They look great, I use to do them hot and fast all the time, been slacking myself but think you have prodded me to make a rack or 2. Hope your on the mend.

Glad you finally got to try them Al... I too was blown away with how well they turned out... I like mine just dry rubbed so they get the crispy/crunchy bark... Charlotte likes hers suaced so I do them half and half...

Glad to hear you overcome the health issues... I know the feeling... Been out of work since Feb 4th with issues, But all is well now... Back to work Tue. Really not looking foward to it as I was enjoying "semi retirement".. 2.5 years to go for full retirement...



I have to totally agree with this... I can do them in the middle of the week now after work...
Thanks Keith!
It really does make ribs easy & quick, with IMHO better flavor & juiciness.
And with bark all the way around it is a flavor bomb!
Al
those look awesome. would never think to try. I have a hard time trimming slabs to fit on my 18.5
Thank-you, they are really easy to slice up, I think you will like the results!
Al
Nice Al . Yup , those are the good ones . Starting to see them more around here .
Thanks for posting , and feel better bud .
Thanks Rich!
Got some more ideas for the next batch!
Al
Those look killer! Glad things are looking up for you!
Thank you!
Appreciate it!
Al
Looks fantastic. I did some babybacks on the smoker this way except I wrapped each of them in bacon. Took longer than an hour, but were very good and surprised me too.
Thank you!
I was thinking of trying the bacon on a few of them next time!
Al
Those sure look great Al and love some Killer Hogs flavor!
Don't have a kettle or vortex but gotta 'em in individual cuts.
Glad you feeling better and stay away from the white coats😆.

Keith
Thanks Keith!
Yea I know, once they get a hold of you, it’s test after test.
Al
I don't have a vortex, but I have a rack of baby backs going on the kettle today. Maybe it's time to do singles 🤔
Yes Sir, definitely give it a try.
I agree. Tried it myself and am sold. So much easier, faster and tastier. Yours look great Al. Nice work.
Thanks Bro, I think the kettle will be getting a workout this summer!
Al
Still the innovator Al. Rib looks good.

Wishing you and Judy good health.
Thank you, and wishing everyone good health!

Very nice ribs Al! I would have gobbled them up quick!
Thank you!
That’s exactly what we did!
Al
Al those look great, and looks like you and the Misses enjoyed them.

I love doing fast singles , or even slow singles.
More realestate to cover with rub etc.

Hope you are feeling better Al.

David
Thanks David!
I can’t believe it took me this long to try this!
We haven’t ate a whole rack of ribs in a long time, but we sure woofed these down!
Al

Thanks Mike, I’m doing fine. Just haven’t had an appetite & if you’re not hungry, cooking isn’t much fun. But those BB’s sure tasted good!
Al
You nailed them Al. So glad you tried them. The only way I do them anymore. The sauce sets up so good like this. Prayers sent to getting healthy.
Thanks Brian, between you & Keith, I just had to do it. Never going back!
Al
Al, the ribs look fantastic, but I must say, it's great to see you back posting cooks. I've missed that...
Thanks Charles, it felt good to put up a thread again.
Al
They sure look good!
Thanks Tex!
