    New to the great smoking world...

    Hello, welcome from Maine! I cant offer too much advice on the chip front as I use a barrel grill with no firebox and use charcoal and wood chunks. But from what I have gathered from reading around this place the half cup or 4oz addition is the reccomended amount. Keep chatting around here and...

    Molasses under your rib rub?

    Oldschool thanks for the welcome! And thanks for the tip, I use the molasses like you said more to hold the rub than flavor but I like the deep rick flavor I get and the dark color.

    Molasses under your rib rub?

    I use it mostly on ribs but have used it on butts as well. it is a bit sweeter and no tang like mustard but I feel the flavor is very deep and even a bit smokey even before the smoke lol. But I do use mustard as well from time to time.

    Molasses under your rib rub?

    I have done a bit of BBQ and been cooking in restaurants for several years and I think I prefer molasses slathered on my ribs under my rub more than mustard. I am posting on this more out of curiosity than anything, I know most of you on here go more by the "whatever floats your boat." mind set...

    NEED ADVICE! :S

    yea it has a charcoal rack I use and vents on either end on the bottom one right infront of the coals to feed it air. And I hadnt thought about just cutting a door in it that might be a really good idea Ill have to think about it before slicing into the metal though lol.

    NEED ADVICE! :S

    Ok I have been able to make due so far with what I have for equipment. However, this process takes a lot of tinkering, opening my smoke box while cooking a LOT, and very extended cooking times. I am hoping I can find some support on how to modify my procedure possibly to get better results. I...
