The menu on Sunday was:
Smoked spare ribs
Beer can Chicken
ABT - First Try
Scalloped Potatoes
Layered lettuce salad
Bottle of Red French Wine - Can't remember the name (go figure)
Didn't do anything special on any of the meat. Just a basic rub and smoke with hardwood charcoal and some cherry wood.
I just realized I don't have any pictures of the spare ribs after I took them off the smoker.
Just have to take it at my word they were delicious.
Some comments from me: I didn't wrap the ribs or anything. Just rubbed them put on the smoker at 230 degrees for about 6 hours until meat was pulling from the bone. I did spritz them a couple of times with a combination apple juice and Blackberry brandy mix. They had a great crust and the meat was juicy and falling off the bone. Used some of Jeff's BBQ sauce. That stuff is very good.
Chicken was very good but didn't hold a candle to the ribs.
ABT's - These were the first I have ever fixed or eaten. All I can say is, "we will be buying a lot of Jalepeno peppers in the future". Absolutly fantastic. Was surprised at the difference in heat from one ABT to another.
