    Rib cooking time question

    Im going to smoke a few racks this weekend and was wondering...It appears everyone agrees ribs cook to time and not to temp, is this true? or is there a temp we should also shoot for.  The other question is...after the 3-2-1 method is done is it ok to keep them in the smoker at a lower temp? ...

    Giving Brisket Flat a try again... Q-View

    I had the same issue this weekend, 5.6lb with about a 3/4" fat cap and smoked for 9 hours (about 5 hours of constant smoke from the amazensmoker then a few hickory chips along the way)  The thing was completely dry.  Did a rub overnight, and kept temp between 210 and 240. Foiled for the last...

    New user, new Smoker-- think i've narrowed it to two smokers

    so the 30" with the window came in today, I went ahead and seasoned it, and only had some chicken breasts and some hot dogs around so i threw them in.  The hot dogs were awesome, tasted like summer sausage.  I used a sugar based rub from bbqpitboys on one and a memphis salt based rub on the...

    MES smoker and Hi Mountain jerky seasoning

    I will be using the hi mountain seasoning packs this weekend to try and smoke (and only smoke) a batch of jerky.  In reading everything I've been able to find it looks like the consensus is to smoke at 150*-160*.  I do have the amaze-n-smoker on the way, since I can get the smoke flavor using...

    No i havent yet, I know for health reasons the cure probably isnt a good thing to mess around with so thats why I asked

    Bear, a little off topic for this thread but I'm going to give your unstuffed beef sticks a run next week i think.  How long can the meat sit in the cure in the fridge?  Since the smoker isnt in yet i'm not sure exactly when they would be cooked.  Is more than 3 or 4 days a good or a bad thing...

    Definetly will get the 6x8 if that fits.   edit: ordered package 2, already have a torch suitable but its a really good deal for the 3 flavors

    Yea i just wanted to be sure the 6x8 fits, I'll definetly be ordering that with some dust as I've already got a torch.  I also just looked at your recipe for the unstuffed beef sticks and think I may have found my first smoke

    New user, new Smoker-- think i've narrowed it to two smokers

    The MES 30" with the window has been ordered.  It fit properly into my budget at 250 and although I would have loved the extra space a 40" gives, I had to sacrifice.  Hopefully it gets here this weekend and I can start playing with it. for the A-MAZE-N-smoker should I stick with the 6x6 ?  I'd...

    New user, new Smoker-- think i've narrowed it to two smokers

    Dale, I do appreciate your input also.  I didnt even think of the cleaning issue of the glass but actually had more of a concern that it would not hold heat as well as the rest of the box would (and insulation is important in upstate NY winter).   I was reading through other threads yesterday...

    New user, new Smoker-- think i've narrowed it to two smokers

    awesome, thats really what I needed to hear to reinforce my thoughts on those pucks.  I really wish they made a way for it to take chips as well.   Bearcarver, how often does your MES need a chip refill, and do you need to open the door to get the old chips out before adding more to get good...
