I use a lot of foil, those ribs will smoke like that.  I usually smoke stuff right in the grill grates first, then wrap it to finish it, then unwrap to smoke a little more. Except burgers and chicken, I don't use foil at all for them. 

My former know-it-all brother in law used to cover his entire gas grill with foil to cook hamburgers. Of course by the time they were cooked they were swimming in grease, so he might as well have fried them on the stove in a skillet. I only use wood and charcoal, never had a gas grill, and the grease dripping onto the coals makes more smoke and more flavor.

There's a hickory tree in the edge of the woods right by the yard here that's been cut down. It's just laying there, I guess they cut it down for some reason when they put the house here. 

I'm working on cutting it up, I've been cutting "slices" off of it about 2" thick, so maybe I'll be able to split it. I'm going to put the pieces in the shed and use it to smoke with.

That's a great looking smoker, it's kind of like the old gas or electric stove smokers, only better!

I ad almost the same load going 120 miles three weeks ago. Only difference was a bucket instead of the miller head.  Put the front chain and binder on, than boss called and distracted me. Jumped in truck and left.

120 miles later I pulled into the job to see the chains and binders laying on the deck, next to my 3/4 full cup of coffee. 

And nothing moved. When loaded, I do not go over 45 mph.

nah. just safe. 

WAY too many brain dead steering wheel holders out there rolling over three -four trucks every day just in my state alone.

i am a right lane runner.

in 54 years driving i have had 1 ticket for not coming to a full stop at a stop sign when i was 18, and 4 accidents...none of which were my fault.

at 45 i have to deal with all the askwholes doing 90+ in a 55 zone weaving between all 3 lanes like a nascar driver 2 laps down on the last lap. 

i was never a speeder, because i never worked for percentage, by the ton,  or by the load.
i get paid hourly. if the contractor tells me i need to go faster i give him my paperwork and tell him to sign me out.  i learned a long long long time ago slow and steady wins the race.
guys get loaded and speed away. than stop for 1/2 hour each load. than speed back to the job. at the end of the day they say I have to be speeding because they are always 10-15 mph over the speed limit, but i do one or two loads more than them. but the job supers know better.
