    First attempt at baby backs

    I've never cooked ribs before and thought I'd give it a go in my new electric smoker. I read a bunch of different ideas and techniques and thought I'd go with one of the recipes from amazing ribs.com.  I smoked them with cherry, the only wood I have at the moment, for about 4.5hrs at 225...

    2 questions about foil and sauces

    Hey all. I'll be smokin' my first batch of baby back ribs this weekend and have a few questions. I'm going to use the 2-2-1 method and I was just wondering what wrapping them in foil actually does? I know plenty of people that don't wrap and get great results. My 2nd question, can you...

    Master Forge from Lowes

    Yes which gave me some pause before getting it. But after reading some reviews of other electric smokers in this price range, they all seem to get mixed reviews.

    Master Forge from Lowes

    Right, mine has the latch too which works great. It's the middle drawer that isn't sealing properly. How well does your middle drawer seal?

    No more 225˚. I'm a convert.

    Thanks for the reply and great info. First of all, I am not feeding these to anybody but my wife and kids and there is a Pizza Hut close by for backup. I'm definitely trying out a few things first before inviting any friends over. I may take them some leftovers if it works out well or just keep...

    Newbie question. I see that you used St. Louis spare ribs. If I was going to use baby backs, should I still shoot for a temp of 275? How long would you suggest I cook them? I'm going to attempt ribs for my first time this Saturday so I'm trying to gather as much info as possible. Thanks

    First time smoker.

    Thanks for the reply. The only reason I asked about non-skin smoking is that is what I usually buy when I'm grilling but I'm not opposed to buying breasts and thighs with the skin on. I will definitely brine from now on. I've brined before but was kind of in a hurry this weekend and skipped it...

    Master Forge from Lowes

    I picked up my first smoker Friday. For various reasons I decided on electric and bought the Master Forge from Lowes. I seasoned it Saturday and smoked 2 whole chickens Sunday. During the seasoning I set the temp to 230. For the duration of the seasoning the temp fluctuated between 228-232...

    First time smoker.

    Hey all. I, like many other dads this weekend, got my first smoker. I went with an electric, Lowe's Master Forge, due to simplicity. We decided to try 2 whole chickens spatchcocked and rubbed. I smoked them at about 230-240 until the breasts reached 165 and the thighs 175. Cooking time was...

    First time smoker

    Hey all. I've been interested in smoking for a few years and finally decided to take the plunge and buy a smoker for father's day. After much reading and going back and forth, I decided an electric would suit my schedule and personality best. My budget limited me to a few choices and I ended up...
