Not technically 'new', but I'm back :D
I ran it for about 2 hours until it stopped smoking out the contaminants, and then threw some wood chips in for an hour before the brisket. Brisket has gotten me 3x so far. Always dry and whatnot. I"m gonna take a new approach next time, as well as get the meat from somewhere that doesn't slice... -
Not technically 'new', but I'm back :D
This summer I joined this forum when I bought a brinkmann electric smoker. Loved that thing, had a great time learning to smoke until it died on me after the 5th-ish time using it. I dawdled around for a while, decided not to get another smoker since I'm in college and didn't have the money... -

Do you know how much they are? I can't afford $400 for a smoker ;( I was soo excited to see someone selling one for $200 in my hometown, but I'm not surprised it's already sold.- elohel

4th of July Disaster
I recently purchased one of those $70ish Brinkmann electric smokers. I got it on Father's day and used it about 3 times with success (mostly) before the 4th. A week before the 4th, I decided to try a brisket. It was my first major disaster, turned out extremely dry and took foreverrrrr to cook...- elohel

Favorite bbq rub?
Now that I'm thinking about it, perhaps I will just do the same brown sugar/paprika rub on the chicken that I do on the ribs. If the flavor is as great as people say it is from that rub (Jeff's rub), but I can't really complain if they both taste great, can I? Thanks for the advice, fellas. -
Favorite bbq rub?
Yeah I could, but I don't really want to experiment tomorrow in front of 25 ppl :D That and I'm not very good at knowing what works well with what, what I should change, etc. I might just go back to the standard paprika one I have, it's not bad, just was hoping for something with a little more bite. -
Favorite bbq rub?
I'm in the process of brining a few whole chickens in just a simple sugar/salt brine. I've smoked a few birds now and I think I've got the smoke/wood/brine down pretty well. THe only thing that keeps throwing me for a loop is the rub. I want something that has a lot of flavor to it. My first... -
why do ribs look burnt?
Probably just has a sugary rub / sauce on it. The sugar 'burns' easily, giving a charred look, but often doesn't taste charred (unless it really does get burned) -
Best way to preserve cooked ribs?
I'll be smoking a few racks (4) of st. louis style ribs tomorrow. I plan on doing the 3-2-1 method, but I'm thinking it'll be best to do them early in the morning so that I have room in my smoker for the birds I'm doing later. What I'm wondering is, what's the best way to keep them warm (or... -
How to coordinate a mass cook-out
Well, I'm not sure if this falls under a 'mass cook-out", haha, but I'm a newb to this stuff and any help would be appreciated. I bought one of those cheap electric (yeah, I know!) vertical Brinkmann smokers on a whim a few weeks ago as I've been interested in smoking for a long time. First...- elohel
