Default Good news all around!

First off, my fatties came out SUPERB! My wife, mom and step father all were very impressed!

Secondly, when my wife came home this afternoon, she'd been at Sam's Club and walked in with a surprise for me on the day I brooke in my BSKD! 24 pounds of baby backs and two 7 pound briskets! Woo hoo!!! Now I know I gotta take off Friday when the Yankee in-laws come in from Michigan! I'll be busy cooking baby backs all day! Any advice on BBR's would be greatly appreciated!

2-2-1 on those BBR's. 2 hours (or until the meat starts to pull away from the bone) in the smoke, 2 hours wrapped in foil in the smoker and then 1 hour sitting in the cooler. You can do the last hour unwrapped again in the smoker to get a little 'chew' back on 'em but I usually leave in the cooler - bones just fall out. Melt in your mouth good.

Beer & BBRs. Mmmmm....

This is the key indicator as to when to start the 2-1 sequence and can vary greatly. I had the cimarron VERY full of BB's saturday and the prewrap portion of the cook took 4hrs before I had bones showing enough to wrap.

I've never made BBR's. Everytime I go to buy some at 3.99/# I end up seeing some spares for 1.79/# and just cant justify in my mind paying more money for less meat from the same pig.

Ditto
Actually, I have tried them and don't see enough difference to warrant the cost.
JMHO

Well - I used to feel the same way but a few factors have changed my mind, not entirely though:

1. BB's I do believe taste better.
2. BB's cook faster
3. I prefer the spares St. Loius style so I completely remove the breast bone (thanks Hobo) and the skirt. The breast bone either goes in the freezer and typically stays in the freezer or is discarded.
4. BB's are all around easier to work with.
