LPJR Posted September 30, 2022 Share Posted September 30, 2022 Decided to go with a pellet smoker from Tractor Supply a couple weeks ago and made a rack of ribs last night on it. Wanted a smoker that was basically self sufficient. This was simple to use, only adding pellets when necessary. Ribs were cooked until internal temp hit 195 degrees. Started them at 1800 hours last night and took them off at 0030 hours. Used Kansas City dry rub to start and Sweet Baby Rays to finish them in the last hour. The smoke ring was good and the caramelized BBQ sauce was on point. Came fully assembled and cannot beat the price at $199.00. Looking forward to using it again now that I saw how easy it was. Thanks to @Haskell_Hunterfor the tips. electricstart, Tarhunt, DonW and 19 others 19 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once a good smoke set in I set the grill at 220°. It maintained 220-225 consistently throughout the smoke. I only raised it to 250° in the last 30 minutes. not on the rug, megavites and Jcol6268 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Integracingsr Posted September 30, 2022 Share Posted September 30, 2022 Looks good, Lou. Since you've recently retired, it's a good way to pass some time. LPJR 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hunter115522 Posted September 30, 2022 Share Posted September 30, 2022 Looks good Lou. I'm new to pellet grilling/smoking and I'm loving it. I've done a couple briskets, snack sticks, ribs, chicken, etc. My next project will be short ribs. An FYI about pellets.. Check your local Target. I found 20lb bags on clearance for the end of season for $2.50. They are normally about $15 I believe. LPJR 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
