed with a Maverick...
