Smoked Ribs - Saturday, August 10, 2024 - Burnt Them

 

Using a newer recipe from You Tube. This guy is good. He is keeping it simple for a

simpleton like me. Since the smoke is close to 4 hours, I will most likely

have to add more charcoal to finish them. I am smoking 4 ribs because MP ( military

police ) wants her rib in the slow cooker. 

                                                              THE SMOKE

4 hours of smoke and 2 hours in foil. Have more charcoal on hand incase you need it.

Hour 1 - 225F.

Hour 2, 3, and 4 - 275F. You will have to open the lower vents wide open, or close to it.

I decided not to spritz them as they are in the rib rack on their side. I will do that when

not in the rib rack.

Hour 5 and 6 - Wrapped in sauce, honey and a few slabs of butter in FOIL. Tossed in

the oven on trays at 275F.

Start at 11 am to have ribs at 5 pm or an hour later to eat at 6? No, start at 11 am. Just

to be sure incase something goes horribly wrong which is usual for me.

                                                          RIB DAY

Not so good. Had a real hard time getting the smoker temp down to the zone. By the time

the 4 hour mark came around, they kind of burnt. Next time don't add so much wood and

charcoal at a time. Close the vents to get it down to 205F and try to keep it there. The

ribs she got are not very good. Buy the one's at No Frills for now on. Try again next week.
