Now I gotta see the cabbage.
Ribs looks good.
I saw your pic labeled "earlier" and it reminded me. I ordered these inexpensive extension covers for when I use my Rec Tec in inclement weather.

Beautiful ribs Andrew, glad your enjoying your new cooker!
It all looks fantastic Andrew!!!
The cabbage takes longer than you think but yers looks KILLER!!! Now you’ve got me wanting some today...
Ok folks the cabbage is done. Tastes really good but I think I’d like to experiment with it more. I sliced it up and added a little more dirty bird.
Hope you enjoyed the show!
Edit: Great my last two pictures are giant again.
The cabbage looks great. I’ve tried a few different things with it. My favorite is to, cut it in half down the core or leave it whole. Then put it directly on the coals, caveman style. The half cooks in about 20-30 minutes and the whole is about an hour. Just cook until you can put a skewer through it fairly easily. Then scrape off the outer burnt leaves and serve with sauce of some sort. I have also tried coring it, stuffing the cabbage with a bacon, onion, bbq sauce mix and setting on the grill with indirect heat for about an hour or so. I haven’t tried smoking a whole cabbage but heard it can take 2-3 hours. Just go until it’s tender. I have tried shredding the cabbage along with carrots, celery and seasonings to make a slaw and smoked the tray. Took about 45 minutes and worked great served with pulled pork.
Core the cabbage, stuff it with butter and chopped up sausage, season, smoke for an hour, put it in a pan with a can of chicken or beef broth, foil and go 2 more hours. My traditional New Year’s day cook.
The dang cabbage is still not quite done. Here’s a pic of the ribs after slicing. They had a mild smoke flavor and were very good! I figured the smoke would be mild because I had cherry pellets in the cooker. Cherry is mild anyway, I’ll probably stick to the hickory pellets, but I wanted to experiment. The smoke flavor was definitely there and the only way I can describe it is a “clean” smoke flavor. Anyway I’ll get a pic of the cabbage when it finishes but it’s not gonna be as pretty as the ribs. :biggrin1:
