Pork Country Ribs 25 pounds for New Years

[smokincasper]

All ready to go in the morning 25 pounds of pork country ribs, MBE 40 smoker going to use apple chips with a last hour of cherry wood chips. Used mustard base with smoky paprika, pink Himalayan salt, Bourbon infused brown sugar mixed into a bowl of Stubb's  pork spice rub Overnight in fridge...

I am doing 225 degrees for 4 - 5 hours for an internal temp of 175 - 180.

Will finish half of ribs with Sweet Baby Rays sauce and half plain old wood smoke (my favorite) in foil with a mop base of Apple cider/Apple juice/Butter.

Here is what they look like now

Did 8lbs of these last weekend.  PHENOMENAL.  I did them on the 3-2-1 method and the meat was juicy and fell of the bones.  Needless to say they didn't last too long :)

Great CarolinaDoug, the last ones I did were not "fall of the bone" as I went to 165 then pulled them they were like 1 tug bite I must try the 3-2-1 method Got any Pics

Great Start !!

I think you might want to rotate the racks after awhile.

 Since you're using all the racks, your bottom racks will get done earlier.

Then Check them with an instant-read Therm as you remove them, making sure each one is at least 145° IT.

I've had them already at one point that one was 178°IT, and others were below 130° IT.

Just FYI,

Great thought Bear the bottom rack is so close to the heat source I will do that

I never use the bottom Rack because of that, but you don't have much choice with all those pieces of CSRs.
