    rewarming spareribs

    Would a corningware dish work just as well? Or should it definatel be foil? Do you place the foil in the crockpot or just the ribs?

    Big Block Temp Variance

    It's hard to fail on ribs using the 3-2-1 or 2-2-1 method. With these temp variances, you will just need to adjust the final 1 hour prbably...

    rewarming spareribs

    Yesterday I smoked 3 racks of spares to bring to work tomorrow for a pot luck luncheon. I did St Louis style and only used Jeffs Rub on them. After they cooled, I cut into individual ribs and thought I would rewarm them in a crockpot for lunch. Has anyone used a crockpot for rewarming ribs...

    "MEDIUM" Spare ribs

    A local store has "Medium Spare Ribs" on sale for 1.38/lb. What would them mean by "medium" spare ribs? We are having a pot luck lunch next week at work and I was thinking about getting some to take to the luncheon. But I have never seen the word "medium" used in from of spare ribs before. I...

    Cleaning Question

    I have a question along these lines of cleaning... I seem to have a good buildup of creosote on the bottom of my water pan. It is fairly hard like tar. Is there a good way to remove that, or should I even worry about it?

    Well done brisket

    The wife is thawing out a brisket that I had smoked some time ago. On it she had written "well done brisket". Now assuming this may translate to "dry brisket", what might my options be to "juice it up" to serve to family and friends on Christmas eve? I plan on slicing it for sandwiches. Thanks!

    How many ribs can I fit in a GOSM Big Block

    If it were me, I would probably swap the top with the bottom at foil time only. If 4 shelves, I would swap 1 to 4 and 2 to 3, if 5 shelves I wouldn't move 3 and do 1 to 5 and 2 to 4.

    How often do you add more chips/chunks?

    I own the GOSM Big Block and use fairly large chunks (fist size) of wood. I have noticed that the smoke gets heavier just prior to it burning out so I usually will replace a chunk at that time, leaving the old chunk in the cast iron box if there is room or trying to break the old chunk up into...

    How many ribs can I fit in a GOSM Big Block

    Laying down flat, you should be able to fit 3 slabs per shelf in your big block. That would allow cooking 12 at a time, but would probably need to rotate shelves for even cooking. If using a rib rack or skewers, you would be eliminating shelves because you would need to have more space up and...

    low low temp in big block.

    Well, what I ended up doing was changing to a spare tank I had. I always keep a spare on hand. The original tank was nearly full, but after making the switch I jumped right up to 225 - 227. That's about the best I can do on a cold Kansas day of 40*. So maybe it was the connection or the...

    Sand & Water

    For those of you who use sand in your water pan, do you also add water to the sand? If you do, just enough to moisten it or do you make it kind of soupy. Also, do you line your water pan with foil prior to putting sand in it? TIA! MoFo

    bad burner GOSM need help

    This happened to me once with my big block. I discovered a spider had build a web inside the tube going to the burner and I guess the gas was overflowing back out the tube. Be sure to check that out first before doing anything else. I just blew mine out with air and it fixed the problem.
