Got some country ribs at a marked down price at Sam's club yesterday. Rubbed them last night with a new rub i'm working on with the help of Richtee.

They've been in the smoker for 3 hrs at 230. I'm using hickory today. Sprizting every hr with a mix of 3 parts apple juice and 1 part Capt. Morgan. Ready for foiling.



They've been foiled with some of the spritz liquid for an hour now. Oh yeah! They are done! I tried to pick them up out of the foil and it fell apart. I've put them back in the smoker and cranked it up to firm them up a bit.
 
Mmmmmmm......
Looking really good.
So if the meat pulls off a little too easily rewrapping them and tossing them back into the heat will firm the meat up a bit? If I heard right and am on the same page then that is an absolutely amazing and handy little tip!
 
I did not rewrap them. I just couldn't pick them up to take them out of the foil so i folded it wide open and left it on the rack.

I don't know yet. They will be eaten in about an hour. I will post the taste test results later tonight.

We have to have a very early dinner today due to scheduling issues, more like linner. It's not really lunch, but too early for dinner.

I will say first of all that you have way more will power than I do...I would have eaten the first piece that broke off at a minimum! Have to make sure that it is good for the rest of the crew to eat!

SORRY!!! I had to wipe up the saliva from looking at those pics...

Nice work!
 
Ok, they got mixed reviews. The ribs themselves turned out excellent. Tender, juicy and falling apart.

The rub was a disappointment. Get this, my wimpy family asked me "Where's the zip?" I never expected them to ask for it.

I'll have to give some serious thought to what it needs. Oh well.

We slathered them with some Sweet Baby Rays and they disappeared.
 
Those look incedibly delectible...

I have a family pack in the freezer...for about a month...I was thinking of smoking 'em, now I'm gonna have too! I'm thinkin' lemon/rosemary rub (spicy/hot) and mesquite/hickory blend.

Thanks for sharing! Those look great!

well they look fantastic. I cant smell them or taste them but I am developing cancer from smoked meat just looking at them!! LMAO!!!
 
Anyone that would ask me "Where's the zip" would pay dearly next time. I like spicy food, but I try to keep it manageable for the family. The next time would be blazin'. I'd use my jerk seasoning rub & lights out!
 
Oh, it will definitely be zippier next time.

My family are a bunch of wimps, which means medium salsa is too hot. I've been slowly increasing the heat level of food without them knowing it. I think I've just gotten some successful test results back.
