    My second Smoke - Baby Back Pork Ribs

    As a BBQ enthusiast who has yet to enjoy his first smoke, I'm envious that you were at least able to make mistakes...I'd definitely eat what I see on that plate.

    St. Louis Sunday

    Someone could have a better technical reason, but I believe because spares (St. Louis style) have more meat than baby backs, they require a longer cooking time in order to allow for an optimal penetration of the meat.

    My First Attempt at Smoking Dry Ribs 3-2-1

    Love the goat.  I personally don't like "fall off the bone" ribs.  I prefer a little tug; as long as they don't "rip" off the bone.

    My First Attempt at Smoking Dry Ribs 3-2-1

    Memphis style!  I don't see a lot of those here.  What were you smoking on?

    Anyone use a "Radical" secret ingredient?

    Stan, Do you already use garlic salt/powder in your rub before the addition of the clove?  Just curious how much garlic is appropriate. Thanks! Bradley

    Anyone use a "Radical" secret ingredient?

    Mdboatbum, I certainly love to "kick it up a notch" where I can.  I actually regularly mix hot sauce in with my ketchup.  Heinz and Tabasco I think had (or have) a product that does just that.  But I think I'll have to try your suggestion.  Thanks!

    Forgive My Ignorance...Why so much interest in gardening?

    Pineywoods, That's what I suspected, but I wasn't completely sure so I had to ask.  If I had the means, I would definitely be into seeing if I could turn my thumb green or not!

    Forgive My Ignorance...Why so much interest in gardening?

    I can see that.  I really like what I'm seeing here.  I've been consumed with all the great information I'm finding here.  Thanks!

    Forgive My Ignorance...Why so much interest in gardening?

    ...I'm brand new to the site and haven't smoked anything yet.  I was just wondering if the forums related to gardening are because it's cheaper and better to have fresh ingredients to smoke with?  If someone could give me a rundown on the benefits or any information in general I would truly...

    sipp, Powdered mushrooms!  Now that sounds like a "radical" ingredient to me!

    Anyone use a "Radical" secret ingredient?

    dewetha, This is probably where I'll be when I start smoking, adding/subtracting ingredients and such.  I imagine some people tinker their recipes forever trying to improve on what they already have.  And the coffee grounds!  Sounds great!

    Anyone use a "Radical" secret ingredient?

    Aaron, As I mentioned in my roll call post: http://www.smokingmeatforums.com/t/129409/havent-even-begun-already-addicted#post_876664 I'm still a "virgin".  I've save your recipe however.  I'm going to need all the help I can get when it finally comes that time.

    Anyone use a "Radical" secret ingredient?

    Bill, Thanks for the recipe!  I actually saw this while looking at the forum before I decided to sign up.  It's bookmarked.  I can't wait to try it.

    Anyone use a "Radical" secret ingredient?

    Mike, I'll have to try Jeff's stuff out.  I see that he's mentioned everywhere on the forum but I still haven't figured out exactly who he is; the founder of the site maybe?  In any case, as I just joined yesterday, I mentioned in roll call that I don't have a smoker...yet!  I can't wait...

    Haven't Even Begun--Already Addicted

    Dave, Ed, Bill and Stan, Thanks so much for your replies!  Bill, The reason I can't get started right away is that I am in an apartment with no balcony (very common up here).  I'm not sure even the simplest of setups would allow for indoor smoking. Stan, It makes my mouth water just looking...

    Anyone use a "Radical" secret ingredient?

    Interesting. I'm glad to hear that there is some camaraderie here amongst chefs and it's not every man for himself where it counts.  I am also glad to hear that people can get creative (with Kool-Aid and such) or buy pre-made sauces and rubs all the same.  ...And it took me a few searches, but I...

    Anyone use a "Radical" secret ingredient?

    As an outsider looking in, it's not surprising that people hold their rubs and other BBQ recipes close to the chest.  Many have toiled endlessly to find the perfect blend of magic and don't want that hard work exploited by someone who hasn't earned the right. I would like to know if any of you...

    Haven't Even Begun--Already Addicted

    Hello from Washington, DC!  I am very happy to have found this forum.  For over a year now, I have been telling my fiance that the day after we buy our first house, I'm buying my first smoker.  First, I love to prepare and eat food as it is.  I like to get creative in the kitchen and "break...
