New smoker
Amen to that, Gary! But folks need to worry less about the tool than their technique. I do everything possible to make my grill and smoker look good. None of that matters if the food sucks! lol -
New Smoker... same old temperature question
Welcome to the group, Jeeper! I bought an inexpensive digital meat thermometer a couple of years ago. It has a probe cable that's meant to be in oven temperatures up to 500°F. I've used it mostly on my smoker and simply route the cable through the bottom of the main door. I really need to...- barnold

PID Box and Location
I've been getting all the parts together for a PID controlled blower to handle the damper function on my OK Joe Longhorn. The controller and all components are working fine on my shop bench as of today. I need to fabricate the interface to the side of the firebox tomorrow, then I'll be ready...- barnold

Myron's Rub
I watch BBQ Pitmasters a lot. Many of the competitors use commercial rubs as their base, then add to them as they see fit. I've been using Bad Byron's Butt Rub for pork ribs and butts and we find it quite nice. It's got a bit of heat that is a little more than my wife likes, but it sweetens...- barnold

St. Louis ribs help
Sounds great! You're making me mighty hungry! During the foil period, I've done as you described and it works real good. The last rib smoke I did two weeks ago, I used turbinado sugar as the sweet layer and really liked it. I also did the drizzle with butter and added a bit of apple juice. ... -

St. Louis ribs help
The things mentioned here point to two camps: (1)To foil or not to foil; (2)To mop or not to mop. From what I've seen on competitions, it's almost a sin to mop pork spare ribs, whereas foiling is almost universal. On the other hand, a lot of folks mop beef brisket, chicken, etc. Another thing...
