Atty the way I do it is with indirect heat in the weber,I put a pan in the middle and build the fire on the long sides of the pan (be sure you put the grill handles over the fire so you can add more wood if needed)I rub the meat down real good with yellow mustard that seals the meat so it doesn't dry out then season it with sea salt fresh ground black pepper and garlic.I never wet my smoking wood because my books say that makes soot
Thank you!
I got pretty close, by luck and by golly:
Yellow mustard + Worcestershire
+ Spice/sugar/paprika rub
+ briquettes on one side, drip pan on other side under meat.
+ had some hickory so started with that and then made a run for apple wood chunks. Have one (dry) on there now.
+ shooting for 250F
Did one light mop on one side so far (apple juice + apple cider vinegar + spices and some sugar). Wondering if I should mop at all...but decided I'd take soft bark or no-bark as opposed to dried out rib-jerky.
Only been 3.5 hours so far.
