Here's the wings, just a smile brine and smoke. Crisped the skins a bit on the old gas grill:
And the ribs after spritzing with an apple juice/brown sugar mix for the last hour an a half, ready to come off the grill:
I've had a MES for several years, but have wanted to try it old school for a while. I bought a Weber kettle for the Fourth of July weekend, and broke it in by grilling some chicken, steaks and assorted sides over the past week.
Last night I set up a trial smoke to see how it was going to go...

I also just pulled a pork tenderloin and...

I've been smoking for a couple of years now, mainly ribs, pork steaks and butts. I do like to take a good...
