    Dino ribs, tips please

    SPOG and let the fat do its thing. Smoke'em until done and enjoy. They've been too expensive around here lately. Waiting for a good reason to splurge.

    Slaw style

    Seems to be a love it or hate it with coleslaw. I love chopped or shredded with a mayo based dressing, and always make it for pulled pork sandwiches.

    Tri-Tip with Melting Potatoes.

    You're from CA, you know that Trip is cut too thick. OP has an amazing cook on it though and is perfectly done, but thinner slices will enhance the experience.

    Pork shoulder Boston roast bone in. Pulled pork worthy?

    This right here. And if you are cooking on an offset as you mentioned in your other thread, do as many as you can reasonably cook as it can be costly to run the smoker. Pull and vacuum seal the meat then freeze for whatever you want later. You can do this with chickens 🐔 as well, it freezes...

    Has Anyone used western brand wood splits ?

    I do the exact same thing, and have access to property with endless oak trees. I buy their hickory as we don't have that. I think it's good wood and can get a few cooks out of the bag, or mix it in with my oak. @Firemedic76 if you are getting fruit woods from your father in law, grab some of the...

    Costco brisket shocker

    Hhhhmmmm, wonder why.... it's transitory though. If you you don't buy beef, chicken, or pork there is no real effect on food (chief economic advisor for the current administration).

    Bad smoke day WSM

    What was the bad taste? That should tell you the issue. Nothing wrong with high temps on a butt. I cook them around 275 and get them same exterior, nothing but deliciousness.

    Ace Hardware

    Yeah the Ace here in town and the one 8 miles up I-80 have amazing selection of everything Q as you mention. The one up the road usually has my favorite lump charcoal - kamado Joe's big block - they sell out of it often, and I can't find it anywhere else.

    First Catering Job

    That is a lot of food (meat and sides) for 15 people. You may want to talk to the person about paring down the menu which will help with pricing for both of you. As to what to charge, I've always heard the 3x principle - would be closer to $600 range based on what you posted. I see you are...

    Ribs and Ruuners

    Everyone serving like their dish is the only thing being eaten 🤣 Factor in his side plus all the other sides and you've got enough for 60 people. With all you said is being served, you're fine with 12 quarters and 6 racks and you'll still have a bunch of leftovers. If you want a little extra...

    Ribs in short time

    In my experience, if you are looking for fall off the bone you can get that running at 275° for 2hrs unwrapped, then wrap for 1.5hrs and run at 300°. If you want complete fob go for two hours wrapped. I don't much care for it but a lot of guests like it. There is still some texture this way, not...
