Oxtail and ribs

[BrianGSDTexoma]

2nd cook on Rec Tec 590 and very happy with it. Using Lumberjack to start than going to compare to my Smokehouse and B&B pellets I got. Wasn't sure about the 3 vent holes but seem to work good. Oxtail was tender but kinda of stringy. Not sure my thing. Ribs where really good and great color. Better color than my WSM or MES. Polenta was really good.

Looks good, what do you mean by Stringy?
Sinew? or did it need cooking longer

Oxtail seemed tender but was chewy. Dont really know how to explain really.

They may have needed a bit longer to cook or a good braise. I sometimes smoke them and then put in chili, can't say I've ever found them chewy. Looks like a fine meal!

I gonna put into pressure cooker. Might use them to make those stuffed biskets someone posted.
