Doing 8 racks of baby ribs this weekend and was wondering about the foiling stage, Im guessing as its only a braising stage that i can wrap them together say in bundles of four to make it a little easier then of course separating them back out for the final sauce stage?

They come frozen in a 10 Kg box for 34.99. The ratio of meat to bone is much higher than in supermarket ribs - 2 ribs from a rack are usually sufficient for a meal portion for most people.

For the 'Meaty Ribs' look for the yellow box. They also do baby back ribs in a blue box. They sell Pork Collars by the box as well, apparently good for Pulled Pork. Used the meaty ribs, but not tried the other two yet.
well i foiled all the baby ribs together in the end and foiled the meaty rib on its own, came out good and managed to rig up the pid control for its first use after a 8 hour panic late into friday night setting up the parameters
managed to keep the temps about +/- 5 degrees although i think a bit of gasket type sealing would help a lot here and also really not happy with these restaurant charcoals! ordered 4 bags of penfuels hog roast briquettes..OMG these are just the worst, terrible to light and have the heat output of a tealight..will be using these as a last resort on the bbq!, aussie heat beads arrived today so will give those a go at the weekend
few pics of the mods..
just to be clear the photo of the pid readout shows 3 and 11..seems to be something to do with the shutter speed on the camera and the frequency the pid display refreshes! its actually showing 113 and 115

im selling them at £50 each...
Just kidding, its a couple of different size cable glands that i managed to get the threads to fit each other and the bit sticking out of the lid is a purpose made coupler we use on the safety systems for virgin trains! they all just fitted together nicely and encapsulated the probe perfect, just one of those try it and see things, the washers are standard fibre type washers you get on engine drain plugs etc..again just fitted..not much help i know but to buy the bits and chuck most of the parts away would be about 25 quid
whats not shown in that prob pic is the probe is fed through plug first then the back of it does not fit through the back of the gland it jams againts it making it pretty smoke tight then another bell type top is screwed over the front of the gland which holds it all in tight..bit difficult to explain if you want to go down that route ill take some pics of the inside at the weekend but im guessing its pretty smoked over now, i plan to leave the probe in permanent unless it packs up of course, hence fitting it in the lid where it wont interfere with the grids and water bowl etc
