Good morning, everyone! Long time reader, first time poster. Got my Masterbuilt vertical propane smoker in early August and have been smoking every week. Gotta say, I AM HOOKED!!!!! I have done baby back pork ribs, a butt, some brisket and sausage and for the most part, I am very pleased with the way everything has turned out.
Today, I am trying something new: beef ribs! Since I have never really looked at beef ribs in the store, not real sure how I did with my selection. Here is a pic of what I got:
To me, they look pretty good, a fair amount of meat and what I think is decent marbling. What do you folks think? Here they are rubbed:
And, just for grins and giggles, here is the brisket, about 7 lbs.
The brisket went in about 5:00 this morning and the temp is at 250. I am going to put the ribs in about 11:00. I do have a question about the rub, or quantity of rub. Does this look like too much rub or not enough? What are the pros and cons of using light rub, using a lot of rub, etc...
I am off to check on my brisket. I'll post some pics as they progress.
Thanks,
Lee
