***The First Annual E. Pluribus Unum: Fourth of July Rib Cook***

[Huskee]

That's my long weekend at work, boo! I will live vicariously through y'all here each night of the weekend as I browse and drool.

[Spinaker]

You can still cook remotely or I figured those kids of yours are old enough now to man that Yoder!

[Huskee]

Spinaker The only cooking I can do at work is reheating in the microwave, but yeah my kids should smoke me sumthin.

[radiodome21]

The real question is do I want to do beef ribs and blow the extended family’s mind away (and potentially my wallet) or blow their minds away with some butcher bought pork ribs that I can pick up in Lake Geneva. Either way I’m in. Hell might even do both.

[Spinaker]

Sounds like you NEED to do both. LOL

[Attjack]

I'm going to be manning my sister's farm otherwise I would be in.

[TheAmazingJohnJ]

Sounds like a great opportunity to pick up some farm-fresh ribs!

[Stevo]

I was gifted a South Carolina mustard bbq sauce recently, so I think I'll do a rack of baby back pork ribs Carolina style. Then for appetizers, smoked/pulled yard bird, and some sausage (why not sausage? . The side at this point will probably be cowboy caviar. Just cooking for two, so that should cover it!

[Steve B]

Bumping this up once again.
I still have 1 double pack of plate ribs that were gifted to me by our dear friend Mr. Bones, RIP brother, that I will be cooking. And plan to smoke up a couple of either baby backs or St. Depends on what looks better when I hit the store.
Appy’s making a black bean dip and poppers SteveB’s way.
Let’s get some more people on board. Whoohoo.

Since the whole thing was your idea, I would say you have to make ribs for everyone that can't make it.

[Steve B]

HAHAHAHAHA😂😂😂😂

[Steve B]

Actually it was Panhead John and myself who came up with the idea. And you stole it from us. 😂😂
Only kidding my friend. It was you that got all together. So kudos to the three of us. 👍

[Panhead John]

And yes, thanks Spinaker for putting it all together. 👍

[Spinaker]

Yeah, I am thinking pork ribs aaaaaand beef ribs are in order.

[Craigar]

Short ribs are on sale this week, so I submitted my order to SWMBO. We'll see what she comes home with on Saturday.

[Spinaker]

Buy all you can........why not?! There could be a "shortage" at any time. LOL

[Spinaker]

Gonna be getting the ribs this weekend. The only question is, do I buy three or four packs of ribs?!

[TheAmazingJohnJ]

My general rule is to buy as many racks as will fit on the smoker in one turn. Which makes the answer 9.

[synodog]

Me and the fam (the ones still at home) will be on the road in Georgia visiting my sisters family. My BIL will probably be smoking up something though.

[Spinaker]

Send us his cooks! 😎

[synodog]

Spinaker you just gave me an idea. Not only will I send you his cooks, I’ll need to get him a gift membership.

[Panhead John]

synodog Great idea! Remember he also can get a 30 day free trial, start the membership after it’s over.

[Panhead John]

Just a reminder here for folks who might be out of town this weekend, since the 4th falls on a Monday, you’ll have 4 days for your cook….Friday through Monday. Even though we’re encouraging ribs, it doesn’t have to be ribs. Show us your appetizer and sides too. There’s a rumor that Steve B will be personally giving $10,000. in cash to his favorite rib cook!

[that’s 100% total BS] 😂

[Steve B]

No. It’s true. But obviously I will like mine the best. 😁

[TheAmazingJohnJ]

I'm in for a couple of racks of pork ribs! Maybe even some bacon wrapped, sausage stuffed jalapenos, too. Because this is America!

[Panhead John]

Sausage stuffed jalapeños wrapped in bacon? That sounds great! I’m totally stealing that idea. I’ve never stuffed em with sausage. I’m thinking maybe Jimmy Dean Spicy breakfast sausage.

[Steve B]

Glad you’re joining in on the festivities.
Never tried sausage either. I like that idea.
Me I’m going with some reaper cheddar and wrapping in bacon than dusting them off with a reaper powder.

[TheAmazingJohnJ]

Yeah... I also saw a recipe the other day for "shotgun shells." Load up dry manicotti with sausage and cheese, wrap in bacon, then smoke. Once the sausage is done and bacon is cooked, baste with barbecue sauce and cook until gooey.

[LA Pork Butt]

I am working toward a July 4th cook.

[Panhead John]

Yeah…. I guess I’m being paid back for being an "occasional" pain in the ass kid.

[Steve B]

Panhead John You’re always out of town. 😁

[Panhead John]

Steve B Yeah, usually visiting my parole officer.

[Baltimorelger]

Getting so pumped! Just have to decide if I'm doing Beef Ribs or Pork!

[Steve B]

Do them both. I am.

[Bogy]

Yes!

[Dadof3Illinois]

We've decided to take a "No Kids" vacation to Jacksonville, Florida now so i'll have to bow out of this one. Maybe I can do it the weekend after the fourth???

[Spinaker]

Yep! No problem. Congrats on the Vacay! Enjoy!
