My original plan for tonights dinner was to smoke a pork butt on the green egg, but since it has been raining all day, I smoked it on the Traeger instead. I started a bit late, so I decided to throw some ribs on as I didnt think the butt would be done in time.

The babybacks were the best I have done. Very meaty and delicious. I am not sure if I have ever had better. Ribs have always been a mystery to me, but I hit a homerun with these! Best of all, I kept it simple; no foil, no spritzing with apple juice. Just slathered in mustard and sprinkled with the rub. They cooked for 4.5 hours @ 225. They were moist and needed just enogh pull to have them come clean off the bone. Awesome!

The pork had been on a little over 5 hours when the ribs went on.

I made little rib sliders with Kings Hawaiian rolls.

The pork butt just came off a few minutes ago. About 11 hours cook time. It is wrapped up and in the cooler to rest. It will become pulled pork sammiestomorrow @ some point!

Wish I could cross post, the folks on another forum talk about 1-2-3, and 3-2-1, and foils, and finish in oven.

I have never done anything but straight time left alone! That's what works!
