    No foil spares.

    Morning all.  So here's the thing.  I'm going to be smoking 6 racks of side ribs (spares not BB) this Sat. on a Primo XL.  I'm thinking 225°.  With 6 racks I don't want to mess around with the foil (that I always do).  Having never done unwrapped ribs I did a Google and found everything from 3...

    diy pid controller

    Damn sorry ITW, I just noticed your post re: the pid controller.  I found if you bring your pit slowly up to the desired temp with the PID set to auto tune and with the fan disconnected it worked out not to bad.  Now I'm having probe temp issues in that my Maveric ET 733 says one temp and the...

    Baby Backs for dinner

    Did 3 racks of baby backs. Did the 3-45-45 method. Not to bad but kinda dry. I'm thinking' 3 hr @ 240/250° might be a bit much?  I think I'll  try Smoking Al's technic next time.

    Beef Bonze.

    Mama asked for bonze for Mom's Day. Did them just like pork ribs. Plated with baked taters, pit beans and slaw. Mama was happy. But I gotta say, for big bold beefy flavour ya can't beat the damned Dino ribs. I kinda like them better than the brisket.  Not much for pics I'm afraid....but I was...

    Brisket...not so good.

    I smoked an 11 lb. brisket Sun.   Rubbed with SPOG.  On the smoker @ 7:00AM. It reached 160° just before noon, and I foiled it with a C of beef broth.  Mistake #1.  I wrapped way to soon & too much broth.  The bark never developed nor did a decent smoke ring.   Now for the weird part.  It never...
