    Just salt, pepper, and garlic rubbed cut St. Louis ribs. Cooked about an hour hot 450-500° with lots of apple wood chunks. Served with Alabama white sauce, cheap sliced white bread, and thin lays chips, just like one of my fave BBQ joints, no full plate pictures. The pregame was starting and this girl has priorities. #GoGators

    That's a high speed cook right there.  Spritz often?

    I’m not a spritz fan @lousubcap I saw a PBS show with Steven R making these on an egg and he spritzed his then covered them with some goo, but I don’t like opening and closing the dome so often when I am looking for heavy smoke flavor.

    @kl8ton I need to find the @Mickey posts! Hopefully her/his white sauce recipe is a bit more exciting than mine.

    He is just more of a hot and fast cooker.  I don't think he low and slows anything.  He may not even have gaskets.

    True. 6 Eggs zero gaskets. Nothing over a 3 hour cook. Found you can turbo anything. At 77 not sure i will finish a long cook

    I’m just me, don’t mind comparisons (wish I had the metabolism to have more lard in my recipes). @Foghorn I would guess we are probably related 🤣.  In the way back my people were lighthouse keepers along the coast and settled for a couple generations in Miami (police and plumbers). Dad went to Gainesville for school so I was raised outside Gainesville and ended up staying there for school and eventually being a professor there before coming to A&M to teach. As you can imagine I’m pretty damn excited about the Gators playing Monday!
    @BeanHead, it's my mom's side of the family that is from Florida, from the Wauchula area.  I was raised in a Seminole household because my mom went to FSU in the 1950's.  We ended up in Orlando.

    My bro is in the Orlando area now, but he and his kids are the first of our kin in the area. He also went to FSU, but the fam didn’t disown him 😍

    @Botch your plate pattern always makes me smile, my BFFs grandma had that pattern and he has been collecting bits here and there for the last 50years because it reminds him of her. It always catches my eye in thrift shops because it reminds me of him (and now I will also think of your beautiful food).

    Well @GrateEggspectations I ended up with a smaller smoke ring, 8.5 inches. It sits perfectly in the kickash can of the MiniMax. Trying to cold smoke a couple cheeses over applewood pellets. We shall see. Thanks for the inspiration to buy more gadgets. My grate was a bit gross so I sent the cheese on some grill mesh.

    Local butcher shop carries them. I didn't see the $/lb, but that little strip loin was $95. Definitely a different experience for sure. Will likely do it again, but special occasions only at that cost,lol.  Just noticed a giant chip in my plate too...damn

    @BeanHead, since you're in Texas, can't hurt to rest the mesh over a pan of ice. You can also harvest the smoked water for cocktails! While you're at it, smoke some butter too.

    I was thinking this might be cooler on a larger egg, dissipate the heat more.
    THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER

    I do have an XL but it is gonna be busy here in a second 🤣. I have been watching the temp and if I get close to 90 I will add the deflector with a pan of ice under the cheese. That is what I do when I smoke hard boiled eggs and it seems to be a good system for regulating the heat.
