    A-MAZE-IN-PELLET-SMOKERS

    Actually the JD Charcoal pellets are made from the same wood that the barrels are made from, just not the barrels themselves. They burn down unused barrel staves to charcoal, then filter the whiskey through it. Then make the pellets once the charcoal is spent

    Trees to smoker fuel

    To Marinate it or Not Marinate, this is my question :)

    I've never marinated Ribs. Rub it, cook it, sauce it, cook a little more, eat it. Search the 3-2-1 method here on the forums for ribs, great stuff!!!
