I've been wanting to do some baby backs so my first attempt went in about an hour ago. I used the same rub I put together for brisket and also picked up a pound of salmon fillet for my daughter and girlfriend which will go in when there's about an hour left on the ribs. Cornbread, baked beans...
It's pink Himalayan I got at Trader Joe's. I have some apple chips that I alternated with hickory on my last brisket just to experiment and a bag of cherry that I haven't tried yet. I was thinking that different fruit chips would also go well with pork and am eager to try out some different...
This flat cut is the last piece I had in the freezer. Just under 4lbs and at 126* after 4 hours. It should be done just in time for dinner. I've got to call the butcher to restock the freezer...
Hi Leah. I'm in the Nashua area and we've gotten dumped on as well but I'm loving it even with all the shovelling. Got to keep the deck clear because the grill is always on standby.

I tried to be practical and disciplined so rather than ruin a $30 brisket I started out with chicken quarters. Mesquite chips and a light rub. I stayed up until 1am waiting with great anticipation. I'd give them a B- compared to other smoked chicken I've had. A good start I think.
43 and smoking since Santa brought me what I've been wanting for a few years. I've grilled for as long as I can remember and live to cook and eat. This has taken it to a new level.
I just found this forum while looking for some smoking tips and it looks like I found the right place. My awesome girlfriend gave me a beast of a smoker for Christmas and I've had success with chicken, salmon and brisket so far. Put the last piece of a 15lber in this morning actually. Next is...
