    Smoking Ribs - rub tips

    I would say even if you don't use Chef Jimmy's rub make your own. That way you know exactly what's in it and you can control every part of it. The basic ingredients are salt, pepper, onion, garlic, paprika and brown sugar. From there you can build your run to suit your taste.

    Sauce Recipe Help

    Don't think there is a way to keep the fat in butter from solidifying in the cold. Just barely heat it and stir the butter back in.

    Teach me how to smoke on my offset! Please?

    I was going to suggest heating the splits as well but keep an eye on them as they can catch fire if they get to hot. I heat mine up in my warming box.

    Teach me how to smoke on my offset! Please?

    You will get some white smoke wherever you throw a new piece of wood on the fire. All part of being part of the stuck burning crew. It's no big deal because it should start burning clean in a couple of mins.

    What other hobbies?

    Anything on the water! Boating, fishing, spearfishing, scalloping and diving. Cooking everything I can. Would love to get a dirt bike or four wheeler because we have all kinds of trails to ride in the ocala national forest.

    first time ribs

    I have never wrapped ribs in foil. You take a butter knife and slide it under the membrane which is attached to the bone then work your finger underneath and peel it up

    first time ribs

    Ok let's get you through this nice and easy. First take your ribs lay them meat side down and get rid of membrane from the back of the bones. The mix I use for rub is Brown sugar, paprika, salt, pepper, cayenne, onion powder, garlic powder and celery seeds. You can really throw anything you like...
