Considering a mod for the Brinkman Vertical Smoker
I have a Brinkman vertical two door smoker and use a veggie wok for my coals. It works pretty good. Before I had just drilled tons of holes in the provided pan, but it didn't work that well. As for how much charcoal, I'm sure it depends on many factors. As I type I have an 8.48 lb brisket in...- vbot

The Easter Bunny Came Through
Here's what the Easter Bunny brought me today. I don't know how big it was because I threw out the wrapper before I could see. I'm guessing 6 or so pounds. I rubbed Brown Sugar, Paprika, Garlic Salt, Onion Powder, Kosher Salt (Thought It Works) and Cracked Black Pepper on it last night. Put it... -

Ever Use Grape Jelly On Ribs?
Okay, I cannot eat another bite, they're pretty good. I tried both, with sauce and without sauce. I prefer without sauce. I used Rudy's sauce. Seems as though sauce masks the real flavor. I can't wait to see what's next in the smoker. This forum rocks!!! Let's see Pittsburgh meet Green... -
Ever Use Grape Jelly On Ribs?
When do you guys apply the sauce, if at all? I like both wet and dry ribs. Thinking about leaving the sauce off and leave it up to the family if they want to add or not. Just heat some up on the stove or something. What do you guys do? -

Ever Use Grape Jelly On Ribs?
I didn't even think about their sauces. I wonder how it would be as a marinade of some sort. Hmmmm Here's a pic after I put some Apple Jelly on them for moisture. About 3 hours in. -
Ever Use Grape Jelly On Ribs?
I gotta go out and get some Apple and Grape jelly. I wonder how they would both be. Many years ago, I think it was Welch's, they had a grape and apple (mixed) squeeze bottle. It was very good. I'm talking early 1980's. Don't think they still have that one. -
Ever Use Grape Jelly On Ribs?
I was told grape jelly is the secret to great tasting ribs. Anyone here ever use it? I've put banana slices on ribs before for grilling. I'm doing/smoking Spare Ribs tomorrow and will use hickory chips and Famous Dave's Rib Rub. Any other suggestions that could produce great ribs? Going to... -

New To Smoking, Please Offer Advice/Tips (Brinkmann Split-Door Smoker) (Charcoal)
Sorry, I meant to say, charcoal is my main fuel. I was just adding chunks as the smoke dissipated. I still need to someday make my own rub. -
New To Smoking, Please Offer Advice/Tips (Brinkmann Split-Door Smoker) (Charcoal)
Here's a pic, sorry I didn't re-size. I'll still do some more mods on the pan and get the wok. I thought about a way to maybe punch larger holes in a plate at work, then breaking (Bending) it or just sticking with getting the wok. I'll have to see how much of a change it makes. This is after... -

New To Smoking, Please Offer Advice/Tips (Brinkmann Split-Door Smoker) (Charcoal)
Okay, this morning (Sunday) I put the brisket on. Been on since a little after 8AM. I really need to put more holes in the coal pan and eventually get a wok. Need more air flow, the ashes do build up quick. At this point it's at about 225 degrees. I've had it in bottom (Fat side) up. Been...
