    Smoking with coca cola

    I used Dr Pepper on Pork Butt over the winter.  It wasn't smoked, it was in the oven.  But it was damn tasty. Having said that, I guess you could mop, or use it in the foil stage for moisture and to add another flavor.

    New to Smoking, need ideas for a Work BBQ

    Pork or brisket could both likely be done in that time frame.  Although I typically use a lower heat and thus it takes longer.

    Rec-Tec or Louisiana Grill?

    Cook times will be the same.  Pellet and propane are likely similar in the sense that you will get a consistent temp start to finish without any tinkering.  With wood or charcoal you need to monitor temps and add fuel as needed.  Otherwise, it's all about time and temp, and the type of fuel...

    REC TEC crazy fast shipping!!

    Must have place your order at just the right time.  Mine sat "waiting to ship" for 10 days, and then "awaiting pickup" for 2 days.  I then received it 2 days later.

    Rec Tec Slow Cook Times

    My first test, during the curing process, was to watch and compare temps.  The temp probe for the controller is at the left edge of the smoker.  I placed my secondary temp probe in the center of the grill at the rear.  I've noticed that the higher the temp, the more difference there is between...

    Rec-Tec or Louisiana Grill?

    I love mine.  With all the weather lately, I've only been able to use it twice.  Plan on doing a brisket on Sunday.

    Temp control & coals...

    I agree, the smoker needs to be fairly air tight.  After that, you adjust your vents to control burn/heat.  For the most part, charcoal/coals are just a heat source.  Smoke will come from wood/wood chips and are simply added to the heat source.  How long the heat source will last can vary based...

    new smoker

    And just to clarify, we are talking about wet wood chips/pieces meant for smoking, not actual wet wood left sitting outside that hasn't cured yet.  There is a huge difference.

    Using a Rub for the First Time

    Personal preference.  Using something like mustard adds another layer of flavor.  But it's not needed.  The dampness of the meat of hold the rub.  I've only ever used rub on bare meat. I would start without adding anything else.  Next time, if you want to add more/different flavor, then try...

    Rec Tec pellets

    I've been happy with their pellets as well.  But I've not used any other brands yet to compare.

    Pellet questions

    I just switched to a pellet smoker myself, and there is a difference in smoke.  It's a much more subtle flavor.  Also, the amount of smoke varies by temp, at least in mine.  The lower the heat, the more smoke.  If you like a stronger smoke flavor, consider using a smoke tube.

    Getting Ready to Pull Trigger on $1000 pellet Grill. Any last minute advice.

    I just purchased a Rec-Tec myself.  I've only had a chance to use it twice so far.  But I've been pretty happy with it.  Much easier then trying to maintain temps with charcoal. Have someone handy to assist with moving it about and getting it assembled as it is quite heavy.

    Using bourbon (or any liquid) in a dry rub?

    Tried rubbing the meat with bourbon (or any other liquid), and then applying the rub?

    Beef Short Ribs

    Beef usually don't need much.  Salt and pepper, maybe a little garlic salt. Those look good.
