Went to BIL's house for holiday today. I cooked the ribs yesterday.
Started out with 3 racks of spares:
Trimmed them St. Louis style and used Simply Marvelous Spicy Apple Rub:
Been wanting to experiment with wood mixtures so I set up with some Pecan, Hickory & Peach:
I have an 18.5 WSM so with the racks, the bones fit nicely. One on the bottom and two on top. Had room for another rack of ribs:
Left the ribs in the smoke for about 3 hours at 260-270*F then pulled and foiled with a little apple juice and liquid butter. Checked them again about 2 hours later with the intention finishing them on the the smoker but they were done and tender.They passed the bend and probe test so I pulled them out of the foil to cool:
LuzziAnn was busy making tater salad and other fixin's:
Arrived at BIL's house and he and his wife had been busy too grilling burgers and boudin along with his famous baked beans:
A few plated shots:
Lightly sauced the ribs before heating and carving:
The smoke wood combo added some great flavor but was not too strong.
A Great time was had by All! Thanks for Lookin'. :becky:
