I recently bought a like new Masterbuilt smoker from one of my customers. Today was the cherry popper. I bought a huge rack of baby back ribs and a boneless pork butt for my debut smoke.
I coated a ton of McCormick Applewood rub and some garlic powder, onion powder and paprika and left them to get happy in the fridge overnight. I used the 3-2-1 smoking method with hickory chips and a bit of pure apple juice at hour 3 for extra moisture. We ate most of the ribs tonight and they were amazing. I'll shred the butt for pulled pork with slaw tomorrow.

Looks good and I'm sure it was good!
If you fish try some smoked Porgies! I used to do that every fall at this time for winter eating. Filet the Porgies and a quick smoke. I even did some Sea Robins one time. They were good too! A little smoked fish and sharp swhite cheddar cheese on a Ritz. Ummumm good!

Jon looks scrumptious!!!!!!
Ya gotta try a Rib Roast in there. Lot of recipes on line. I do it simple : Let the roast warm up a few hours on the counter rub with olive oil, then just salt and pepper 225-250 till it hits 125 pull cover and rest for 1/2 hour crank up smoker to 400+ sear till ya hit 130 -135 pull and rest for 15 min to half hour
OMfing G!!!! Better than any prime rib in a restaurant!
Ribs are great, but just did um too often.
pork loin comes out awesome too!
Got a pellet smoker grill last year to try, liked it so much, got a second for the camper.
