Ribs

[Smokey Lew]

The ribs look great!! When you're cooking ribs on the WSM, what wood are you using for smoke? I've had some problems with very strong tasting smoke on my WSM. I've just started smoking and I'm interested in seeing what others use in their WSMs for fuel and smoke.

Apple wood is my favorite, I also like red oak but have to rely on friends to get it for me so I use it sparingly, usually on beef.
I use Kingsford as fuel because its easy to get. We have alot of mesquite lump here but I don't care for it. There are a couple of other brands of lump I want to try but have to wait till spring to get it since the stores don't stock it in winter. I guess they think people don't use their grills in winter here in San Diego.

Hey thanks for the info. I used to live in El Cajon years ago. There used to be a couple of good rib places out that way as I remember. Go Chargers!!

Thanks again, Smokey Lew
