Friday I had a big craving for beef ribs and I had never smoked them so I made it a mission to find some. I ventured to a local grocer downtown that sells all sorts of meat cuts. After talking to the owner and finding some ribs, I started on my way home. As I’m leaving a stoplight, a black Cadillac races up beside me and tries to cut in front of me and he clips his right rear quarter panel on my front left fender and a portion of my bumper. I look in my mirror, and here come 4 of our city police SUVs in hot pursuit. Well, that knocked me down a bit as we’re just coming off of Christmas and I really don’t want to spend money on my insurance deductible. I emailed my agent right away as it was after business hours and called 911 to get a police report. Our downtown cameras caught the whole thing so there’s no disputing it.
Anyway, back to the meat!
So I trim them Friday night and put into the fridge uncovered. Saturday morning rolls around and I get the WSM rolling and rub the ribs with S,P,O,G.
I get the smoker up to around 280-300 and throw the ribs on. The first couple hours the smoker sits at 240-260. Then I start spritzing with 50/50 apple cider vinegar and water. I then jack the WSM up to 280 after about 4 hours. I did this for about an hour an then wrapped for hour 5-6 at around 300. I pull the ribs off and they probe about 206 and the probe has little to no resistance.
All in all I wouldn’t change a thing and I think they turned out great!
Sorry for the long post, if you made it this far!
