Smoke Ring

Ribs, pork butt,  and brisket always good. I can’t get a decent smoke at all. Why?

Hit the search feature here and you will many threads regarding the BGE and the ring.  It is elusive at best but can be improved with rub enhancers.  FWIW-

There’s a whole lot of info here, but if it tastes good I would say don’t stress about the ring: https://amazingribs.com/more-technique-and-science/more-cooking-science/smoke-ring-mythbusting/

Sure, smoke rings are sexy, but I care more about flavor.  If the meat knocks them off their feet, they forget about the smoke ring.
