Kind of a crappy day today, so good time to get some BB Q going. Took lots of q-view.

Dropped a couple slabs over to a buddy and the guys at work will get some

. Did 6 slabs, around 17 lbs.

I was poking around the forum and came across a thread about pulling the membrane off. It worked out great, so thanks and credit to the guys for posting great info. Here's a couple pics.

. Very happy with them. Juicy and as tender as you can get without actually falling apart off the bone.


Finished!!

Those look great. Out here on the west coast I've got two racks going right now in my brinkman water smoker on a rainy/crappy day too. The cool daty has kept the temp down so I'm leaving them in a bit longer than normal.

My camera is MIA, otherwise I'd post pix too. I hope mine turn out as great as yours. Happy smokin!
 
Outstanding ribs!! I could almost taste them

Dave, those ribs look really good. I'm going to try my next batch like yours. I like the taste of Bull's Eye BBQ sauce also. Thanks for the great Q-view and the pics about removing the membrane.

Great rib smoke

. I'm having some fun with this stuff. My girl thinks I'm a little nuts with the pictures..lol. My buddy called and said they were the best he's had and the boys at work are going to enjoy a few slabs for lunch.

It's a toss up for me whether or not I prefer BBs or spares

. There is a lot less fat and waste with BBs, less meat too, but what's there is much leaner. I paid $2.98 (usual price at the wholesale clubs) for these vs $189 for spares. I'm leaning towards the BBs. Opinions?
 
Great job Dave!

Those look absoutly wonderful. My personal pref is the BB. Yes they cost more, but...I just like em better...
 
your right next door from me, im in amherst. so whats for dinner next sunday, ill bring the beer
