    You guys got me all excited about ribs that I had to make them last night. Here they are. Yum. They were literally fall off the bone. 2 hours smoke with just rub, 2 hours wrapped and 1/2 hour unwrapped in the boats slathered with Sweet Baby Ray BBQ sauce. All at 230 F

    I just let my brisket go for a minimum of 8 hours. Then test by feel like you'd do with a steak. BTW, my probe stopped working 2 years ago.

    I think that, in time, you'll find that the probe isn't really all that necessary. You'll get a feel for how long it takes to cook something and the internal temp isn't as critical as you might think. I've been smoking for around 20 years, first with a wood smoker and now with the pellet...

    Hey guys. If anyone is interested in smoking bluefish, go to Catch and Cook, the topic right under the Anglers Lounge. DamnFish posted instructions on how to do it. Now all I have to do is catch one of those yellow eyed devils.

    Yes. Smoking is all about "low and slow". I feel that if you crank up the temp, you stand a chance of getting dry meat. At times I've even let them go 4 hrs, wrapped at 230. The beauty of the pellet smoker is you don't have to babysit the fire. Set it for whatever temp you want and walk away.

    Not that this is correct. But what I do is to smoke them at 230 for about 1 1/2 to 2 hours. After that they won't take on any more smoke. Then I take them off and wrap them in aluminum with a bit of honey. Back on for another 3 hours or so. In this time they release a lot of juice and get...

    When you unwrap them, be sure to drain as much of the liquid as you can. Otherwise, the sauce will be all watered out. Then put the ribs back into the "boat", slather on the BBQ sauce and let em rip for about another half hour. YUM. BTW, they look fantastic.

    For a first try, I'd try meat. Maybe baby back ribs since the youtube video gives you instructions. Or maybe a pork tenderloin. When it's finished and falling apart, you could pull it and make sandwiches. But whatever you try, I'm sure you'll love it.

    I almost forgot. Here's an added bonus for you. Take a look at this you tube video HowToBBQRight This is where I started with ribs and of course I've tweaked the process a bit as time went on. No need to use his rubs, It's easy enough to make your own with whatever spices you like...

    You can smoke anything except a rock. The only thing is something like cheese or anything else that melts. But blues, blowfish, mackerel, and so on should be great. For things that melt, you really need cold smoker and that's an entirely different type of smoker. Wait until you try...

    I have the Camp Chef pellet smoker. Had it going on 10 years. These things are great. The smoky flavor isn't as intense as using real wood in a smoker. But Flavor is still outstanding. The great thing about these pellet smokers is that you can set the temperature you want ( I like 180 for...

    Washville Carwash

    I joined Everwash. They do a great job but are quite a bit more expensive than Washville according to their website. Has anyone been to both to compare the jobs they do? I'd like to switch to Washville to save some money but only if they're as good as Everwash

    Looks to be cooked perfectly. Not like the old days when we were told to cook it until it turns gray or we'll get worms.

    My son has a Honda 4 cylinder turbo and he has a bit over 140000 miles. Still going strong. But I'm just waiting for his tranny to go. IMO it's on borrowed time now.

    I forget what day of the week it was, but who remembers the all you can eat fried clam nights. Man, that was a great dinner. I think I might have been the one who put HoJo's out of business the way I ate at the all you can eat.
