2-1-1 seems to work for me in my smoker at probably 250-270°F

Of course, different schedule for other meats like chicken, fish, sausage, brisket, pork loin... Etc.

I like some of the flavored McCormick Grilling Spices...

And Apple Slices, and sometimes orange juice or apple cider in the foil stage.

Sometimes sauce in the last half hour, sometimes not... Usually my own, sometimes one of the many flavors of Sweet Baby Ray's which is well received at my house when I don't whip up a sauce.

:cool:

I dry rub them the night before. I also add more dry rub after removing them from the foil.

All of these different ingredients sound great! I'll probably just stick to my own method, since I've got it locked down, but I might try the butter and brown sugar at some point. I bet it makes a great glaze on those bones.

That's most likely due to the higher temperature. I use 3-2-1, but I keep the heat between 200 and 250.

Makes sense to me... Hard as I've tried, I can't seem to keep the temp lower...

:(

There are a number of ways to do it. A smaller amount of fuel and working the intake baffle are probably the two biggest ones. Keep the chimney all the way open and tease the baffle at the bottom of the smoker. I have a vertical smoker; an Akorn, by Char-Griller, and it's very efficient, so I don't use much fuel, and can keep the lower baffle almost closed most of the time.

flash?

Most of my devices are either Mac or Android so I can't do flash. Doesn't Youtube have non flash options?

When are going to just move to html5 and get rid of these problems?

Thanks.

I know flash isn't inherently evil, but it's blocked on all but one of my machines (and that machine only has one browser that allows it).

That looks really good. I've dramatically cut back on meat, but something like this could fit in well.
