Above: Pork Ribs coming out of a slow oven with rough cut fresh garlic, sauerkraut, and a bit of your favorite BBQ sauce. We covered it with the glass lid- upper left.
Apple Wood Smoke
We set up the Weber like this:

We use the chimney method/no lighter fluid to start:

Slow ‘n Sear water bath separates the hot and cold sides of the grill.
Add about a quart of hot tap water. Do not fill all the way or it will slop on the coals when you wire brush the grill. Check water level and add more when needed when turning the meat.
Add some wood chunks to the charcoal when you dump the chimney.
Chilly Weather
We put the meat on for about 90 minutes for smoking, then took it inside to finish in a slow oven.
Somebody special made potato salad:
Late October 2025
Cut up one or more onions and place them on the bottom of the pan with a small amount of oil before adding the meat.




That looks amazing
Simple and fun. Used to enjoy going out to eat. Better for the food budget now to do it at home.
