When I used to work at Ace Hardware in college there was the white stuff that was like 89 cents a roll (for water and air fittings), and yellow tape that was like $4.99 for a roll. Same width, but made for gas fittings. I'd probably err on the side of caution. If they make special stuff for gas...
I've done my last few sets of ribs 3-1-1, and 3.5-1.5-1.5. I think the longer before foil provides more bark, if that's what you like. Less time in the foil=less mushy (they kinda steam in there)...and if you put them in the foil for two hours, and can get them out without falling apart, you...
I think the high heat probably did it. Low and slow is the key. The resting of the meat is a good thing to do, but usually when I pull them off the smoker to let them rest they're already fallin' apart on their own. Did you do any spritzing of the meat with juice, etc?
Rule of thumb with cook...
I'lll be making a big pan of Dutch's bean on tuesday to take to a friends house warming party. Hopefully we woun't gas ourselves out of the new house, or cause any undue peeling of wallpaper. They're a hit everytime I make them.
Don't let a little rain stop you ...smoking in the rain is just a stone on the path to smoking rightousness, Dude! (Sorry got a little to Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure there )
I agree with Terry...he's got the solution to all your smoking woes!
Are you using the themo on the door as a gauge, or a termo inside, say on a rack? You will surely get a higher reading from one inside the box.
Totally normal, most of my butts have taken right around 12-14 hours. I've done several in the smoker for the first 8 or so hours, and finished in the oven for a few hours more. Then into the cooler wrapped in towels and foil. They've turned out awsome...as did your's by the looks of the qview!
I agree with the corona, and the newcastle. Think of newcastle as somewhat like a amberbock, but much tastier. If you want to combine Mexico, and dark beer you gotta try Negra Modelo (dark beer as far as amberbock color goes.) I tried one on a friends advice, and was pleasantly surprised. Goes...
It seems to help keep the heat in, with the chimney on the top of the lid, the smoke, and related heat would just go up to the top, and fly on out the chimney. With the extention down to the grate. the heat goes up, gets trapped, and then slowely goes out through the longer, lower chimney...
I used the charcoal pan a couple times, but found the temp diff from side to side was 30-40 deg. I got four 6x18 inch sheets of steel at home depot...someone posted about the idea once before (18 or 22 gauge...can't remember, but needed a little umpff to bend them) bent them into a slight curve...
I have yet to wrap a butt. I usually don't even move it once it's on the grill. I do spritz with a mix of apple juice, grenadine, and a touch of rum. I also tend to spritz my mouth a lot with that same mix. I spritz about every 45 min to an hour, when I check the temps, and charcoal level.
I...
I just bent mine in such a way to follow the curve of the lid. It kinda crinkled a bit in the middle, but I think it works great.
The first pic shows the extension put on the lip of the top lid. It keeps it from moving around. The second pic is from the second smoke I did on the chargriller...
Dang, dude that looks awsome. Yum. I thought Fatty's were all hype, then I made one. The next time I made two. The third time I made two fatty's with three sausage rolls. I have yet to have any leftovers. Truely one of the greatest creations known to man! I scream, you scream we all scream for...
Az_Redneck: you said it all!
Thick skin is needed, in my opinion, for life in general.
I have many other things floating around in my head (some not so nice ), but for respect of the board, OTBS, and the Smoking Gods (since I've got some ribs on the smoker as I type) I'm going to keep those...
