I've seen those. Even thought about buying them. Thanks for the warning.

Although, I recall an in-law having bought them, and thinking they weren't bad...



But that was before I smoked ribs, myself...

I can now say, after cooking 4 racks this weekend, they are good, chewy ribs that can be properly slow smoked
for 1/2 the time with good results. But they can be easily over-cooked. And by the samee token, mine for
lunch today were great. Just not as fall aparty as the full size USA racks. You gnaw a bit on em.
But for flavor, today I noticed no real fall-off. You can eat about 7-8 before getting a bit full.

haha, it might be awhile before I smoke 4 more racks, but I think they were fine, just short on meat.
The taste was good and the presentation was OK. Those four racks would have cost me 40 bucks
on sale had they more meat on them, lol. I got by with ten bucks and the same fun of cooking out,
so I won. I have 5 racks in the freezer of AMERICAN ribs. Not sure what to do this weekend, though.
I could blow off cookery. I guess it depends on the LSU-Bama game. Or how much wood I find around.

Read the previous entry and now laugh. Apparently a while wsa a day. I bought another box of the
Danish Ribs today and cooking em this weekend. It's not that I didn't learn my lesson, (holy crap, I almost typed 'lestne')
My brain is coming apart. But I wanted to try them twice to see if NOT over-cooking them makes them less
gnaw-y. I also approached the BBR cooler and they were 16-18 a rack at Kroger and I wasn't havin that.

My wife called me Friday as I was heading home and asked what we were doing this weekend, particularly Saturday. It seems that she was hungry for some ribs...who am I to say no!

Prepping



I don't think that I have had my small offset out in several years; since I picked up my Lang it has been my go-to. So this time I decided to pull out Little Brother.


Ya gotta make sure you have the correct tools of the trade!


Cheers!

Little Brother cruising along while Big Brother watches over


Crusin'


Almost done


I was going to take some pictures of teh finished product, but unfortunately the ribs didn't make it that long. By the time I got to the nieghbors house, the feeding frenzy was in full swing. Finished the evening up with a couple more fince cigars and sampling a couple of bottles of 18 year Scotch and a 27 year old Scotch (!!!)

Steve, why the extension on the smoke stack on the little one ?

Wes nice pick up, both of you look like you can do some serious damage to some livestock.

His neighbor had one 6 inches long, so Steve got a ten inch, which led to a 18 inch from next door and two months later, Steve is winning.

I have a Chargriller that is similar, so I was wondering if this was another mod I should look at making.

Default Re: What's in your smoker?

Actually, the stack extension and the sleeve I placed inside helped me tune the temperature a bit. Whit the just the "stock" stack, it didn't draw quiet enough. I have another extesion (that doubles the extension) but then it draws too fast. With just theone it seems to work much better IMHO, YMMV.

BTW, I have also experimented with various heat shelds between the fire box and the smoke chamber, as well as sand and/or bricks in the bottom of the smoke chamer.
