And I did baby backs in my old Bradley smoker 20 years ago and they were terrible. Dry. I didn't know about either wrapping or spritzing. Now looking forward to ribs in my new Pit Boss vertical. My favorite rib is the St Louis. I wouldn't turn down any ribs. ;)

    I have exactly the same smoker. I rub my ribs and throw them in there for 4 hours at 250 then check the temp and if it’s over 200 I pull them and rest for 30 min in foil. I don’t open the door, don’t spritz, don’t wrap, nothing. Everybody tells me they’re the best ribs they’ve ever had. Never thought about doing the smoke setting. May try that.

    Just bought the pellet smoker and used it for the first time to do ribs using the 3-2-1 method. Water pan was completely empty by the end of cook. Is that something that should be refilled during the cook? Going to try this method next. Really appreciate all the very informative videos.

  • @TheAmericanSmoke

    @TheAmericanSmoke

    Жыл бұрын

    That’s really up to you. I make sure that the water pan stays full during the earliest part of the cook to make sure that there’s plenty of humidity in the chamber which allows for better smoke adherence. After that I typically keep the water pan full because if the water is hot it helps to regulate the temp of the chamber. Just make sure you don’t refill it with cold water that will knock down your chamber temp a little bit and make it harder to regulate until the water comes up to temp. I hope this helps. Thanks for watching my channel. Make sure to share your favorite videos with your friends on social media. That helps me out a ton! Thanks!

They can a color pattern on them than resembles rattlesnake skin. The closest thing you can usually find in a grocery store is whole green beans.

    The pellet grills are an awesome alternative to stick burners. The really allow for the set it and forget it style of cooking. Especially if they have a smart controller like the unit I use in this video. Electric smokers work well to buy in my opinion do not offer the smoke flavor that a pellet burner provides.

    Same type. This is what’s called a Vertical smoker and there there are the Barrel type. To my knowledge, Traeger doesn’t offer a vertical smoker. You will get mixed reviews on all types and brands but generally most people become loyal owners of whatever brand they start with. However, Pit Boss is typically a little less expensive.
