    OMG!!!!  That is a nice rig.  I'm gonna work on something.  That spicy brown mustard before a rub sounded good.

    Second Pulled Pork

    OMG, I thought I could actually smell it.  Must be some kind of psychological trigger mechanism... or Pavlov was correct!

    First time using my smoker....2 racks of ribs (Q-view)

    Looks good!!! I recently bought a vertical smoker and one of the reasons I didn't go with Brinkmann was because they had magnetic doors.  The thing was that the doors on the display model would not shut and stay secure.  I guess it was just some dumb kid who didn't care put it together.  The...

    Butts and Ribs "Play by Play" Q-veiw

    Those look exceptional.  I bet the party goes off without a hitch.  I think your 8:20 post reflected the ribs absorbing alot of the heat.  Your wife's friends and family are going to be pleasantly surprised that it's not going to be the old burgers and dogs.

    CALIFORNIA

    Hello all.  I am new to SMF.com and have a general question.  I have heard in news reports that the state of California is banning outside fire pits and fire places as well as preventing the installation of fireplaces in new homes under construction.  My question is, is this true and does this...

    I screwed something up....badly.

    I will have to agree with the others.  You are probably tasting smoke from the coal and not from the wood.  The first thing that I noticed in your post is that you left the door open and the pipe open.  This will give a lot of oxygen to the fire.  Actually, too much.  you want to close the door...

    Gonna give ribs ONE MORE TRY then i'm giving up... end up with shoe leather every time! :(

    Pulling off the membrane lets the smoke/spice/water permeate the ribs.  Also, some people think that it can keep the meat from getting as tender as possible or that it will taste kind of sinewy after all the membrane is like a tendon.

    Cooking a wild hog--Help

    Also, wild hog, or boar, can be a little gamey.  You might want to put some good rub on it that can mellow the flavor.  Something with a lot of onion and garlic would do good.  Or even som fresh onion and garlic cloves tucked in the meat.  Also, I would try cutting it in 1/2 and placing each on...

    Gonna give ribs ONE MORE TRY then i'm giving up... end up with shoe leather every time! :(

    Congratulations, my ribs and chicken turned out pretty good too.  The ribs, lets just say the meat was tender, well smoked/seasoned and the meat would pull off of the bone completely and almost turn into pulled pork in your hand.  The chicken also fell apart.  I've got some pictures though...

    Gonna give ribs ONE MORE TRY then i'm giving up... end up with shoe leather every time! :(

    You know all of the ribs joints around here all state that they smoke their ribs for 4 hours.  Tomorrow I am gonna be smoking two racks of baby back ribs and a whole chicken.  I was gonna put some rub on them tonight and start them tomorrow around 11 or 12.  I'll be checking on them and the...

    45 racks of spare ribs for tomorrow

    It sounds to me, although I am late, that he plans on just grilling them.  It can be done, but the meat won't be as tender.  He can try wraping them in foil for the first hour and then transfering them to a cooler side of the grill for a while turning often. Cole

    Smokin a turkey

    I am impressed.  You don't normally see a stuffed turkey smoked.  Did the smoke flavor the stuffing much? Cole

    I think the coffee actually acts as a tenderizer on the meat.
