Where is the smoke ring?
Yeh, Let me clarify first. I cooked these ribs on an electric smoker = no smoke ring. I cooked last week (Brisket and Ribs) on a charcoal chargriller. The smoke was a nice thin blue smoke, since I did the 3-2-1 I only needed the smoke on the electric smoker for the first 3 hours. The...- baker2828

I just bought a gourmet electric Brinkman smoker just because I wanted to try it out. I have the little red charcoal Brinkman, and a Chargriller wsfb, but I really needed for personal satisfaction an electric one.

What's your occupation?
I used to program IBM Mainframe Assembler but now I am involved in Business Analyst which concentrates on the process more than the actual application. Strange occupation for me as I am about as hillbilly as it gets. My father and Grand pappy were both union pipefitters but I didn't want to be...- baker2828

Putting my recent modifications to the test
Still working on the software, but checked the grill and closest to the firebox I am a consistent 230 and by my far end I am 205. I would like it to be a bit hotter but that could be the fire or a fact that I don't have enough wood in the smoker but 25 degrees I will take from front to back.- baker2828

First Smoke with the Forum
I used a half stick of butter, then hillbilly measured (meaning I didn't measure) what I liked for me it was about a TBSP of onion powder, garlic powder, kosher/sea salt, cayenne, cumin, red hot chili flakes and 2 of worsterchire. I modded a recipe that was already on the site. -

She is my buddy, she knows that PIG bones she can eat. Hates to see me smoke chicken because she knows its all for not. Ever seen a dog debarker? Most people say take the bark off of the wood you are smoking with. I got some wood from a buddy and within half hour look at what she done. She...
