Welcome to the forum Frank. Don't feel bad, none of us could figure anything out when we first discovered this forum either. Some of us still can't, especially me! :D

Have fun and ask all the questions you need to.

Thanks for the info and encouragement. got 2 racks of baby backs and a 6 1/2# butt in the smoker as I type this. I'll let you all know the results.

Welcome to the forum Frank. The food counts more than the acronyms ;D

When I first joined I saw things like FTC, PID and ABT. Can't find it? Just ask.

DTAggie · May 31, 2010, 09:08:10 PM

Well Frank how did it turn out?

Sorry it's taken me so long to get back to all of you. Had a house full of people, last ones left yesterday.

Day before I rubbed everything with Dinosaur Barbeque recipe Red Rub. Refrigerated overnite. 7 AM took butt out to warm, into smoker at 10. 3 hours later 2 baby backs went in. did 3 hours smoke, 1.5 hrs foil in smoker, then onto grill to glaze. Smoked butt for 6 hrs total. Kept butt in until IT 190. About 12 hrs total.

Glazed ribs with Dinosaur BBQ recipe Mutha Sauce, shredded butt and used Mutha Sauce, vinegar, beer mixture to moisten shredded butt.

Flavor of everything was great! ribs a little dryer than ones I've done on thr grill, but tons better flavor. Pulled pork stringier than one I've done previously, forgive me, in crockpot. Probably should have brined everything 1st.

All in all a promising start. Sorry, no pics. I never checked the camera ahead of time. It was dead.

I'll do better next time!
