OK, on the map! Shoulder is smokin and the ribs go in later.......and it should all be done in time for the game!

 

[handymanstan]

Glad you joined us ameskimo1 and good luck on the ribs and shoulder.

Stan

Hey Ameskimo1, How's those ribs turn out?

 

[ameskimo1]

Humdinger, they and the shoulder turned out great - I have a new rub base now, Captain Morgan and orange juice then mix in the spices. Also used it to baste then used the drippings in bbq sauce. Apple/Cherry with some Peach chips tossed in from time to time. Check out that smoke ring, lol - I can only hope to accomplish that again!

Heres some Q in no particular order. I also used my AMS Christmas present for the first time Tuesday, some cheese pics at the bottom. I did end up spreading the cheese out a bit halfway through the smoke. Maple/Cherry mix.

I just added myself to the map. Ive also started a thread in reverse flow. Follow along with my smoker build it should be a good one.

Glad you could join us one ton,  Your smoker build is looking good and I will follow it.  Can't wait to see some Q-view from it.

We have had some problems with mapservices in the past and it looks like we are having problems today.  I can't click and change anything on the map so there must be a site issue.

Please try again later.

It wouldn't let place anything last few nights, but tonight I got it on there.

Hope to meet some of you in the coming year or so.

So I moved just over a week ago - and made sure I had room for the smoker, AMS, chunks, dust, etc - and managed to smoke a 9 lb butt today. 

Question is how do I change my place on the map?

Now the important stuff - was windy and low 50's, not much sun but the smoker ran at 250 or 275 depending which cheap gauge I was looking at. Today's choice of wood was Hickory with a touch of apple and cherry. The butt hit 165 in 10 hrs, foiled to 200 then in the cooler for 1 1/2 hrs. By 13 1/2 hrs it was pulled, packaged, and in the fridge. At least all the parts that didn't get sampled.

Was surprised how fast it cooked but it came out moist and tender. 

 

[humdinger]

Hmm, I'm not sure how to update the map. I have a typo in my call-out that has been driving me nuts and I can figure out how to correct it.

I see you're in Frankenmuth now......Great town. We go 3 or 4 times a year. Got married in the Bavarian Inn Lodge back '05!

So this is the deal with the map. Mapservices states you get 500 pins on your map but we are only getting 50 on our map. I have sent many e-mails to mapservices and have had no replies.  In order to upgrade I must donate to mapservices and I would but they only take bitcoins and I don’t have a bitcoin account.  Since they won’t respond to e-mail I find it hard to trust them enough to open an account just for this.   If someone has a bitcoin account and would be willing to try to pay the $9.99 to them I would reimburse you.

We are at the max number of pins we are allowed and until this changes I can’t add anyone else.

Ameskimo1 and Humdinger I can delete your pins and then you can redo them.  I will PM both of you to get this done.

Stan

 

[humdinger]

Stan, I'd be glad to split that $9.99 "donation" with you, but I also do not have a bitcoin account.

 

[angiem]

I'm ignorant, I know. I can't figure out how to plug into the map. Help, please?????
