    Ribs

    I'm a newbie at smoking ribs. These look delicious! I've heard that it's best to do the 2-2-1 method over the 3-2-1 method when smoking ribs, could someone help educate me?  Thanks! Matt

    How long does the plateau last?

    It was done just shy of 15 hours. After it rested it fell apart just like you said it would. Looking forward to pulled pork sandwiches tonight! Thanks again to all of you for your help

    Thanks for the tips everyone. Eric, looks like I have some reading to do - thanks! Going on 13 hours now and it's at 185. I'll let you know how it turned out and with some pics.

    I'm using a MES 30 with a small water pan that I refill every so often

    Thanks Eric. It's tough being patient but the wait will be worth it. Would you recommend foiling it at this point? I worry about it drying out. Thanks, I'm still pretty new to this!

    How long does the plateau last?

    I've been smoking a pork shoulder for almost 10 hours now at about 225. It has stopped at 173 degrees and stayed there for a bit over an hour now. I put it in the oven a half hour ago at 250. I haven't foiled it yet, maybe that would help. It weighed a bit over 10 lbs when I started. Any ideas?

    Bacon Wrapped Chicken Thigh help!

I then spread a little cream cheese on them, wrapped them in bacon and cooked them over apple wood for 2 hours and they were extremely tender and delicious. Eager...

    First Pork Shoulder

    Thanks SmokinHusker and Pit 4 Brains (love that name by the way!) Here's a pic of what came out of the smoker. I've seen prettier pictures on this site but it was very tender and had an awesome flavor. I believe I had it in foil for about 2 hours in the smoker and about 3 hours in the cooler. If...

    First Pork Shoulder

    I attempted my very first pork shoulder last weekend and I thought it turned out great. I asked JJ for some advice and he gave me a link to Meowy's tips on how to do it and even threw in some recipes for some great finishing sauces (that were delicious by the way!). I smoked it at about 230 for...
