    First Stab at Pork Belly

    Decided to give Pork Belly a try. Thinking of going with my standard as far as rubs go: Onion Powder Garlic Power Salt Pepper Celery Seed Cook low and slow until done. Now I decided since this was my first shot not to get a slab. I went with pre-cut from Costco. Anything I should look out...

    Temperature Question

    You were exactly correct. Meat is hotter and temps are where I want them. I don't remember my last smoke being that rough a start. It has been 225-250 for a lil over an hour. Will need to remember this for next time. Thank you I was in real panick mode.

    My stomach said "tri-tip" I said sure!

    Temperature Question

    The more meat you have in the smoker the higher the temp you need correct? Smoking 5 racks of ribs and temp is slow to 225 and I have it up in between. High and medium. With a single rack and two whole chickens I could hold 225 at medium heat.
