need Dry rub and general info

Good morning, Liverdal. My wife is "Jonathan's Mom" too. How 'bout that!?

I don't own a CS, so I am an authority...But, I've heard these dudes using hooks to hang ribs in their CSs. See what I mean? Remove shelves; hang many ribs. Hang from what? I don't know. Maybe leave in one rack. Some CS owner will wake up when the sun crosses the Mississippi and report in. You can loosely roll those ribs, too. Looks odd, but smoking works ok.

As for rubs, check the top of your screen. Find "search". Go there. Type in "rub." Click "recipes" to limit your search. Go! Boom! Many rubs. Here's one. Notice heavy on the paprika. Good luck.

LD,

Did you get my reply? I indicated how you could do the 6 racks and how you could stretch the rub.

I2 right, there are some good rubs out there to make.

Hey SmokinOkie

How about letting us all know your secrets to putting that many ribs in the cookshack i think all of us would love to know how

thanks

JJ's rub is another good one, a bit less spicy then the CS rub but you can always fix that or mix them together and create a whole new style. Where in Joisey? We are in NW Bergen County, actually got a sunny day today at last although I don't think it will last for long.

There was no secret, same thing is in our archives.

You have three racks, put 2 on each rack. Just know that the bottom shelf is closer to heat so it will affect the ribs. My suggestion is to rotate the ribs at the 2 hour point (bottom rack to top, top to bottom).

Thanks to everyone for the replies. As to where in Joisey-- in regular terms I live in Westampton - Burlington County. In "joisey speak"... exit 5. I, was also able to enjoy our one day of sunshine. Guess I will be smoking in the rain tomorrow.

It worked great!! To make things a little easier on me, I cut the racks in half. Then I staggered 4 halves on each rack. The top and bottom racks were layed out east to west. The middle rack, north to south. So if you were looking at it from above, the racks would make a plus sign. At the two hour mark, I rotated the top and bottom racks, as Smokin'Okie recommended, and spritzed with apple juice. At four hours, I took half the racks off and left the other half for another hour. They turned out wonderful, according to my neighbor. The only other thing I did was add a little extra wood at the beginning because I knew opening the CS half way through I would lose alot of smoke. The only down side to this working out so well... I don't have an excuse to get the model 50. I was saying to DH we need the 50 to do more racks-- darn they made the Smokette TOO well.
