    First Spatchcock Chicken

    My wife, who likes to poke fun at me for taking pictures of supper, joked that I should put a dress on it for the picture. Thanks! Thanks, b-one...she turned out pretty good!

    Maverick ET-733 thread

    Dennis...one of the probes is long and pointed for piercing the meat. The other is shorter and rounded off on the end. It's the "chamber" probe for measuring the temp of the smoke chamber. Hope that answers your question! By the way, I have used both probes for both jobs...its just not as easy...

    Spatchcock Chicken or Not

    How necessary is the brine with spatched chickens, fellas? If I just rub a bird down and throw her on the smoke with no brine, will it still be pretty juicy?

    Help with 2-2-1 baby backs

    Just like Richie said...riding the clock will get you where you wanna be. When smoking baby backs, it is very difficult to get an accurate temp tearing because ALL of the meat is generally too close to a bone. I've never had a bad day with ribs on 2-2-1.
