First Pork Ribs today

[woodcutter]

I want to say how appreciative I am to everyone on SMF for all the knowledge I have gained since joining. I made these ribs today with nothing but the info I picked up on reading different threads.

I did the 3 2 1 method and used Chef Jimmy's foiling juice which is out of this world.

Those look absolutely awesome. Getting ready to smoke my first ribs soon and will have to look up that foiling juice. Sounds like 321 method is the way to go. I'm going to throw some big baked potatoes in there too.

3-2-1 is the best for ribs to me! Looks yummy!

Woodcutter, they look absolutely perfect! Glad you liked the Foiling Juice. I tried a couple of other things in the foil and the family yelled at me for messing around with what they think is perfect...JJ

Oak seems to have a mellow flavor that IMHO mixes well with just about anything. It does not have the apple taste but I would say apple wood is the closest to compare it to.

Red oak is the best. Seems to burn longer than White oak. Try mixing it with Cherry wood if you have some. Great mix.

Nice job on the ribs.

I cut a bunch of cherry into small blocks this fall. Next year I'll be ready........ Thanks

I agree with your family! Your energy is only wasted trying to improve this recipe. (When I was putting the butter in I knew I would like it)

 Thank you, I would recommend the 321 method and Chef Jimmy's foiling juice. Good luck!
