Hey everyone,

Wanted to introduce myself! Just fired up my new 3D this afternoon after a night of seasoning. Looking forward to the results soon

Welcome from Texas! What are you smoking?

 

[MacSmokin]

Hi Drains I'm From New Hampshire. Just smoking some baby backs as a test. Came out amazing. 1 small chunk of hickory and some peach/apple juice. Took about six hours to get to the tenderness I like.

Thinking next time a little less wood and maybe apple or cherry wood instead

Welcome from ND Justin!

For ribs and poultry, you'll typically want to use 2-3 ounces of wood, whereas for Boston Butts you'll want to use 5-6 ounces and for brisket you can push to 6-7.
