    Smoking Ribs

    Same as above, usually 3 to 5 hours and toothpick that slides in and out like butter tells me when its done. I started with the 321 and 221 method but found this works better for me and the results are very consistent.

    Following Aaron Franklins video for first ever brisket. How much water should i put in the bowl?
