Were the ribs extra cold or even slightly frozen in the center when you put them in the smoker? The longer meat stays under approximately 140° the deeper the smoke ring penetrates.
Nice looking ribs!

I cut the chiles so they open but mostly stay intact. Then, the tedious coring and removing of the seeds & membranes. If you don't get a spicy spray to the face once or twice, you're probably doing it wrong. I rinse them in hot tap water (prepare the gasmask) and pile in front of a fan to dry.
Inside is a wedge of Alex's smoked Polish sausage, a fat pinch of parmesan shreds, butter knife full of Philly cream cheese & a generous shake of half-salt Magic Dust. They're wrapped in some cheap grocery bacon. I've tried higher end and thicker bacon but the thin commodity stuff seen here gives me the best results. A little extra shake of rub over the top and then about 90 mins offset from lump with hickory and apple.
Every time I make these, I promise myself I'll get a tool like this or maybe like this before the next batch.Mickey12 wrote:My trick is to use a grapefruit spoon to dislodge the seeds and/or the membranes. Cuts through the seed cluster easily as well.

LOL
Chicken looks great, follow 1 - 5 to get the most from Low & Slow. Might want to do some of the chicken dinners more than once to get a good feel for the WSM

Is this a different kind of cherry than the chunks I buy at Backyard Barbecue store in Wilmette ?
