2 - 4 rib roasts, about 9 lb. each.  after a night in cheesecloth in the fridge

rubbed with paste of chopped garlic, Dijon, evoo, fresh parsley, thyme, old bay, pepper and possibly too much salt about 1-1/2 TB L. Nope salt just right J Plastic wrapped and back into fridge overnight.

 preheated cse to 300, then added chips, 3-4 oz - 1/2 cabernet oak.1/2 apple, meat, then lowering heat to 240.

after about 1-1/2 hours, lowered heat to 225, they were 125 and 129 in a total of 3-1/2 hours!!! what the heck??

had to baby them along til 5:30!  double foiled, added some cabernet & kept them in the smoker, but kept the heat LOW.

plus 6 heads of garlic. our typical Christmas weather. This kept the rain off the smoker and me.

Thank you dear! Cheers to you too. That looks sooo good. Your either watchin out for vampires or we share a passion for garlic too. You definitely know how to serve a good beer, good glasses aren't only for wine. We went to a steak joint not too long ago and I ordered a $9 abbey beer, the guy brought it to me in a frosted pint glass

 We have to respect our brews and beef like the above. Merry Christmas darlin, from Amelia, me and our future sous chef.
