    Smoking 18 1/2 lbs Boston Butt

    That's two seperate shoulders in that vac PAC. With propane use indirect heat and keep temps about 225-275. Make "foil bombs" with soaked chips and place one on the burners every 45 min or when you're out of smoke. You can use yellow mustard to rub the butts then I would recommend a brown sugar...

    Can't seem to get baby back ribs right (UPDATE)

I have 4 thermometers I've gone through in the last year or two cause of fluctuating temps. My MES 30 tends to run a bit hot also so when I set it to...

    Warm weather in December means a full smoker with Qview

    You all hit it right on. As the chicken was cooking I realized it should have been on the bottom. Never had a multi rack smoker till now! Thanks for the feed back y'all.

    my first smoke, ribs, with pics

    They look good! The ribs were too spicy probably because you were a bit too liberal on the rub. I tend to put a lot on also, and my lady remind me every time they were too spicy. Somehow....all the ribs disappear still...

    Warm weather in December means a full smoker with Qview

    It was great Steve, and it's all gone! The broccoli slaw is something I just decided to add instead of all cabbage slaw a while back. I enjoy real crunchy slaw so now that's the only way I make it. Here is the recipe: http://www.food.com/recipe/creole-coleslaw-31208 I always make 1.5 servings...
