Going Places thank you for checking this out!!

1st very nice pit. Love it. I gave a big thumbs up on this one. I agree with you on the 2,2,1. That is a perfect guide for babybacks. They just dont need that extra hour like spare or st louis. Take care brother.

D's Que Backyard BBQ thank you for the huge compliment. Keep on smoking brother!!

[@NoisyLittleCampers]

Great job. I hope to actually meet you some day. Since your part of this close cruise community I'm glad there is that chance.

TomBeetle Bailey that would be awesome!!

[@jeffreydaniel6795]

Those ribs look phenomenal. I like idea of the onion.

[@luvysfatlife]

They were pretty darn good!

Luvy, did u start the smoker with a coal base , then add the splits wood. Also how much did u open the damper. Thanks

[@luvysfatlife]

George Watson hey man...hope you are well. Yes, my cooker now is a vertical smoker. The damper is all the way open and I have a large heat shield elevated 3-4 inches above that for air flow. I use to own a 30x70 reverse flow. I used the warmer so much I sold it and had Tyler build me this first vertical smoker on a trailer. I use about 1/4 of a bag of charcoal to start and then add small splits to keep it at 250. Thank you for checking out!!

[@georgewatson3167]

Luvy was going on, at your leisure please do a video on how to manage your heat from the firebox to the smoker. I really enjoyed a past video of a cook u did were u informed how many splits were used for the cook. Also the temperature gauge u r using thanks again

[@luvysfatlife]

George Watson hey man. We are in the works on creating a video on top five things for a new owner of a pit. Managing fire is one of them. Thank you for checking this video out. Try this method on baby back ribs. They were killer!!

[@luvysfatlife]

George Watson I have a video on the Maverick 732. Check out my food playlist. I love that temp probe.

[@rrocha1981rr]

On that vertical smoker we’re you like to cook more, lower middle or upper rack?

[@luvysfatlife]

I like to keep it in the middle the most. Each have their advantage. One caution is the top rack and NOT covering or blocking the air flow. I did that once with several pans stacked and it stalled it out until I corrected.

Looks absolutely delicious!

[@georgewatson3167]

Luvy at your convenience could u please give a demonstration on how you maintain 250-270 degree on your vertical smoker on the Shirley. The reason for the request my order with Shirley Fabrication is some what similar to yours thanks

[@luvysfatlife]

That would be a great video. Let me see what I can do in the next couple of weeks.

[@TRAVELWITHNlCK]

These look so good!

[@luvysfatlife]

Thank you!

[@TravelKiwi]

they look amazing!!! would love to try them!!!

[@bwsparksjr1]

Those ribs look good. I love ribs.

[@geoffoutdoors]

I dumped the 3-2-1 method forever....I am all 2-2-1....no reason to smoke ribs for 6hrs. The tinfoil cover keeps all the good stuff in

[@luvysfatlife]

Great point! I’ve personally became a baby back rib fan and they cook less time as well. Thank you for watching.

[@sealot2420]

Was going along with this until i heard applying margarine. No how, no way. Nasty stuff...

[@luvysfatlife]

Sealot thanks for watching. This is what many on the bbq circuit use for that one bite taste in contest. You can substitute that with real butter or mayo. If you want healthier, there are other options.
