    First Pork Butt

    Tomorrow, I'm looking to get up at 4:30 and try my first pork butt. It's 6.8 lbs. so I'm thinking it'll take around 12-13 hours. I"m using Chris Lilly's rub.

    Spritzing BBs with Apple Cider Vinegar???

    I just put 6 racks of BBs (3-top; 3-bottom rack) on the WSM about 45 min. ago. I used a dry rub. They're smoking at 250. Should I spritz them with Apple Cider Vinegar at the 2 hour mark and then every 30 min or so? Any suggestions?

    First smoked ribs with pics

    Here are my first smoked ribs. Followed the BRITU recipe. Smoked for 5 hours. Could have put some more rub on and maybe more wood. Other than that they were very tender and moist. Thanks for the help, especially Glenn from Mississippi! I have some photos, but I don't know how to upload them.

    BRITU - temp seems low - HELP

    Followed the procedure in the BRITU recipe in the Cooking Topics of this site. Have vent 1 at 100% Vent 2 and 3 at 50% since I started about 2 1/4 hours ago. I'm wondering if I need to light another chimney of coals or should I wait. Or.. what?

    wood for smoking

    I was looking forward to smoking some 3 racks of baby back ribs using hickory chunks. How many chunks should I use? Also, should I use the minion method or the standard one for the charcoal? Thanks again! Steve
