    Sunday bones

    Finally got round to doing short ribs in the kettle. Picked up a 3 bone slab Saturday noon-ish. Trimmed, cut to onesy bones, dry brine, fridge overnight. Slow rendered down all the scraps to brown crunchy bits and fat. Dog was a happy girl!

    Sunday morning fire up the kettle, dust with BBBR, into the kettle.

    First time trying out the new Smoke. That thing is sure handy. Nice to be able to track pit and meat from indoors and a couple floors up.

    Hit it once with the beef love around 2.5 hours. It was about 195 when I pulled them, 5.5 hours. Wrapped and faux cambro for 1.5 hours.

    When I unwrapped, we had to "just have a taste". A few minutes latter, one rib down. We could eat these way more often than any sort of healthy.

    Stuffed the SnS pretty full at the beginning, never had to reload. Seemed like it could have gone another hour easy.

    Tip of the hat to AR, and the Pit. With that kind of guidance, hard to go wrong.

    The evidence ...

    That is some kind of sweetness. Now I go to bed hungrier than what I was 35 seconds ago.

      Looks great.

      I did short ribs also yesterday. The SnS makes it very to control the temp.

        SnS really does make it easy. The DnG takes it up another notch.

      Wow those are awesome pictures. I'm one that likes the fatty cuts, so this is my kind of food.

              First time doing a long beef cook on the kettle. The bark was a near religious experience. ;-)

              I love beef, and great bark with some smoke takes it over the top.

              Beautiful. If done properly, and it looks like they were, short ribs are the bomb.

                  I have always struggled with beef short ribs. They always comes out with a little nugget of meat. While buying, I think I have some nice, thick short ribs, then once they cook down they are more like beef nuggets on the bone! Still good but not really what I am looking for. I need a good source of beef plate ribs!

                    Spinaker Don't be afraid to try beef chuck ribs. I think they are every bit as good as plate ribs and meatier. I have to order them by the case but have no trouble getting them all used up.

                    Know what you mean on that. I thought this set wasn't too bad, with only one of the three doing the vanishing meat trick. Pretty happy with the other two.

                  Your dog was thinking... I hope the door bell rings so these humans give me 5 seconds alone to grab that short rib.👅

                  Good cook.👌

                    For sure! Nothing more optimistic than a dog knowing the meat is "right there".

                    It's been way too long since I've cooked these. Thanks for the inspiration, I've GOT to cook some now.

                      Happy to be of service! It was other folks pix that set me to do these.

                    Nice work. I love both types of beef ribs. They're like little brisket candy bars!
