Rib Smoke

[homebrew & bbq]

I'm smoking 6 racks of ribs today. Rubbed them with kosher salt and black pepper. My MES holds 4 racks at a time with some room for trimmings and a few brats. Half of the ribs will just get spritzed with apple juice during the smoke. I'm putting a mop on the others.

When the first round is done the last 2 racks will go in with the rest of the trimmings, a couple of fatties and some ABTs.

Here's the Q-view about an hour and a half in.

Look's like a good start!

Probe in rib's???

The last time I did ribs some of them ended up really dry and chewy so I thought I would try using the probe to keep a closer eye on the temp.

The ribs tasted fine, not great, but there were no complaints.

The reason I decided to go with such a "plain" rub was we are trying out a couple of new sauces (SoFlaQuer's and a KC Masterpiece clone) and didn't want to have a rub that conflicted with the sauces.
