    I brush on sesame oil, then apply a rub concoction I've settled on, then drizzle with honey once they go in.

    Hickory for smoke.

    Rub is as follows..
    1/4 cup brown sugar
    3/4 tsp garlic powder
    3/4 tsp onion powder
    1/4 tsp black pepper
    1/2 tsp salt

    I usually double the amounts, but keep those ratios.

    I did the same last night. Thick cut and marinaded for a day and a half in Stubbs Onion and Citrus marinade. They were over the top good!

    Marinated was awesome !!

    I like that griddle top for the Green Egg. I will have to see if I could get one for my Kamado Joe.

    Question about smoking with red oak.....How seasoned should it be? I have about 1/3 of a cord I split this past winter that was mostly already dead with some punk in the sapwood but the heartwood is still solid, but wet. Bark was falling off everything but I planned to use it in the stove in two or three years. Since it's cut into pretty short awkward lengths now im thinking of just using it in the smoker.

    Never used fresh wood but from what I am seeing maybe 6-12 months and splitting it will quicken the process. Makes sense.

    How long before using fresh cut wood?

    Ha!

    Rub = Good
    Cook = Not so good

    First time doing baby backs. They came out a little over done. They just fell apart in the foil. They aren’t terrible but they aren’t as good as the last spares I did. I tried 3,2,1 with them and probably should have done 2,2,1 or went with a lower temp.

    Yep, feel your pain... I personally like them to fall of the bone... but I find that setting my Traeger on 225F.. that it’s 3 and then 2 and I’m done...
