Got a new smoker, what should I make first?
So I got a new smoker... I'd been wanting a new one for a while, and this one came at the right price: FREE!
It's a Bradley BTIS1 that a friend got and didn't want. Yeah, it's electric, but it was free. So brisket or ribs? I've been in Memphis for the past week, so pork butt is out. Or chicken? I saw some smoked Cornish game hens this week that looked pretty fantastic. |

Brisket destined for the smoker. Rub: Yellow mustard, salt, pepper, paprika, cayenne, cumin, garlic and oregano.
Had to cut in half, the smoker is too small (width) to fit a full brisket. Will put the point on the lower rack and have a full tray of burnt ends. |

They're nowhere near as cheap as wood. It uses one of the little bisquettes every 20 minutes, and I got cases of 48 for $20. So $1.25/hour for smoke.
I'm already liking this thing if for no other reason than I can smoke without heat in it. Looks like my next slab of bacon will be cold smoked. |

Hey, not to misdirect this thread, but I don't want to start another one so alike, but I'm a TOTAL novice to doing ribs and my friends are having a rib contest later this month. I need to know what's the best kind of ribs, how to cook...only have a gas grill...the best sauce...TOTALLY CLUELESS. Anyone care to help me out? You'll have to instruct me like a child because I don't have any idea how to do this right. I can't imagine a better place to ask about BBQ.
Oh, and the guy hosting the contest is a Raiders Fan...and he thinks his ribs are all that. |

I've never done them on the grill so take this with a grain of salt.
I rub them the night before (remove membrane of course). Then I smoke them at about 225-250 for 4 hours. Then brush a little sauce on them and wrap them in foil. Back in the smoker for 2-2 1/2 hours. This breaks them down so they almost fall off the bone. Then smother them in sauce and grill on an open grill just to caramelize. You could imitate this I suppose with a pan of soaked chips or chunks set right on the burner. |

I've got my pork butt on the smoker now. Making it for tomorrow's KC game at a friends. I hate the 10 am kickoffs for us though.
