I made the soup. Turned out awesome. I added carrots, potatoes, onions, tomatoes, corn, all locally sourced, close to home or on our travels. Just needed some seasoning salt. I just had to have a cup right away. The rest I portioned for lunches.

My ribs, I think I under sauced them, they came out a little dry. But still yummy enough to over-eat with potato salad.

The soup sounds yummy. I will be making the stock using my carcasses today and then portion freeze for use at a later date.

I find ribs are touchy when it comes to smoking them, they usually turn out fall off the bone tender but if you smoke them for just a smidgen too long they dry right up so I watch them closely.

I made 8 racks of ribs yesterday. I am trying to stock up on smoked meat before it gets too chilly outside.

This is the perfect time of year to get out and use your smoker while doing you fall yard work!

We have a supply of smoked chicken, pork, beef and turkey in the freezers already!

I smoked 4 packs chicken thighs, 3 racks pork ribs, some Italian sausage, almonds, cheddar and mozza.

I might pack away my smoker for the winter in the basement. But now it is warming up I am thinking of smoking else. Our temp was -15C forover a week.
