Rib Comp Practice Run

[OlyQ]

It's that time of year again when the Family puts on the back yard bbq rib comp. It's always a good time so I thought today would be a good day to do a practice run. I've been working too much the last few weeks so today was nice . Sit back watch some baseball have a few beers and toss some Rib's on the Assassin .

A few day's ago I picked up some of the famous Wallyworld Inhanced Spares.
and wanted to cook a few for myself to see what all the hub bub was about.

First Impression was , they are pretty thick, and cut pretty well. Not a lot of extra trimming out the bag.

Since It was a practice run for a Comp. I did 2 racks .

One with salt and pepper with a nice thin sugar glaze at the end
and
the other with some dizzy pig and glazed with some blues hog/apple cider vinegar.

I usually like to run the Assassin at 275 or higher but today I was in no hurry what so ever so I let it settle in at 235 -245 range.

My choice of wood today was apple , pecan and I tossed a chunk or two of some fresh cut peach in.

Cook time was right about 5 hours, Since it was a lazy cook. No Wrap this go. I sprayed em down a few times with a some cider vinegar that was about it.

All in all . I kinda liked those wally world ribs. I usually see the Words Enhanced and Head for the Hill's . They tasted great . Juicy as a watermelon tender as can be.

Anyways , in the End I like the Salt and Pepper and the Wife like the Dizzy Pig better. I think Either one would be a solid choice for a turn in .

Good looking ribs. Were those the Tyson ones they sell?

[bbqwizard]

They look great!

[thunderalley3]

Great color. nice looking finished product. Did they taste salty? I cooked some today and I thought they had a bit of a salty taste, they were one day from best if used by date, I wonder if that makes a difference.

[Enrico Brandizzi]

Great color and bark and moistness too on those bones !

Very nice looking ribs. I love dizzy pig as well

[Bigbears BBQ]

Nice looking bones I find that they usually cook a bit faster than normal but other than that I like them. and the price is right.

[Right on Q]

Very nice. I like those PED enhanced ribs too :-P

Did you trim down to St Louis style or purchase them already trimmed? I have not bought ribs from the Mart but yours look delicious.
