First Bacon on a Stick

[Bearcarver]

First I saw this Disco!!!   Looks Outstanding.

Basically similar to my Bacon-on-A-Stick, except I Dry cure mine, and I don't glaze it.

I treat mine more like my Bacon on the surface, although yours looks Fantastic with the glaze on it.

I remember telling you to try Bacon-on-A-Stick------I knew you'd love it !!!  It's definitely my favorite Ribs!!

BTW: I've had 2 racks of Spares in my freezer waiting for me to turn them into Bacon-on-A-Stick, but I'm having trouble scheduling it in between Dr Apts, Family stuff, etc, etc.  Hopefully within the next week or two!!!

Bear, Bear, Bear. Sigh. Family, Doctors, etc getting in the way of smoking? You need a priority check.

Just kidding. Take care of yourself and get smoking when you can.

I think I will try a savoury herb rub next time I make this.

Thanks. I hope you like them.

I think back to my first successful pulled pork and JJ, Seen Red, Kat and many others walked me through it. Then I look at my favourite recipes, pulled ham, beef sticks, pastrami, double smoked ham and they all come from people like Pops, Bear, Case, Todd. This site has given me a lot of joy, not to mention great food!

Thanks, Kev.

Sadly, there is only one cure. Get smoking! Even better, smoke and post!

Thank you so much for trying this, Disco!  Smoking with wood does a partially good job; the nitrites from the wood smoke 'cures' the ribs (the 'smoke ring') to some extent; a fact I noticed several times doing ribs for family, so, what the heck, finish the job and try curing them to begin with!  It just completes the process and heightens the ham-type flavor.  I don't soak the ribs after brining, but also use a lo-salt cure now, too.  The soaking would further cut down on the salt concentration so anyone with salt sensitivity it is a perfect thing to do!  Absolutely great job and wonderful glaze recipes and please give my best regards to your wonderful wife!

What kind words Pops! I feel like I have been given kudos from the Professor of Smoke!

Many thanks for all the guidance you give on this form.

Thank you for the kind words, I'm just amazed to be alive and so grateful for this wonderful SMF forum and being able to share what knowledge I have with everybody!  Between all of us here, from the newest of newbies to the oldest of old hands... uh.. maybe "most experienced" sounds better, lol!... we all are able to contribute and do it with kindness, generosity and total respect for each other!  This is what makes us stand far apart, and far greater, than other forums.  I am so humbled to have such opportunity to serve all others on here and to make a difference in everyone's lives!  Jeff is The Smoke Whisperer and Storyteller on here, the Founder of this GREAT FORUM and he deserves the kudos for keeping us in check, lol!  He is amazing!  

I had to edit this to include a promise I made to a couple people who are no longer here; Ron P. and Beer-B-Q.  We were in chat one night and I was a newbie and was yakking and yakking and was reminded to "under promise and over deliver" to everyone on here and put on your humble hat every time you start typing.  It took me quite a while to understand what that meant and got into many 'altercations' to prove I was right, when the right thing to do was to see a bigger picture and realize what our goal is - to help everyone -  every  one!   And, I know now where that direction came from, and am trying to fulfill it.  Thank you, Jeff!

Good point Pops. The only thing better than good food and good times is sharing good food and good times.
