Baby back's last night turned out perfect w/ Qview

[aneura]

Hello everyone!

I tried something a little different than I normally do yesterday and wanted to share the result.  These were by far the best baby back’s I’ve made or had elsewhere.

Meat:

3 racks of baby backs trimmed up and silver skin removed

Prep (in order):

Yellow mustard

Jeff’s rub & my rub mixed 50/50

Light dusting of dark brown sugar

Agave nectar

(all rubbed in)

Smoke:

Pitmasters’s Choice and Apple (75/25 blend respectively) A-MAZE-N-PELLETS

Cooking:

Preheated the MES40 to 275

Put the ribs on the 2 center racks for an hour

After an hour I dropped the temp to 225

No foil, no juice, etc.

Spritzed with Jack Daniels Honey Whisky every so often

Pulled off the smoker after 6 hours

Rested for 45 minutes under a foil tent

(They were hard to move they were so tender)

Result:

Tender & juicy w/o any ‘mush’ at all. Clean bones with no effort.

Sweet & savory bark with a nice smoke flavor through the meat without being too strong.

Wow...those look great. But 6 hours for BBs seems to be a long time. I usually go 2-1-1 and they turn out great.
