Got a 14 lber that took up all my space. Would have loved to throw a butt down, too.

Put a couple of racks of St. Louis ribs on just before 6 this morning. They'll be ready at noon. We will eat well around here today! Probably have a couple of cold ones around 11 to build up my appetite.

Negative. Just a charcoal/red oak/pecan fire on one end of the pit and meat on the other.

I did ribs last night. I bought a Weber gas grill, and it was my first time doing anything besides chicken breast and sausage. I wouldn't have paid $400. But for $75, its pretty good.

The potential is there. But I should've started them earlier. Once the game was going, I was just trying to eat. Another 45 minutes and they'd have melted.


And screw soaking the chips. Don't even bother with a pouch. Get a small aluminum pan, don't even cover it, just get it slowly going, and lean it as close to the burner as you can. Otherwise you get a weak, pussy amount of smoke. I got the fire going, left off the other grate, and built a foil wall between the heat and the ribs.

I should've fired up my charcoal smoker. But I wanted to see how the new grill worked out. For a gas grill, it wasn't bad. But I've never used anything from Weber that wasn't legit.

start with charcoal to get a fire, then all wood. I have holes in the bottom of my tray so ash goes out and air goes in.

using pecan and white oak 50/50 blend

webers are great. I've just never understood the point in a gas grill besides maybe cooking veggies and maybe some quick chicken legs outside.

It doesn't add flavor and you can't sear a steak. i've never tried to smoke on one, but i suppose it would be nice at keeping a constant temp.

Put mine on at 1 last night. I thought it would take 10-12 hrs. I'm already at 167 IT so running ahead of schedule.

be careful... I tried a quick cook last time at around 280-300. it was 8 hrs, but the fat in the deckle didn't render out very well. it tasted ok, but didn't get the buttery texture throughout.

I'm gonna cook at 220-240 and leave this one on for 12 hours no matter what.

It probably will. That last 40 degrees takes forever. The stall is real
