    Whole Shoulders With Skin On

    The skin got crunchy and drew up to where I was able to peel it off in almost one sheet. The dogs are going to love it. I did sample a piece of meat and it is tasting awesome.

    Whole Shoulders With Skin On

    I cut skin off one and left on the other since I didn't know. Figured I had a 50/50 shot at being right. IOnly reason I left skin on is because I know they do that when the cook a whole pig on a pit. Internal temp is still only 90 degrees, should I pull it and cut it off or just let it ride?

    Whole Shoulders With Skin On

    I have received two whole shoulders with the skin on. I normally only do brisket or butts. Any suggestions? I have a UDS. Thanks

    New & Improved UDS

    The smoke is from the initial burn in not from the cook. Using the vent from the Masterbuilt made the heat more controllable than the home made vents on the last one, it seals tighter to choke it down low.

    New & Improved UDS

    A few weeks ago I built my first UDS. I liked they way it cooked and its capacity much more than any store bought smoker I've had. Now that I had used it for a few weeks I set out to build a better one. I scavenged vents and handles from my Masterbuilt Pro that had rotted on the bottom and this...

    UDS Thermometer Placement

    I'm about to build another UDS and I was wondering if there is anything wrong with placing the thermometer in the lid? I put it  the side about halfway up on the last one and the probe gets in the way when placing or removing grates. Not a huge deal but it would be easier if its not in the way...

    3-2-1 method

    I added apple juice, a little white vinegar and some brown sugar. I also forgot to mention it was my first time using rib racks and it was the bottom edge that got burnt but either way everything was overcooked. I'll check in to these things. Thanks for the suggestions

    3-2-1 method

    I had never done spare ribs before so I decided to try the 3-2-1 method. When I unwrapped the ribs after just short of 2 hours I found the edges burnt badly. They were pretty thick slabs and I kept the smoker at 225-235. What wasn't burnt was definitely over cooked. Where did I go wrong?
