I have a question and a concern.

My question is, "Can you bring some to my house so I can eat them?"

And my concern is that you won't.

Damn, had quite the flare up just a few minutes ago. Too much grease leaked into the fire and my god it was flaming. I just bought a new gasket, and it's a good thing I did because the old one just got scorched.

I have since calmed the waters and back to smokin'

I'm doing some ribs on Monday.  I'll take pics, etc.  Did some pork butt the other day with a homemade rub and used a little apricot nectar to marinade.  Came out beautifully.  Mostly just used applewood so far for smoking.  Am I missing a lot from other woods or is apple pretty much the way to go with pork?

I only use hickory, but that's the way I was brought up I guess. Maybe I need to branch out  :dunno:

awesome, lighter than hickory.  Good on Brisket.

It's pretty mild but you can taste it in the crust and it's declish.

Was in St. Louis over the weekend....Hit up Pappy's Smokehouse.  The best BBQ I have ever had.  We had to wait in line for 45 minutes....it was worth it, it was also on Man vs. Food.  AMAZING!
