Reply to "Smokin' on the AQ......."

Hi Hook...
Yes...I pre-warmed to 260... then threw in a few chuncks of hickory that I chopped into 2x1" pieces or so...got them smokin' a bit and put in the room temp. ribs and reduced to 245 and let the temp. adjust accordingly. Finally set to 240 and let them cook for about 3 1/2 hours from the time I put in the ribs.
Same proceedure with the chicken...just higher temps to start and then 2.5 hours at 275 degrees.
Use at least double or triple the 2 oz. of wood recc. Smokes like crazy and the meat is impregnated with it. Do not understand why they caution NOT to go over 2 oz...it is just not enough smoke flavor for me and I have not seen adverse results, other than somwhat fluctuating temps. Works for me.
Wonderful bite to the ribs...not "fall off the bone" and not too tough...everyone loved them.
Regards,
Herb
