    New to the forum

    Hey CT welcome. This forum is very helpful. I use a Silver Smoker as well. I never noticed unevern heat problems with mine. I actually have noticed that mine will hold perfectly around 225-250 for the first 2 or so hours of the smoke. The problem with mine is when I hit that say, 3 hour mark...

    Question about sauces

    Yes, first I simmer the night before for one hour or until it is nice and thick. I then let it set up in the fridge overnight. I will take it out of the fridge when I start to smoke and about anywhere between an hour or two into the smoke I will put it on the grill with the ribs. I have a char...

    Question about sauces

    I aimed to get the ribs on at no later than 11am.....I got them on at 1pm...the outside temp was 94 degrees at this point. The smoker held steady at 230 degrees with no problems, I am assuming because of the heat outside. By 4pm the outside temp is 98 degrees and it feels like you can not...

    Question about sauces

    Tomorrow the temps will be pushing 100 degrees. Will this affect anything as far as temps on the grill? Obviously with temps that high it typically means very little to no wind at all which is good, but I am curious if this will do anything to the temps on the grill at all?

    Question about sauces

    Sounds awesome Eric. Sweet baby rays is an awesome sauce by itself too, especially for burgers thrown in for the family and kids and all. I am definitely doing St. Louis style on Sunday and I am gonna go with some of your ingredients, but pull the apple juice and use that for the spray and...

    Question about sauces

    I like to work with sweet baby rays bbq sauce myself. Beings I like my sauces on the sweeter side, it has more of a sweet flavor and less of that smoky flavor that some sauces have. I don't understand why people use a smokier sauce when smoking things, it kind of defeats the purpose of the...

    Question about sauces

    There is absolutely nothing wrong with modifying store bought sauce. I have done mustard on the ribs to hold the rub, but never a mustard sauce. That sounds interesting.

    BBQ Competitions

    I totally agree, you definitely need a few cold ones to help pass the time. The Diamond State competition is in Dover at the monster mile (Dover Speedway) in October. I wanted to make it last year, but I had to work. Everyone has hooked me up nicely on here with all types of competitions and...
