Brethren,
I am in the middle of a cook, as usual. Pork ribs and butt today!
So my relatively new Johnson T smoker has a baffle under the cooking grill. when the grease drips on that it smokes. If I keep temps inder 275 ish it’s not too bad but at the outset of this cook, the smoke coming out was smelling like a fast food restaurant rather than wood. I wasn’t happy. I lowered temp.
BUT… any opinions on the flavor that hot grease on a baffle imparts? Does it farq up a smoke ring? Any solutions?
I’m about 4 hours in and just shaved off a bit of an end on the ribs and it was good. So maybe not an issue. But… what do you think?
