    My First Smoked Ribs

    The 3-2-1 method refers to a method of cooking ribs that involves 3 hours on the grate getting smoke, 2 hours wrapped in foil with a sauce or juice while they cook, and 1 more hour out of the foil back on the grate. During the 1 hour phase is when people usually glaze or sauce the ribs. I've...

    First Smoke! Spare Ribs

    Looks awesome! The one time I did ribs I glazed with sauce every 15 minutes for the last hour of the 3-2-1 method. Also I didn't spray with apple juice. I just let them smoke as is with mustard and rub and then foiled them. Hope that helps!

    ECB temperature woes

    So after running the boiling water test,I found that my temp gage on my smoker runs 75 degrees too hot. That explains a little bit. I'm hoping in the next couple of weeks to order myself a maverick to help out and hopefully get some accurate readings. Again, thanks for your input and advice fellas

    Question about Prepping in Advance

    Hey Sqwib, I thought I read somewhere (maybe in one of Jeff's newsletters?) that anything after 140, the smoke stops penetrating the meat so it would be a waste of wood to go any more than that on a charcoal snoker? It is possible that I read the article incorrectly so I'm glad you clarified :)

    Question about Prepping in Advance

    For those of who saw this and are wondering, I did try the partial cook method with a picnic roast and had excellent results. Some disclaimers though...I did make an honest attempt to smoke through the night but with temps outside in the 30's, my little ECB had a hard time keeping warm and I had...

    First attempt at spare ribs

    Thanks guys! I've never had ribs that tender before so this was a real treat. JJ, that foiling juice mixed up KC Style tasted better than every bottle of store bought sauce I've ever tasted man. You got yourself quite a gem there.

    ECB temperature woes

    Thanks for the input guys. I do have a probe for the meat, but I like the idea of a 2 for 1 probe that does the meat and pit in one. That's something I might consider. Does anyone else usually have issues with temp spikes while using the minion method? Jim- The temp gage did read 500, but...

    ECB temperature woes

    I know there's probably a million threads about this topic but, I think there's an issue with my temp gage and how accurate it is. My smoker is a modded ECB (mounted a generic Home Depot temp gage and drilled holes in charcoal pan for better air flow) and for some reason my smoker gets way too...

    First attempt at spare ribs

    So after doing some reading, I decided to try my hand at some spare ribs. I got lucky and my local grocery store sells them pre trimmed with the tips in the package. Pretty neat if you ask me and I also got my little snack while cooking. Enough chat, here's some qview. Rubbed and ready for the...
