Thanks! The wife and kids approved. Happy wife, happy life!

Just pulled them and the look great! Tender and moist, just enough to hold on to the bone without being literally "fall off the bone" tender. Well worth the wait! Now I'm going to bed!

Thanks! I just finished unwrapping them, back on the grill and now one more hour or so to go.

Threw a Tri-tip in new Treager last night, smoked for first 3 hours, then turned it up to 275°, Pulled and wrapped at 145° IT and Let rest for 30 mins. Perfect medium rare throughout.

Just put some ribs on my new pellet grill, gonna try the infamous 3-2-1 method. I'll update with some Q-View throughout the process.

Took advantage of low priced Johnsonville Brats from Costco (4.97 per 3 pack) I stocked up! I've been reading about smoked brats for awhile and figured since I had the coals burning for burgers, I couldn't let the heat go to waste! They just hit 150° after 2 hours so it won't be much longer! I'm...

Will do, thanks for the tip!

Thanks everyone! It sure boosted my confidence on trying new cuts of meat! The wife definitely wants me to make them again. I'll be sure to do 2 racks next time after some mods to help keep the heat up in the cooking chamber. May even try my own rub!

Well the ribs turned out amazing!It didn't go as planned but the end result was definitely something worth writing home about! Here's the link to the thread! (With Q-View) http://www.smokingmeatforums.com/t/230150/first-attempt-at-ribs#post_1437370

I finally took the leap and tried out some ribs. I bought a pack of pre dry rubbed from the store and it turned out delicious! I started off with the intention of smoking them start to finish but couldn't seem to get my new OSFB above 180°. I ended up smoking them for an hour with hickory at...

I've spent hours browsing the forums. I just finished a $2.00 mod on mine getting it ready for some ribs! Added a heat shield and extended the exhaust down to the cooking grate as well using an aluminum roasting pan. I'll add some q view later. We are up north in Salem. I love the are down...

Thanks for the info guys, I do intend to get a pair of good thermometers for each side as well as a wireless internal temp thermometer. I just got back from picking blueberries at a local farm that does apples as well and they said I can all the free wood I want come pruning season! I...

 I've had the chance to cure and break in my new off set smoker last week with minor success. The first attempt was a "Mortons" Tri-Tip cut from Costco (where I work) that we've had in the past and have always thought they were pretty darn good. However in the smoker at around 200-225 for 6...

Thank you for this! I think you answered my question as to why my first 2 attempts were a bust on my new charbroil horizontal off set smoker.
