Ribs and Bologna on the 26 with the SnS

[gmc2003]

Well, who knew you didn't need a cold one to Q correctly. Wife was in the mood for some ribs tonight. So rather then try and talk her into a PB&J sandwich. I totally caved, and picked up a nice rack of St. Louis style ribs. Holy cow 17.00 for one rack. I almost pooped myself in the store.

....and away we go!!!

Ribs sprinkled with just kosher salt and pepper. I still had one slice of bologna left over from yesterday. So why not smoke it up. Here it is seasoned with Tony C's.

On to the 26 burning coals and some hickory chunks.

Flip the bologna

and it's finished. The Bologna that is.

The bend test it telling me it's almost time. It's pretty tricky taking an almost selfie while trying not to drop the ribs. The beer pole feels abandoned.

Since these were the wife's request. On goes the sauce. (At least one of use got sauced during this cook. To bad it was the ribs)

And they're done.

Plated shot:

Almost forget the bologna. Lunch for Monday. Spinach and smoke Creole bologna. I suppose I can call it Creole since it's seasoned with Tony C's

Thanks for taking a peak

Those ribs look perfect . I really need to do some bologna . Dad used to grill it direct and sauce it on the grill . Man it's good .
I also need to uncover my 26 .
Nice cook , why no beer ?

Appreciate it Rich and for the like. The only issue with the ribs was the membrane. I usually leave it on and it's not a problem. This one seemed thicker then most. The bologna was real good. Not much of a smoke flavor, but maybe it was Tony's covering it up. I was going to sauce the bologna up too, but since it will be microwaved tomorrow I decided not to. Glad I didn't. No beer - well the grandson was over at the house this afternoon, and I decided to play it safe. Then when he left I didn't really feel like one.

He's just starting to walk upright and gets into a bunch of stuff quickly. So until he can really understand what I'm saying I don't want to risk him taking a sip or spilling it.

Your right David, the beer pole was just a shadow of itself today. Thanks for the kind words and like - even if you don't like spinach. I'm the same way with schrooms - so I fully understand.

I've always eaten certain veggies raw rather then cooked. Broccoli(although now I'll eat it cooked), colliflower, carrots, and turnup to name a few.

Looks awesome Chris!! The price of ribs this year has been insane. I finally scored spares for $1.79 / lbs a Kroger a few weeks back. Bought 7 for the freezer lol.

Looks like a home run to me Chris, nice cook! Man that 26 has some real estate to cook on!

Beer or no beer that's one fine lookin' rack-o- ribs Chris, Like! Good job on keeping a eye out for the rug rat, plenty of time for a brewster or two while they are on their way back home. Of course when they're spending the night they are grandmas responsibility, I reckon. I've never made a lot of grandad points, kids always got all snotty when I'd plop the little rat on my lap and giving him a sip of Rolling Rock. I'd tell them it ain't my fault is he grows up to be a sissy. Haven't seen any of them in years now. I wonder why? RAY
