    First Time Ribs

    I just wrapped them up in foil. The meat started pulling back right at 3 hours so everything looks great so far. I'll keep you guys posted.

    HELP!!! Temp is way toooo HOT!

    Try opening your stack up to let the heat out but keep the firebox vent closed. That has worked on my smoker today.

    First Time Ribs

    I put them on a half hour ago and the temp is holding steady around 225. I added some foil to make a baffle on the firebox side because I noticed that side was quite warmer than the other end when I seasoned it. Hopefully this afternoon I'll have some tasty ribs to eat!

    Afterburner On The Way . . .

    I got a gas grill when I bought my house 8 years ago. Recently I started using a charcoal grill and everything tastes sooooo much better. I'm not going back to gas!

    First Time Ribs

    I was thinking of trying to smoke some ribs for the first time this weekend. Any tips on doing this properly? Should I use a rub or a sauce or both?

    My wife just bought me one of those from Kmart. It was pretty easy to put together and it seems to be well made. I seasoned it and will be using it for the first time this weekend.

    I pretty new here and I have been using an ECB. I was telling her about an offset smoker I saw that I liked. Well, she went and got it for me today. She said it was an early Fathers Day present. I love it!
