Smoked ribs

[Laxguy59]

you may want to try using peach wood mixed with almond..seems to make the flavor much better than a hickory or mesquite IMHO

where are you getting those types of wood?

I have made some good tasting boston butts, I'm just working on really getting it to be the right texture for pulled pork.

yea. it took a few until I got it the way I wanted it. Now, I cook them at 200 & 1-1.5 hrs/lb. Usually a 12-15/lb butt, Ill start at about 8am and it will be done around 6:30-7:30pm

Keep in mind that there is an underlayment of tissue on the backside of the ribs. Be sure to peel this off before you begin the smoking process.

I haven't seen almond before, but Academy, Bass Pro, even Kroger have bags of Western Wood brand smoking chunks or chips. It's usually with the charcoal.

I use a lot of apple and orange chips in the grill. The chunks (soaked in water) work better in the smoker.

In stores I can usually only find Hickory, mesquite, and cherry

Gotcha- the local Academy almost always has pecan, orange, apple, and peach. Peach is the one that is sold out the most often.

I like this, but I'm always hesitant to wrap my BBQ in foil, will it lose to much moisture unwrapped?

Actually it holds in the moisture and the steam created will make them fall off the bone tender.

I buy most of my wood from Academy, Hickory, Pecan, Oak, Mesquite, Apple and I think Peach are available.
