Thank you all. I did not use mustard, I think it is a lighting thing.

Well we entered a small local rib cook off yesterday and placed 1st out of 8 teams! The smoker ran like a beast.
What a great day.

Week 3 of rib practice! Also did 2 London broil , chicken thighs and wings. Getting the process down.
No trimming this week, just making them for dinner.

Well weekend 2 of rib cooking, things we much smoother. The couple of little changes make a big difference. 2 nd layer of seasoning gave a little more heat and the cherry wood changed the flavor profile! Very happy with the results, now try and repeat for next weekend. BTW my neighbor asked if I cou...

We’re going to add a little heat at the first level of flavor

Thank you, very tender and juicy.

Well this is the first run!
Turned out pretty good, going to make a few flavor changes and see what happens next weekend.
Smoked for 2.5 hrs, wrapped for about 2hrs, then glazed for about 20 min

Thank you. I have about 4 weeks to get better ! Lol

Okay all, I’m going to do a small rib cook off using baby back ribs. Any suggestions ??

Dirtytires, you are so correct. I tried to give myself 12 hours next time 14 to be safe. With all that being said I'm super excited to learn how to use the smoker and eat all the delicious food that comes off of it. So far the brisket and butts have been the best I have ever done.

It was a very busy day! Only able to grab a few phots. The spare ribs were naked! And could not have tasted any better. The butts will speak for themselves. All the briskets turned out as well as this one. Still learning the fire control butt starting to enjoy The process and the food. Just need som...

Getting ready for a little run this weekend!
I’ll send pics after the weekend, keeping my fingers crossed!

Well the rain finally stopped and I had some time in the schedule to season the smoker. So I did some smoked corn on the cob, chicken thighs and London broil! I was very happy with the results. Need to work on fire management skills. All in all a great day!

And other then paint and wiring lights I’m as done as I’m going to be this year! I need to learn how to use it. 1st party July 31st

The door hold opens are the 4th attempt to do something that worked and fit the look I was going for. I tried gas/spring supports and could not figure out the correct size/ angles. I can’t wait to get it home to power wash the inside and season it so I can start the fun part.thank you all for the ki...

I know it’s been a while , butt other then paint and lights I’m done for now!

I was able to get a little work done today, fenders mounted and cut the shelf.

Thanks Big T

Thanks Big T

A few steps forward and a few back tonight! On the positive side, we welded the ends of the trailer so I can mount lights, mounted CC handles. On the down side I’ve been trying to use lift struts to hold the doors open, it has not gone well. I don’t like the look of counter balances, what have other...

WOW! Can’t wait to see it come along.

Nice looking start, what size tank are you going with?

Well I’ve been a little busy with other things! But I was able to recalibrate the thermometer and add a little bling it now runs within 2 degrees of my digital ones. I have been firing it up a few times to bake the the outside and work on controlling the temp, once I get it to temp she hold steady a...

Dacolson, good call on the rings I may just hang tools off of it.

It was on the tank when I got it and it kinda gives it a neat look to me! I left the on the other end as well and used the pieces I cut off for the FB to hold logs on to of the FB.
