ChefSteps sous vide pastrami using chuck short ribs. Smoked 7 hours at 150°F with cherry then in the HTTM for 48 hours at 149°F. The rub is SPICY with chili pepper flakes in it. Her Nibs, who is both a pastrami aficionado and possesses a cast iron palate said it was really good. Who am I to argue?

Weber Summit Kamado with SnS and Vortex.. Broil King Baron, Primo Oval Junior. Primo XL. Love grilling steaks, ribs, and chicken. Need to master smoked salmon. Absolutely love anything to do with baking bread. Favorite cool weather beer: Sam Adams Octoberfest Favorite warm weather beer: Yuengling Traditional Lager. All-time favorite drink: Single Malt Scotch
So yesterday I asked what everyone wanted to eat, and ribs got the vote. I decided to do a side by side comparison of Memphis Dust, and my Memphis Dry Rub. I probably will get run out of the forum for saying this, but I find MMD a little bit sweet for my taste. I like a little more zing, and a little less sweet. So I did one rack with MMD, and one with my Memphis dry rub. My son declared the MMD more "balanced, and less zesty" than my rub. Bark was a little better with MMD, but I will give up some bark to cut back on the sweetness. I like my Memphis rub better for the flavor profile. I didn't sugar my rub, but instead sprinkled sugar on the ribs first, before applying my rub. I guess I will have to make two racks of ribs every time now. The trials we endure.... :-P4 Photos

Ribs look great! Next time you make a batch of Memphis Dust try swapping out half of the Paprika for Chili Powder. So 1/4 cup paprika and 1/4 cup chili powder. That's how I always make mine.

David Parrish I also add chilli powder to my MMD.

I grabbed a smallish prime rib (about 4lbs) on sale after easter. I have a Kamado Joe and recently got a Joetisserie and was wanting to try it out with some beef. Dry brined it overnight, then rubbed it a few hours before cooking with some mustard as glue and a good dose of Dizzy Pig Salt Lick. Back in the fridge for a few hours, then on the Joetisserie for a somewhere between an hour and an hour and half. Cooked it a bit beyond medium rare for the sake of the wife. Turned out great - best rib roast I have ever made. Out guests loved it!

I have a 48" Lang Deluxe smoker, Rec-Tec pellet smoker,1 Weber Genesis 330, 1 Weber Performer (blue), 2 Weber kettles (1 black and 1 Copper), 1 26" Weber kettle, a WSM, 8 Maverick Redi Chek thermometers, a PartyQ, 2 SnS, Grill Grates, Cast Iron grates, 1 ThermoPop (orange) and 2 ThermoPens (pink and orange) and planning on adding more cooking accessories. Now I have an Anova sous vide, the Dragon blower and 2 Chef alarms from Thermoworks.

David Parrish I dig the Kick Ask basket, but I could live without it. I find that for me where it shines is when I want to cook really hot (i.e. searing). It seems to allow better/more airflow, so getting up to temp seems to happen faster. That said, I think that it may well burn through charcoal faster due to this, so I think I am not going to use it for low and slow anymore. As far as cleanup goes, I don't really find this any easier/faster than with the stock equipment. That said, kamado makers always seem to recommend lump as the ash from briquettes can impede airflow. I think that if one were to put briquettes in the kickash then this would not really be an issue, as the kickash maker recommends removing the bottom iron grate when the basket is being used anyways...
