Ribs n leg quarters SmokeFire

[bbqking01]

So we bought some ribs a week or so ago. Decided to do them today. Some leg quarters too. Fired up the SmokeFire, as it's getting redeye I'm waiting, will post more pics as we progress. I added a couple of drip pans at the bottom of the SF. Avoiding possible flare ups. (Not that I've had an issue so far!!) just a side note, using cherry wood pellets. New pellet ramp installed too.

And at approx 150 per rack we wrapped, added a lot of the juice I been spraying, put back on and added the chicken, first pic is just before wrapping, second is both sets on the SF. Also, even with the ramp, it's still caving in where the auger is. Don't know if it would shut itself off though. Add the beans...
Adding almost finished meat pics. Opened the foil and added butter and brown sugar baste to the ribs, about to add bbq to the chicken.

So I did not like the results. The ribs seem to have stalled...just not fond of the pellet taste..sigh...chicken skin was petrified! The ribs were a hit with everyone but me...I just prefer charcoal and wood. Maybe I'm just doing it wrong...chicken was good, just couldn't eat the skin...ribs...225 for 3 hours...sprayed every 45-60 minutes. Wrapped at 3 hours, added liquid to the foil. Then 2 more hours in wrap, opened and basted with butter and brown sugar. Left the open for another hour. The last hour at 250. They tasted very good, just not the regular charcoal wood smoke taste. The pork roast I did had the same type of weird outer smoke,caramelized texture. Similar funky wood taste. Did have smoke ring though.
