Birthday Ribs...

[Gonna Smoke]

...for my sister, she turns 60something tomorrow.... I'd like to grill steaks, but since her and her husband like their steak BURNT and eat it with ketchup, I'm not grilling steaks, just can't bring myself to do that . She loves fried fish, but I don't have any. So I looked in the freezer and there they were...2 racks of St. Louis ribs, now I have a plan.

Decided to smoke them today. Got my Ok. Joe fired up with some hickory and seasoned the ribs with Famous Dave's Rib Rub. Smoker leveled out around 275℉ and put them on about 11:30 this morning. Mixed up a pan of Dutch's Wicked Baked Beans, they'll go on the smoker around 3:00, bowl of coleslaw, and corn on the cob from last year...

My wife bought a cake for dessert. We'll have a small crowd of around 10 here tonight and the plan is to eat around 6:00 or so.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY to my baby sister...

We do the same thing.Shrink wrap a ton of native stuff especially the silver queen since I can digest it.

Happy birthday to Sis. And I’m surprised you have no fish. Great meal with those ribs and fixings though.

Nope, they are my go-to especially if I'm running a smoker, but still good in the oven...

I usually blanch and vac seal around 200 ears a year when corn is ready. I help break the corn and get some free for helping...

Thanks Eric! It's funny about the fish, I just don't keep much in the freezer because I get to fish so much, but usually the fish belongs to my charter clients anyway. I need to go fishing for myself sometime...

Great party meal Charles
60ish sister trying to blur her age?

I've got friends that do the same. They definitely don't get an aged prime ribeye from me.

Sounds perfect to me!! Yeah if anyone asks me to burn their steak well done, sorry I can't do that is my answer! Hahaha!!

Happy Birthday to your sister! Nice meal you made for her. I know what you mean about the steak. I used to have a few family members who liked theirs burnt and sauces. I used to just buy round steak for them while the rest of us had ribeye or filets lol.
