    Johnny Trigg Style Ribs

    You'll find when you do get some Tiger Sauce, that it's not particularly hot (relatively speaking), and it has a very distinctive flavor. Good stuff, and I can't think of any sauce you could substitute and get the same flavor.

    MES 30... $149 at amazon......

    Amazon's posted policy: I've bought from Amazon for a looong time.  They used to post-order price match, but they stopped.  They hold a hard line on it now. But you can give it a try, can't hurt.  Good luck. Edit: By the way, the Amazon price history for Masterbuilt 20070910 30-Inch Electric...

    Pulled Pork in a Crock Pot?

    Yep, turn it down to low.  Since in a crock pot you're basically braising, it's gonna cook far quicker than in a smoker, no stall.  I really wouldn't worry too much about the IT, again, since your braising, it's gonna be moist & tender.  Just poke at with a fork now and then, when it pulls apart...

    The smoke ring mystery

    The general consensus is "artificially" creating a smoke ring is "cheating".  It's easy to do, which is why it doesn't buy you any points in competition. But if you want to do it, rub on some Morton Tender Quick, let it stand a bit, and rinse it off.

    The smoke ring mystery

    I took the heart of the OP's question to be "But what about the guys using the AMNPS?" (his question in his second post) i.e., lots of smoke, but no smoke ring. Technically smoke is a collection of airborne solid and liquid particulates and gases.  NO2 is one of those gasses that is a byproduct...

    The smoke ring mystery

    To be clear: A "smoke ring" is in fact not a "smoke" ring. The presence of smoke (or absence, for that matter) has nothing to do with it.

    Anybody Buy from and Aldi's?

    We had an Aldi's open up around here, went once to look around, didn't see anything I wanted, never went back. I've shopped at Trader Joe's when I visited out West, love the place. Go figure...

    Thoughts on reheating smoked baby back ribs?

    I too vacuum seal and freeze for later.  Since the plastic is drawn up tight to the meat, the pouch of food thaws very quickly in a bowl of water.  I then poke a couple of holes in the bag, and put it in the microwave.  I know it's different, but I find reheating food in a microwave works best...

    Who makes the "perfect" biscuit?

    Flour does make a difference.  Traditional Southern flours, like Martha White and While Lily are made of "soft" flour, which is relatively low in gluten.  High gluten is good for making yeast risen products such as bread, not so good when your goal is flaky, as in a biscuit or pie-dough.

    Corned Beef vs Pastrami

    "Steaming" in the pastrami equation is the same as the foiling part of smoking a butt, or the "2" in 3-2-1 for ribs.  Certainly not essential, just depends on what you want for an end result.  It is the way many "NY" Deli's would make a hot-pastrami hot. Pastrami is the method of cooking a...
