Back ribs. WSM22 w/Weber briquettes and apple chunks. Might be the best I’ve done.

Posted in the main SUWYC thread, but my first traditional brisket, cooked on the Bronco, B&B charcoal with pecan and mesquite smoke. Rubbed with chef mesh pepper, then generous Meat Church Holy Cow and a light dusting of Meat Church Holy Gospel. No crutch, just powered through the stall.
served with a Coppola reserve dry creek Zinfandel. And gluten free Mormon funeral potatoes.Attached FilesComment

I wasn’t able to find lamb ribs I wanted. But I had to keep rotating the freezer, so no new ribs. For today, I give you rib-eye quick seared with caprese salad and sautéed mushrooms.

We did our family 4th yesterday. They asked for some BBQ - who am I to deny!
I did 4 racks and some chicken on the trusty KBQ. My brother-in-law mentioned Johnny Trigg style - so I got a little creative.
I don’t normally wrap ribs on the KBQ. Johnny Triggs style is to do the 3-2-1 but put butter, brown sugar, honey and Tiger Sauce in the wrap. So, I did 1 rack Triggs style, one rack wrapped and 2 racks naked.
For the rub, the 2 naked racks had good old homemade Memphis Dust - so did the chicken. All dry brined the night before. The Triggs and other wrapped racks had a 50/50 Meatheads Pork Rub and Killer BBQ Pork rub.
Smoked with a combination of hickory and cherry woods. Man that cherry puts some beautiful color on the meats, especially the chicken.
All came out great. A few preferred the Triggs style, some preferred the non-Triggs. All thought it was great and tasty.
The chicken was also a big hit. I’ve been using Memphis Dust and a little salt on chicken for some some. That smoky, slightly sweet taste is always a big hit.
Here are some pics:
KBQ doing it’s magic
Unfortunatly the day ended a little early and on a sad note…
Our 13 1/2 year old dog, Ria, a German Shepherd, Chow Chow, Poodle mix (yes, Poodle - that’s what the DNA test our kids got us for Christmas years ago said) has been having lots of trouble with her rear legs. 6 month ago our vet told us she had tumors on her spleen and liver. Said it was going to be a horse race between the cancerous tumors or hips…
When we arrived at my Mother-in-law house, Ria headed for the door - a half flight of stairs down to the door. I heard what sounded like someone shutting that door loudly. Thought it was my brother-in-law (and odd that he didn’t offer to help unload the car).
When I got to the stair well, there was Ria at the bottom on the small space between the door and steps. BTW, she was our 3rd dog and by far the quietest, friendliest and gentlest dog we had ever known. She did bark, yelp, whine.
I checked her out - seemed nothing broken and lifted her up. We been helping her up for months.
We have a dog bed at my Moms house. Ria seemed ok, hit her water bowl, walked around to get spoiled by everyone and ended up on her bed like she normally does. A few hour laters, we noticed she was breathing a bit harder than normal. My wife went over to check her. Ria couldn’t get up.
Four of us lifted her up on her bed and put her in the car to take to Vet Emergancy Services.
The doctor did some tests/ultrasounds and then told us one of the tumors had ruptured and she had blood in her abdomin.
It was her time.
Thanks to the wonderful vet, Ria passed quietly and hopefully peacefully.

Looks like I should go somewhere else and eat y'all's food. Up this morning and got the Weber Kettle with SNS out. I think he feels neglected. Got my Kingsford Apple and a little bit of B&B lump I had left over going. Btw I found on Amazon the bbq dragon. A chimney with a place to put a matching fan. Can get an entire chimney rolling in 2-3 minutes.
I started about a 1/4 chimney and thew 3 apple chunks in the SNS basket. I bought fatman (11lb butt) and little boy (4lb butt) Friday at Piggly Wiggly) the better deal was on 2 packs but the smallest pack weigh 24 lbs and I'm only have about 12 people over and 3 or 4 won't eat pulled pork. I know uninvite them, right???? But they are family so the wife said NO.
I've also got a rack of spareribs I'll cook blasphemy style and 6 beef shorties... Cooks treat.
I'll probably get the Bronco fired up later and do all the ribs on it.Comment

I forget I have a hover grill for the kettle. So I'll throw my blasphemy ribs and shorts on there.Comment

I am at my moms for the weekend. So I am going to have to live vicariously through your posts since I am not cooking and there isn't a grill in sight. I should have brought one with me but the forecast said rain all weekend in the Atlanta area.Comment

With every good intention of making pix of every step of my rib cooks, once people began arriving I got caught up in the moment and forgot to take finished product pix. I did ribs on 7/1 & 7/2 for 12 & 16 people, respectively. Out of four racks cooked, there were 3 individual ribs left over. Also smoked a brisket flat each day..
Happy Fourth y’all!!
