    First rack of ribs in my life!!! Honey Mustard Ribs!!!

    Too add to what ever one else said, I immediately noticed how spare your rub was, I could still see most of the meat.  I usually prep my ribs a couple hours before I put them in the smoker, by brushing on mustard and enough rub to completely cover the meat both sides, cover and put back in frig...

    Chargriller chimney

    OK I guess once this Chargriller rust my next one will be a weber, thanks guys.  Does Weber make a bottom dump, because the only reason I got this one is the bottom dump feature, tired of all the ash flying around trying to dump it into my firebox, it's a little tight...lol...without some long...

    Chargriller chimney

    Picked up a new chargiller bottom dump chimney and was wondering if anyone has tried seasoning a chimney to help prevent rust, seems logical since we season smokers to prevent rust.  Never tried before, wondering if it would  work, getting tired of buying new chimneys every couple years cause...

    Vacuum Sealing

    Just curious if anyone has made extra smoke foods and vacuum sealed them for later where they could be heated up by boiling in the bag.  Did you do the whole rack, or made into individual meals...Seems like a good idea, just wondering if anyone has done this,  how did you go about it.  Thinking...

    Hothands

    Any body tried these Hothands  they keep advertising on TV.  I use the big oven mitts now that go clear up to almost my elbow, they work ok but they're big and bulky, not to mention they get really dirty, hard to clean, so I am looking for something better, that I can grab stuff with and brush...

    Seasoning temps

    10w30 is way to thick, gonna be a hot mess, need to back off to 5w20 at least, thin out the mix some...lol...any cooking oil will do fine.   You have to be careful with high heat in the FB with the highlander, you can (because I did) burn off the paint on the outside of the FB.  But in my case...
