    2016 superbowl eats with pics

    Hey guys. Here come the superbowl threads. Lol. So here's mine. Had 11 people over at my house. I had 2, 5lb pork butts, 15 jalapeño poppers wrapped in bacon, 10 red hots, 5 polish sausage, and 2 racks of beef ribs. Needless to say, the ribs are gone and there's a few spoonfuls of pork left for...

    brisket mirac

    Hello SMF. Today I smoked my first brisket. Was I nervous, yes. Did I make mistakes, yes. Was it still good? Absolutely. I know spare ribs and tenderloin are different types of meat, but I suck at those and I feel like I burn them. And with everyone saying how delicate brisket is, I was kind of...

    pork ribs

    Well what's supposed to be the IT? Ive seen some people say 145-150, others 190. Then I read your post so I'm going to do that next time. I just don't get why my ribs always turn out burnt and dry. Could it be because I don't foil them and they dry out? Or because I don't sauce it because I...

    pork ribs

    Lol they looked that way. Ddnt taste the same. Still tasted tough, but it kind of slid off the bone. Although pulling them.between the bones, you had to use A LOT of force to rip apart. Idk like some parts were moist. And others tough and burnt kind of. Brawtwurst turned out good tho.

    pork ribs

    No its not damaged is the weird thing! Since day 1 it was always like that. I just figured it was always right. Then I tried it on my propane grill oneday, the 2 Temps ddnt match up and that began my suspicions. But hey, food temp on my ribs say 145, but it's only been like 3 hours. And the bend...

    pork ribs

    Ok so a few things. 1. My maverick blows. It's 77 degrees off. 2. Never will I ever use the light the bag method again. That was stupid. 3. The WSM thermometer is spot on to my bbq sniper temperature pen. I usually did the minion method on my old smoker, thought the bag would've been easy, naw...

    pork ribs

    Ok so, I started with a bag that you can light to get a fire going. It said it was about a chimney (although it looked very small and wasn't although easy to light as the directions said). So that went burning, and was fine. I threw some wood chips in after I threw the ribs on, and that's when...

    pork ribs

    Yea the water bowl is full. I'm thinking about adding another chimney. I'm just confused because I know WSMs are really good and hold temperature well. It went from 255, to 165 within 20min. According to maverick
