Sunday Spares on the Small

DMW

Trimmed the spares to SLC. Tips and trimmings are on there as well. Had to pull the dome thermometer. I went with Memphis Dust and Cherry wood.

SWMBO and my daughter went to see a movie. My big guy went to a minor league ball game with friends. My little guy just went down for a nap.

Quite house and a smoking egg on a Sunday afternoon. Life is good.

Just going to wing it temperature wise? You could carefully re-insert until you feel the probe touch and then back it out a half inch.

DMW

@RRP I have my Maverick probe on the grid behind the ribs.

While I know the SBGE has legs-thanks for another confirmation-especially since I took possession of one Saturday.  Would have already christened it but LBGE cook got in the way.

I like what I'm seeing thus far. Standing by my friend.

Gotta love the small!! Can't wait to see how they turn out.

DMW

Thanks everyone, this is my first attempt at ribs on the Small.

Here's the firebox shot from earlier.

And here's my big guy with his buddy at the Reading Fightin Phils game. Amazing weather here in PA.

Fine looking little fellows you got there!! Question. Do you buy your splits or cut yourself?

DMW

@SGH These were sent to me from a fellow egger co-worker that has cherry on his property.

@DMW‌
That's awesome. I still cut mine instead of buying them. If I ever get lucky and hit the lottery I will start buying them though. Getting old and lazy my friend!!

Can't wait to see the final product.

DMW

Getting there.

Rib pic from an hour or so ago.

Just put corn on the XL raised direct.

I really wanted to hit 400*, man this thing is so hard to control. :-B

SGH

I like seeing corn on the Cobb on the grill!!! That's my kind of grub brother. Standing by.

DMW

It worked. Not thrilled with the quality of Wal-Mart ribs, but that's what I had to settle with for lack of planning.

DMW

Dessert.

Great idea with the muffin pan! I'll have to try it next time!

Looks like a meal for a king!!!

I love how creative you all are when getting bigger pieces of meat on the small grills. Looks like it turned out just fine. Did any of the ribs dry out ?

DMW

@mcmac

The ribs were not of the highest quality, not because of the method, but because of the quality of the meat. The meat was thin, and did not have the "bite" I like from spares. They were decent, just not the best. Notice I didn't post a sliced shot.
