1st time rib smoke...

[K-Barbecue]

I'd score them a 9 !!

 

[Boshizzle]

Wow, great looking ribs, congrats!

Very nice and juicy and moist.

Excellent job for a first run.

Maybe the best I have seen.

Great job!

Nothing wrong with those ribs. If thats your first try your headed for greatness

 

[tamadrummer]

Looks like you knocked that one right out of the park! Excellent work man! You should be really proud, not too many can hit a grand slam on their first smoke and it looks like you did it!:clap2:

 

[HeSmellsLikeSmoke]

Oh, those look mighty tasty. Great job.

 

[Sunra]

[synctronic]

Good looking Ribs. Mmmmmm!

Hell I'm doing probably my 12 try of ribs tomorrow and I hope they come out that nice!
Good job.

 

[Dallas Dan]

Awesome! Congrats! :clap2:

 

[fnnm358]

you nailed that one
way to go
usualy you need to add coals every hour for a kettle indirect cook

 

[Shiz-Nit]

nice indeed

 

[El Ropo]

Looks spot on to me!

If however you would prefer them with a bit less moisture; you might try raising your
cooking temperature to 250°-260° Fahrenheit, and see how that works for you.

That right there is complete BS. Cooking hot and fast does not dry out meat. It just gets done quicker. I prefer 275+.

Dayum!:shock: Those look amazing!

If you keep turning out bbq like this the wife may buy you a BGE!

 

[London BBQer]

Wow guys, thanks for all your praise. Honestly I just followed what I had seen on here, watched a couple of Pit Boys videos and went for it.

I don't mind the ribs being juicy, I was just a little concerned if they were done or not. But after 7hrs and an internal temp above 165F I thought they were ok.

I'm lovin' this BBQ malarchy! If my wife buys me a BGE I will be seriously happy. And if she does, then I will make sure to shout it out on Q-talk. Might be a while, but in the meantime I want to try some brisket/pulled pork etc.

And the one thing I would love to try is smoking the Turkey this Christmas. Probably going to be a little more intensive when the temps drop, but I'm sure I can get some advice from my brothers here. Honestly, I have to say thank you to everyone who contributes to this board, and has made my venture into BBq a success. People can't believe how good everything tastes, and I'm always sure to tell them that it certainly did not come from a Gas BBQ!!!:heh:
