Smoking a Rack of Pork

[ericram]

Got an awesome deal on a rack on pork from Costco. Going to smoke on Kamado. Thinking 225 for 4 hours should do it. Want it to be at internal temp of 145°.

Any suggestion/recommendations?

Thanks!

DSF is probably the best residential smoker other than maybe the two who do it on bbq circuit. I do it but nowhere as often so I’d trust his advice.

225 for 4 hours should do it. If your temps fluctuate between 200 and 225, a total of 4 1/2 to 5 might be what your looking at to reach internal temp, depending on thickness.

Thanks. That is what I am thinking. Apple wood?

I enjoy a hickory / apple mix for pork.

I just lit the cooker and put both apple and hickory in.

Much better if you boil them. Get some stock in addition to your ribs. Just sayin

Ended up taking 4 hours at 225°.
