So we have our weber smokey mountain and were smoking this weekend.I just ordered a maverick Et 733 and it will be here sunday right in the middle of smoking (forgot to order it earlier).I'm looking for any and all advise to make our first day smoking a success.We have seasoned Costco ribs and chicken thighs in the freezer we thought we would use.We are also going to get a Butt.We were thinking the ribs on the lower rack and butt and thighs on the upper?It seems the minion method is what most do.I would think the ribs and thighs would be done long before the Butt.So how do you set it up so your eating all the food at the same time?? Does the rub go on the day before?? should I use a pan and tinfoil cover to collect juice or straight on rack? How many hours?? Do you have "the best"rub recipe you may or may not want to give up.Anything else I should know? As you can see I am a total noob and hoping to learn from your experience...Thanks
Edit: were using kingsford competition briquettes.We have weber mesquite wood chips and not really sure how to use them
