Gameday Ribs

[mcokevin]

A friend of mine and I were joking about a virtual rib cook off for the Steelers/Chiefs game today. I wasn't planning to actually smoke ribs today, but yesterday my brother called. He is coming in to Orlando for work, and due to a forecast snow storm in PA he moved his flight earlier, so he'll be coming over for dinner and the Steeler game today. Luckily he called yesterday while I was at Publix (picking up stuff for burgers to grill for my wife's brother and his family who were in town visiting yesterday) so I decided to throw a couple racks of spares in the cart.

On the 1050 a few minutes ago at 225 and rolling hickory. Also my first time running with any of the LSS mods, got the water pan and manifold cover on. Turns out my aluminum pans are too deep to use the drip pan brackets on this one. Left the top shelf in because I "might" be putting some chicken on during the rib smoke for our lunches this week...we'll see what the wife decides

I'll post some finished pics later, if I remember.

Yes sir off and running!
That 1050 looks KLEAN and let us know how you like the mods

Sauced a bit ago. Getting closer. And the verdict from the wife was thighs on for lunches this week.

Pulled - all good eating. Not the best racks ever but certainly not the worst! Great flavor, but at $5.99/lb not too happy with the quality of the meat.
But everyone was happy, and nothing a cold beer can’t fix.

Looks good to me ! Great color and pull back .

If the eaters don't complain, you have done well.
After tending my smoker all day, I often lose my appetite.

Do you pull the membrane on the inside? The membrane is not porous to smoke
I have been putting a lot of thought into vertical rib rack holders.
Stopped at Publix yesterday and they had spares at $4.99 or a whole dollar off.

Those ribs look pretty darn good to me!
I have been getting my ribs from WildForkFoods, instead of Publix.
Much better quality, and they have BB’s without that big chunk of loin meat on them. Just did a rack on Friday!

I’ve been really happy with everything I’ve got from there. Will have to try the ribs next.
