    Rib Rack=Dry Ribs???

    Thanks for the reply. Went with my tale of woe to another forum and the overwhelming opinion was the rib rack had nothing whatsoever to do with the Baby Back disaster. Dang it.......was really hoping I could blame it on something other than cook failure.. I`m still set to run some spares into...

    Rib Rack=Dry Ribs???

    Huh...... All those views and NO  comments, questions, or answers...... Could I have joined a group of voyeurs? A group of lurkers? A group of overly shy and suffering severe Agoraphobia?  People???????

    Rib Rack=Dry Ribs???

    After a really good smoke on some spare ribs, the BOSS brought home some baby backs. So I`m really jazzed. Go forth and smoke says she. No problem, I got this says me. Because of the limited grill space, I`ll use a Rib Rack I`m thinking. Long sad story short..they came out dry. She was not...

    EECB--Wattage=Smoke

    This will end this dead horse thread. I ended up TOTALLY  cleaning out the smoker. It had a nice looking, shiny black layer of creosote covering all of the inside. If I let it stay, I think it would taint everything I put in there???? Would it????? AnyHooooooo.... Sprayed the innards with...

    spare ribs

    I took that "flap", which I think is called the SKIRT?, and cut it off my spares. I took it and rubbed it, rolled it up, and stuck a toothpick in to hold it together. On one of the steps in the 2-2-1 method it looked done, so I pulled it off. Can`t really recall how long it had been on...

    How did you come up with your screen name?

    Big Robin Williams fan, so that probably had something to do with it.

    Spatchcock or Beer Can????

    Going for a really good whole chicken smoke and thought I`d run it by you folk. Never done either way and I`m sure each way has it`s merits, but which gives me the best chance at a home run-Spatchcock or Beer Can???? Ball park time @ 220-250?? I`ve done thighs with apple wood and they were...

    Spare Rib Sucess

    Woooo Hoooooooo, First really good smoke. Used the 2-2-1 method and it turned out just as they all said it would. My Elecrtic ECB did it`s thing and did it quite well. The only thing I would want to change is the very outside layer was on the dry side and you couldn`t get a nice clean bite...

    Success at Last

    After a somewhat rocky start, my first successful spare rib smoke... Did the 2-2-1 method and it worked like a champ. Not sure I would change anything, except maybe keeping a better eye on the water pan, since it was empty at the end. Most and full of flavor. Just wish I didn`t have to...

    EECB--Wattage=Smoke

     Unfortunately,  while I saved the meat from the FIRE, it ended up being 2 steps from inedible. The amount of smoke generated reached a point where it stopped imparting good and tasty and became bitter and-according to Da Boss-HORRIBLE TASTING..... After munching down some myself, trying to...

    All rubbed down and ready for the smoker!

    Nice little niche you`ve carved out for your smoking area. Guessing available space is a premium where you are. On the venting, I`m in no rush..Probably over-think it and end up doing something rash, only to find the "perfect" solution a day or so after.. I suppose you could fabricate an...

    All rubbed down and ready for the smoker!

    Bummer.... Know what you are up against. The number of times I seem to have made things worse while on my way success are legion. I`d like to see how you do the vents, since I`m considering adding the rope gasket to mine. Right now I`m running a bunch of different venting contraptions thru...
