    I am cooking for around 15 people thursday and have a few questions: 1. I have 3 racks of baby backs and 2 shoulders(total of 14 pounds) plus sides, do you think this will be enough? Or should I only do 1 shoulder and get more ribs? I figure 3 or 4 ribs each plus sammie and sides should fill...

    High or Low

    Where do you get the best results in a upright smoker? It seems to me if you put the meat low it is closer to the water pan and would stay more moist, but if you put it higher in the smoker the heat and smoke would be better there since heat rises. Just looking for different thoughts on that.

    Looking for a "big boy smoker"

    I like your set up. Is it to big to use for just me and my wife? Also how well does the warmer work...can you smoke/bake in it or is it just a warmer, and does it have seperate temp control?

    2nd Pulled Pork

    It was in a Sam's club two pack with a total of 15# so i guess this one is about 7 1/2#. Ive had my smoker at 225 all day, do you think I should turn it up. BTW it's kinda windy here today so that might have something to do with it. Want to race! (haha) I'm about to the point of finding...

    2nd Pulled Pork

    I'm doing my first pulled pork today also. Man, mines been at 160 deg for 3 years now, I don't think it will ever get to 165 so I can wrap it. Put it in at 7:45 a.m., its now 3:25. BTW I did my first fatty today and man that might be the best thing in the history of the world.

    Time Question?

    Thats a great link thanks. Im doing 6 racks of ribs and 12 chicken quarters monday. My smoker isnt big enough to do it all at the same time so would i be better off to do the ribs or the chicken first? Which one will warm up with the best results? This is my first smoke for a crowd and I would...

    Baby Back Ribs this AM

    gadawgsr1 I just bought the same smoker you have and i'm doing my first ribs as we speak. I had about the same difference on my thermometers. The one on the unit showed 225 and the one inside showed 280. Not sure which one is true so i split the difference. Hope it worked.

    New smoker from Tn

    She loves it when i cook outside, less for her to do inside. didnt think about the new cologne. Do you think we could bottle that and sell it? Might be a great side job.
