Those both look good. What was the taste rating for the tubed meats and shoulder?

My shoulders are always money because, well, pork shoulder is about as easy as it gets and it’s really hard to f up.  However, when I checked my wood stores, I was all out of Apple and Mulberry(my pork goto’s), so settled for hickory.  Good, but the apple and/or mulberry takes it up a notch.  My neighbor has 4 mulberry trees on the fence line.  Shoulda just chopped off some small branches and thrown them in.  It was 1 am.  They wouldn’t have noticed.

Taste in the Kielbasa was 5/7. Maybe a little saltier than I'd have liked. Smoked way too hot though and popped all the casings. First attempt at an offer smoke in a kettle grill, I'll get better

If you can see in my photo, I build a foil wall between the coals and the cooking area.  I also foil 2/3 of the coal grate under the cooking area. That directs the inflow under the coals.

It's been a bit since I posted, but I'm still smoking fairly often.  My wife told me she wanted some ribs this weekend.  She likes ribs (imo) overcooked. She wants to grab the bone, and just pull it right off.  So that's what I tried to deliver. I picked the ribs up at MHK Meats.

Here is the rack, rubbed and left in the fridge over night.



3 hours into the smoke at 230 degrees.  I'm smoking with a mixture of hickory & cherry wood.  I've spritzed the ribs 2 times thus far with a mixture of apple cider vinegar and a beer from Kansas Territory Brewing called Aeroplane Pale Ale. 



After the initial 3 hours, I wrapped the ribs and gave them a good amount of the mixture mentioned above.  Here they are after 5 hours on the smoker.  This picture is a bit bright, because I took it outside.



After those 5 hours, I slathered the ribs with some bbq sauce, and they went back on the smoker for 1 more hour.  During this hour the ribs got 2 coats of sauce.  At the end of that hour, they were sticky, but not wet.    Here is a picture after 6 hours of smoke.



And finally, the result.   Like I said, these are too soft for me.  I like a bit more bite to my ribs, but this was exactly what my wife wanted.  I'm going to call this a successful smoke.

(I couldn't get the gif to load.  So I just included the link to the pull)

"Overcooking" ribs allows the rub etc. etc. to work into the meat.

I have a pretty new gas grill that I got for our wedding a few years ago. I just got propane last week and for some reason while I was grilling last night, the temp couldn't go over 350. I have no idea why. The flame remained small, even when I had it on high. Any ideas what might be wrong with it?

Oh ya, all the way. One thing that got me thinking, is I continue to marinade a lot of my meats even after I  put them on the grill. I wonder if some of those juices are dripping into the burners, messing them up?

I walked into MHK meat today looking to buy a turkey leg.  They were out of turkey legs so I walked out of the store with a whole duck.  I have no clue how to smoke a whole duck.  I'll report back.
