Ribs vs. Mother Nature

[jaxgatorz]

So Forecast looked good enough for a 8am start on some ribs today.. But this is Florida

A few clouds....

Ribs about an hour in....

And then the sky started to get ugly.....

The smell of rain is in the air... Time for a quick roll into the garage....

More pics of the ribs as it goes ( and maybe some more weather pics too )

Good luck! Hopefully the ribs beat out mother nature

Ah hell, an ol'pro like you, your ribs will be great regardless.
I'm watching for the finale.

Lil rain never hurt my cooks, and I know how the weather can change, seems like minute to minute sometimes.
I just throw a cookie sheet atop my smoker to cover the vent and keep rolling.

3 1/2 hours in...

Rooting for ya! I have come to find rain during a smoke a good sign. Smokes when it rains turn out better than perfect days. Not joking. Rained like heck Memorial Day weekend but the ribs turned out to be my best yet.

Off the smoker.. No foil.. Just smoke (apple)

Sliced shot

Pulling the membrane after smoking is too easy...Lots of color under it..

The bite....
