My First Smoke Day

[Jim McKelvey]

My very first Smoke Day – lots of fun and an overall success according to the family and friends. Hope you enjoy:

Starting with spares and a small amount of flap meat for beans. Used a modification of Lilly's rub.

Next up, a "pernil" style butt on the gasser. Lots of garlic, oregano, achiote...

The plate with yellow rice and beans (cooked under the ribs in the WSM). Standard grilled corn on the cob did not make the cut for the main plate.
