hey all,
this is actually from 3 weeks ago but i haven't had time to post this till now.
I had some ribs in the fridge that i wanted to smoke but the weekend got the best of me so i started these around 2pm on sunday. no certain occasion just wanted to smoke! it had been awhile. so i got 2 racks and rubbed them with a McCormicks Applewood rub i had bought and wanted to try. rubbed them down and let get to room temp as i heated up the smoker (usually i rub and wrap overnight but i didnt have the time).
got the smoker up to 225-230 and a nice blue line of smoke (yes i needed to mow my lawn, you can see my broken lawnmower)
smoked them for 2 hours and wrapped for another 2. i took a tip from Chris Lilly and put some apple and grape juice in the foil. after 2 hours on the smoke they already looked great! but put them back on the smoker to harden back up for 30 mins. i took the drippings from the foil and put them in a sauce pan and cooked down for a moping sauce.
over all turned out good...the apple wood rub was a little salty...my mistake for using a store bought rub. here is some QView
Closeup!
And the final product...
