    Rainy Day Ribs

    Alelover, that looks like a great meal, if the MIL did not like it she needs to see a psychiatrist!  The ribs and chicken look great!, we are not a big spicy bunch either but like a good rub that enhances the meat flavor.  Keep up the good work! Your SMF Friend, Barry

    3-2-1 method - What are some alternatives to using apple juice as the liquid?

    hkeiner, I have used several things on my ribs but when apple juice is not on hand, (I use apple juice 2/3 and 1/3 apple cider vinegar to spritz when foiling I thin the BBQ sauce I am using with the spritz).  When I don't have any apple juice I have used Pepsi Cola to thin down my BBQ sauce...

    Smoked my first meat for the first time yesterday!!!

    Chris, If you have gone over Jeff's e-course you are definitely on the right track.  I have done a lot of ribs in my time and the best wood I have found, and the wood my folks all seem to like the best is Hickory, it gives a good familiar flavor to the ribs and is in my opinion the best meat...

    Any other Brine?

    Al, according to my brother, pickling salt is the same as table salt, he said he was not sure about Kosher salt but that some Kosher salt has less Sodium in it but it depends on the brand. He said that Sodium is the big thing with your blood pressure and if you can lower the sodium you achieve...

    Lubbock, I was just on the phone with my brother who helps me smoke and is a pharmacist in charge for the CVS Pharmacies, Inc., I told him I had just read your post but had no idea what to tell you.  He said to ask you if your doctor had forbidden all salt or had he placed you on a low Sodium...

    Digital Thermometers Necessary?

    Onoku, I use one Maverick ET-73, the nice thing about it is it has two probes that measure different things and is also a remote so you will not be tied down to the smoker every minute during a smoke.  One probe you hang inside your cooking chamber to monitor the cooking chamber temperature...

    Chuckie Vs Eye of Round Question

    Bill, I have to agree with Ross, the eye of round is a very lean piece of meat where as most chucky's are well marbled with fat throughout the piece of meat, as the chucky cooks the fat breaks down and leaves the meat very tender and juicy.  The eye of round on the other hand does not have much...
