Welcome SKander007! A lot of us here have been able to bring our A-game to the smoker due to all the advice and quick help of others. We look forward to many Qview from you and if you don't have pictures, well...It never happened.
What part of MN are you from? I grew up in Buffalo-Wright county
If you are cleaning the rust off I would start with a hand grinder but be careful not to stay in one spot too long and take off too much metal. If you have access to a sand blaster it would probably be a quicker and smoother way to go.
Take a high temp paint like you said after you clean it up...
I don't think it matters either. I tend to put the fat cap up so as it renders down it will drizzle over the meat and keep it moist. Plus the meat on the bottom can sit in the juices which will help keep it moist. Either way you will be fine. Try it both ways and see what you like.
Good Luck.
Started last night with a 13lb moster packer brisket. I seperated the flat and the point so it would fit in my MES. Rubbed it with Bilbo's slather,rub and mop. 5 o'clock this moring it went in the MES and back to bed I went. Got up to feed it some more chips. I do have to say that this smoke...
Keep letting them go. You're fine. Every now and then I think the same thing. I usually think my probe isn't in far enough, so I grab a second one and double check.
Happy Birthday! And Oh Man those Ribs look fantastic!!!!!
The bark on those things along with the smoke ring would make a blind man cry. Looking forward to more Qview from you!!!!!!
What a great compliment! I bet you won't barely be able to say that you're going to smoke something and he will be at your house!
Keep up the good work.
Here is the finished product! Very Tasty. Some parts were a bit dry, and others were vey moist. I used the 3-2-1 method and I will probably go with the 2-2-1 next time. Cooked them at 225-230 on apple wood.
