I purchased a Traeger about 7 months ago and so far have really used it more for basic grilling other than a couple of whole fryers a few months ago. I decided to take a shot at some ribs and wanted to get some feedback from everyone here. I welcome all feedback!! I used Jeff's Rub and really enjoyed the flavor. I would like a little more Memphis style rub, so any suggestions as to how to accomplish that would be great. I used a 2.5-2-1 method and to be honest here I would have liked the ribs to be a tad less tender. They were pull the bone out tender, and were very moist.
Coated with Mustard and covered with Jeff's Rub.
Meat side coated and rubbed.
After the first 2.5 hours at 225!!!
I read a post somewhere here about doing this instead of using apple juice or similar. It just sounded like a better way to me so I went with it. Its just rub and real crème butter.
I didn't take any pictures after the foil, but the boss came out and took these before I pulled them. Total smoke time roughly 5.75 hours at 225.
I think they turned out really good. Like I said up top, I just would have liked them to be a little less tender. Overall, very pleased with the end result. Feedback appreciated!! Tips, tricks, different methods all welcome!!!!! Thank you for checking out my latest!!!!!
