    Cleaning question.

    When asked I usually say "You don't." Grates can get nasty sometimes though. I slap them over the propane for a bit and give them a few licks with the brush and call it good.

    Need Help. Started my first smoke about 45 mins ago and...

    Solid answers! Soaking chips just makes it take longer to get rid of all the moisture before the smoke can start. Can't wait to hear how the ribs turn out!

    A long smoke on my day off

    Hard to say. I did some pork spare ribs one time, doing everything pretty much the same and I thought that had a hint of bitterness. Everyone else thought they were fine but.. Who knows!

    Look what my wife/son gave me!

    Thanks! From the looks of it I'll be sanding and painting the top of the firebox before winter but who cares!

    Beef ribs on the new offset

    Thanks again all! It worked out pretty good for sure. I noticed a little bit of cracking in the paint on the top of the firebox already. Oh well, burn it a few more times, sand, paint, repeat until it's junk. Then bolt/weld on a new one (old propane tank or something).  Next up is something...

    Beef ribs on the new offset

    Thanks!! An offset that my wife and son got for me. It was cheap but I am just tickled to death to have it. Still keeping my UDS but this thing was really fun to use!

    I've been thinking about those. I have a very basic low back traction 'apparatus' if you will. I might just have to bite the bullet and get one. 32 years old is too young for this crap. http://www.smokingmeatforums.com/t/250760/beef-ribs-on-the-new-offset#post_1600439 Thanks again all!!

    Beef ribs on the new offset

    Thank you very much! I wanted to get them out of the foil for a bit at the end but.. Life happens and that's BBQ! We had a little left over so we slapped it on some sandwiches with horseradish. Yummy.

    Think I'll cook some ribs!

    Sounds like a lot of fun! I've been looking at the Cunard website, just to dream a little.

    Beef ribs on the new offset

    Well, here is my first cook on the new offset. Beef back ribs. Seasoned. Salt and pepper. 1 hour in, had to peek and see how much rain was sitting in the bottom of the cooker. Only a little, but it was coming down hard for a bit there. Eeek! A tweak to the intake damper and the offset...
