I have ribs going on today.

 

Question: I've been watching triple D a bit the last week. A couple of bbq joints they went to said they don't remove the silver skin off the back of the ribs. I always understood that this was a must do. Anyone that can comment either way? sometimes its a bitch to get off and if it makes no difference then why do it?

I don’t think it makes much difference in the cook itself , the silver skin isnt pleasant to eat though or have in your mouth.

OK braintrust - thermal cover (insulated blanket) for winter time smoking  -thumbs up or down?

it's a winner. Works good

Even better is to get a small ice fishing tent and put it in that with the smoke stack vented outside. terrific especially if it's windy. I use an aluminum flexible dryer vent tube

Anyone here try charcoal pellets in their smoker?

Run'um straight or blend them?

I have been using  Royal Oak 100% charcoal pellets with good results, while not as flavorful as using charcoal it's a nice compromise and are not affected by moisture. Get mine at Tractor Supply

Doing a small brisket. Wife had it in the freeze. It’s only 5 lbs, just the flat. Not sure how this will work as it’s not even 1.5 inch thick. I’ll probably turn it in to a brick.

picked up a welding blanket yesterday. Giving that a try too.

Couple of steaks for tomorrow’s dinner for my son and I.

Prices are getting out of hand.

I should have dug through the freezer for another package from 2 weeks earlier.

Have some piece of flesh called a "flank steak" and a Cornish game hen finishing up, after like a dozen Hamm's.  Not sure what the fuck to expect from either one...

 

between the flesh and hamm's probably a good night sleep:thumbsup:

Welding blanket definitely helps keep the temps from fluctuating. 
 

Ribs today for tomorrow’s dinner. Hoping to go to the car show in Toronto tomorrow.
