    Posted by Bradley47 | 9:08 AM | | 0 comments »


    6 racks baby back ribs (4 to 6 lbs.)
    12 T. Sweet & Hot Rub
    3 C. of your favorite barbecue sauce

    Sweet & Hot Rub
    3 T. kosher salt
    3 T. black pepper
    3 T. paprika
    3 T. brown sugar

    Stir ingredients together in a mixing bowl.

    If cooking on grill: 2 cups wood chips, preferably apple, soaked in 2 cups apple cider or water 1 hour; drained

    Remove the thin, papery skin on the back of each rack of ribs, or ask your butcher to do it. (Pull it off in a sheet with your fingers, using a corner of a dish towel for a secure grip.) Sprinkle 2/3 of the rub on both sides of the ribs, patting it in with your fingers. Let rest for 30 minutes, while you light the grill or preheat the oven.

    Set up grill for indirect grilling. (See instructions below.) Place ribs on a rack in the center of the grill away from the heat and cook for 1 hour.

    Brush ribs with 1/3 of the sauce. Cook 15-30 minutes more. The meat will be very tender and will have pulled back from the ends of the bones. Transfer ribs to a platter. Brush with more sauce. Sprinkle with remaining rub. Serve remaining sauce on the side.

    Serves: 8.


    4 to 6 lbs. of chicken parts of choice
    1/2 C. butter, cut into chunks

    Smoked Beef Jerky Recipe

    Posted by Bradley47 | 3:02 PM | | 0 comments »

    Ingredients:

    • 2 cups soy sauce
    • 1 cup Worcestershire sauce
    • 1 cup cranberry-grape juice
    • 1 cup teriyaki sauce (such as Soy Vay®)
    • 1 tablespoon hot pepper sauce (such as Tabasco®)
    • 2 tablespoons steak sauce (such as A1®)
    • 1 cup light brown sugar
    • 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper, or to taste
    • 2 pounds flank steak, cut into 1/4 inch slices against the grain
    • 4 cups wood chips, or as needed

    Directions:
    1. Whisk together the soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, cranberry-grape juice, teriyaki sauce, hot sauce, steak sauce, brown sugar, and black pepper in a bowl, and pour into a resealable plastic bag. Add the flank steak, coat with the marinade, squeeze out excess air, and seal the bag. Marinate in the refrigerator for 8 to 10 hours.
    2. Remove the flank steak from the marinade and wipe off the excess. Place the flank steak onto the wire racks of the smoker. It is ok if the meat is touching, but to not stack.
    3. Place the racks into a smoker, and smoke according to manufacturer’s directions, using 4 pans of wood chips (1 pan per hour) until the jerky has dried and will break when bent, 6 to 8 hours.

    Ingredients

    Dry Rib Rub:

    One-quarter cup onion powder
    Two tablespoons smoked paprika
    Two tablespoons brown sugar
    One tablespoon canning salt
    One tablespoon chili powder
    Two teaspoons black pepper
    One teaspoon oregano
    One teaspoon garlic powder
    One-half teaspoon curry powder
    One-half teaspoon cumin
    One-half teaspoon ground red pepper
    One-quarter teaspoon cinnamon
    One-eighth teaspoon ground cloves


    Mix the dry ingredients together, then coat the pork rib slabs on all sides with the mixture. Let the ribs rest at room temperature for one hour, or put them in the fridge and let them rest overnight if you like to plan ahead. It's not necessary to let the ribs rest that long...the meat is not really that thick, so one or two hours will be plenty of time for the seasonings to do their work.

    Using hickory for wood smoke flavor, smoke the slabs at 225 degrees Fahrenheit for three hours. Check for doneness at that time. If not quite ready, give them another hour and test them again. When done, brush on a thick coating of your favorite barbecue sauce, layer on the white bread, and wrap the slabs in foil.
