Yea it's propane. Taste the meat, not the heat.

Natural affinity?

This is just like an argument I've seen on a bike forum - guys saying they don't need a torque wrench because they can feel it. They've done studies and it's nonsense - miles off either way, and inconsistent in the same person too.

Anyway, it's my wife's birthday so I've got some Costco rib eyes on a reverse seat right now. Going to try finishing them on my chimney starter to see how that works.

Bro absolutely natural affinity lol I been smoking ribs for years never touched a thermometer... I go by the temp of my smoker the time it's on the color of the ribs then I wrap them for usually 1:50-2:20 hrs and they tender up to my liking then I sauce or rub again finish back on for about 10-15 mins perfect. I know my smoker I know my hot spots I know exactly what I am looking for and it's as consistent as can be never temp the meat ever. I read chat and watch blue ribbon winners can't recall one ever using a thermometer.

I've said a couple of times now too that smoking is totally different. Anything that's been smoked for hours at 230° is safe to eat. Doesn't make it good but it is a safe temperature.

That's totally different from grilling chicken where looking at the outside tells you nothing about the internal temperature - and that's the key to not serving food poisoning or relying on drying everything out.

Just finished prepping 2 pork shoulders and 16 racks of ribs. It all looks really good.

Set up my smoker too so I can just light it in the morning - all the prep is done so I have plenty of time.

30. It's my 40th birthday so thought I'd do something.

I've got a regular sized smoker and it's packed with ribs. That made it hard - my thermometer was underreading and I think it's just because there was stuff in the way - because of that I had the temp a bit high at the beginning but I think I got away with it. I've wrapped them in foil now to try and soften them up. I'm glad I bought some rib racks this week - gave me way more room. I'll use one regularly because it means I can get them all in the middle rather than having to rotate them away from the slightly hotter end.

I've got about an hour til folks arrive - just finished prepping chicken legs and spiral cutting hot dogs (well one of my kids is doing that) and there's a thunderstorm! It looks like it'll blow over so hopefully that's it for the evening.

The pork is on one end of my 6 burner gas grill - wrapped in foil and it seems to have stalled so I'm not sure how well it'll pull. The volume of meat just makes everything harder.

I need that grill for the chicken so I'm about to put it in a cooler and see what it does. It smells great so hopefully it's good - just below my target temp. It's got 20 minutes before I need the space!

Thankfully I spoke too soon - right after that the pork jumped 10° so it must have just been stalled. Half the chicken on now and the sun is shining.

Everybody gone - just have to tidy up now.

The only problem I had was too much food - got 6 racks of ribs and one of the pork shoulders left.

Didn't take any pictures as I was busy looking after food and now it's dark.
