When I was a poor college kid, we always did brats with tortillas.




we would just do zatarain's jumbalaya. chicken breasts and hillshire farm beef sausage.

it was never great but filling and cheap

They suck, but I've never done them in the smoker.



Beef ribs take some skill to do properly and if you don't do them right they are tough and have poor flavor. If you can master the art though they are a beautiful thing. Brisket and beef ribs are far less forgiving than pork but if done right they have better pure flavor than a prime steak.

What kind of wood are you using...please don't say mesquite, be creative?

Personally doing 2 of them in BR along with about five whole chickens and other stuff. Using a combo smoke with pecan and peach wood. Can't tell you the rub.....it's a secret one I get from a Jewish guy who owns a deli...it is really good.


Mesquite is not a good smoking wood. It burns too hot and too fast. It's ideal for steaks or other high temperature cooking.

Personally I like Pecan or Hickory on beef for smoking (you really can use those woods on anything for that matter), oak is fine as well but oak is popular for burning clean and not adding flavor, I like to taste what type of wood was used. Peach or other fruit woods are better for pork or chicken.
