Baby Back Ribs: Q-View

[illini40]

Good afternoon

It has been some time since I smoked ribs, and we are doing our best to clean our freezers. So, a three pack of Costco baby backs are up today.

All three racks got a light dusting of Killer Hogs AP rub, followed up by Killer Hogs The BBQ Rub.

Traeger is set at 250*, running hickory pellets.

A look at about 1.5 hours in, after a quick spritz with some black cherry sparkling water (what I had handy). Next up is wrapping here in a bit.

In the meantime, got a batch of vanilla ice cream going.

Which do I want see more....the ribs or ice cream pics? Ha, looks awesome!

After 2.5 hours in the smoke, at 250*, time to get wrapped. Into foil with some butter, brown sugar, a light spritz, and some BBQ rub. They are looking good, but temping a little ahead of the time table I was thinking. I’m thinking about an hour in foil, and then unwrapped back on with some sauce. Depending on how fast they are moving along, may drop the temp when they go back on with the sauce, to just hang out a little.

Before getting flipped and wrapped:

Wrapped up and tucked back in:

Oh, and ice cream is still cruising along as well. It has been going for a little over an hour.

Well it looks like the only help that you're going to need from me is eating them. I'm in for the finish....

After about an hour and fifteen minutes wrapped, the racks are looking good. Seeing some good pull back and feeling tender. Hit them with a light glaze of sauce and back on, unwrapped.

Oh, and we pulled the ice cream. Looks excellent. It’s into the freezer to firm up just a little, for dessert.

Alright, the ribs were very tasty, and the ice cream was my favorite batch that we’ve made so far.

Total cook time for ribs was right at about five and half hours. Traeger was set at 250* the entire time. They were very tender and bit off clean. They were not fall apart, but essentially FOTB, which is what I was shooting ckr
