Giving a Pork Shoulder Roast a try (Bone in)
One way I've always wanted to try was to smoke the skin for a couple of hours at 225, then transfer into an oven preheated to about 400, and roast until the skin starts to bubble...- shiizzo

Fire in UDS
It's better to bring the temp up slowly, than to start off too high, and have to bring it back down again... I usually start the coals outside my UDS, then let them get a little bit of heat in them, then move to the UDS with all valves open, and wait for the heat inside to reach near what I...- shiizzo

Fire in UDS
When you get the heat down to what you want, do you open the valves a bit to keep the fire at that temp? Or do you keep the valves as you left them to get the temp down? If the latter, then you may be suffocating the fire.- shiizzo

Tapenade as a wet rub on lamb ribs?
Sorry I didn't update this thread sooner... In the end, the ribs came out... not so good. The flavours weren't the problem, the tapenade actually went very well. Instead, the problem was the ribs themselves. They were maaaaasively fatty, even after 4 hours in the oven. I do believe that this is... -
Tapenade as a wet rub on lamb ribs?
Well, I went ahead and did it anyway. I used a "thai" tapenade with ginger, lemongrass, coriander and coconut milk. I put it in the oven though as we have laundry hanging outside so no smoke Put the oven at 248,so it's staying in there for the next 3 hours at the least, then I'll pull it out... -
Tapenade as a wet rub on lamb ribs?
I want to do some lamb ribs this weekend, and I was thinking of using olive tapenade as the rub. Not too much though, just that and some salt and ground pepper. I want to make sure that it won't overpower the flavour of the lamb... Any advice/experience? -
Beer can chicken
Thanks! I used the 3-2-1 method before... I think the problem might be that my thermometer is too short, so I'm not getting the proper temp of the center of the smoker. Also, I did do some ribs a while after starting this thread, but I added foil trays underneath the grill to block the meat... -
Beer can chicken
Thanks for the compliments, guys! I just use a store bought bbq spice for the rub... There isn't much variety around here when it comes to rubs. I still need to get into making my own. I usually use cilantro in the beer, but I ran out, which is why I used oreganum. I prefer it with cilantro... -
Beer can chicken
So this is my third time doing beer can chicken... Took a couple broilers, rubbed them with olive oil, then dusted with some bbq spice. The "beer" cans are half full with beer, chopped onions, salt/pepper, and oreganum. Went into the smoker at about 220 till IT of 180. Didn't time it, as I have... -

I only have one grid in my smoker... where can I put the water pan? Can a small water pan go on the same grid as the meat? -

Good to know, thanks! I will do that the next time I do chicken... -
First go at chicken!
This was my first attempt at smoking chicken... Ended up being a little dry in the white meat pieces, but the dark meat was okay. Threw on some ABT's (I think that is what they are called...?) and frankfurters wrapped in bacon Done... Yay!! Plated... -
