Treat 'em as grill fodder rather than smoker fodder. Even when I did smoke
them, I think 3 hours was the most I ever went. I could be wrong as I'm
gettin' a little long in the tooth.
I do like them smo-grilled opposite the coals in a Weber Kettle for a couple
hours. They'll have teeth to them but they will be tender enough to enjoy.
I eat 'em plain off the grill, but I can see where this one would be a good
dipper in a sauce.
