    Beef ribs

    Smiths has had an awesome sale on rib roasts. I cut the ribs off to cut ribeye steaks. I want to smoke the rib section. Will I do these anywhere close to how I would do pork ribs? Any and all info will be helpful.

    First whole brisket

    Just to clarify, after re reading my original question, it may be a little confusing.  I know the flat that I am selling will finish when it finishes.  The question about the flat opposed to the point is referring to the whole brisket only.

    first chuckie

    Looking for some info before starting my first chuckie's.  I regularly do pulled pork, how will the cook time compare?  I am actually going to be doing some pulled pork at the same time. I have 2 pieces of chuck weighing 5.5 lbs.  I plan to use the same method with the beef as the pork.  Smoke...

    Pellet smoker vs wood smoker

    For those that have smoked with both pellet smokers and conventional smokers.  Do you find that you get a more intense smoke flavor from one over the other, if so why? I have only smoked with a treager and I am completely satisfied, although my only comparisons come from restaurants.  I do find...
