I realize there are non-believers here - but not me! 3rd time now is a charm! They were DELICIOUS and gave me a chance to try my new BGE corncob holders. I forget who warned me of the sharpness of those pins, but they are wicked!!! Don't ask me how I know since I was warned! LOL

    Thanks - the key is to just smear the mayo on - not cake it on!

    No recipe per see, but the ribs were already wet coming out of the cryovac and I always just drain, but not rinse them. Then hit with coarse kosher salt and DP Raging River rub. I then smeared on a thin layer of Dukes brand mayo and dusted lightly with some more RR. I egged them indirect using my foil covered PS with legs up at 325 to 330. Didn't even use any wood for smoke this time. Started with bone side down, and after 1 hour flipped them and at the end of the second hour I checked the meat between the ribs and got readings of 203 to 208. The crust as I call it vs. thicker bark like on a butt was already there, but I brushed on a light layer of 50/50 Blue's regular and Blue's TN red. Closed my vents and left them for about 5 minutes and brought them in the house. Let them rest for maybe another 5 minutes and chowed down!

    just like the use of yellow mustard the mayo doesn't seem to impart a taste either, but at least in my mind the mayo oils the outer surface and then the egg ingredient has to do something doesn't it? LOL

    I just made some St. Louis ribs yesterday with a smearing of the mayo .. turned out great with an awesome crust ... SWMBO said it smelled like I used coconut oil .. I told her it is the Dukes Mayo. I had 3 racks ... took almost 3 hrs at 350 to get it completely done.

    I am 57 years old and I can always remember my mom putting mayonnaise on chicken, fish and meatloaf and I have been too for years, but it's RRP's post that led me to puting it on Ribs And even Bologna. Hellmans here in Michigan. Thanks for the recommendation.

    Ron those look great! I too tried the mayo trick and enjoyed the cook. I can't tell it changes the taste at all it is like using mustard. I will use again.

    Looks great Ron….hmmm…I have been set in my ways lately, and I do use the same rub, but never tried mayo. Your technique and your higher temp indirect cook looks awesome.

    Thanks for posting

    They sure look great.  You can't argue with that crust! I will try these on my next ribs.  


    Which came first the chicken or the egg?  I egged the chicken and then I ate his leg.

    Thanks folks, It works for me, but like I keep saying just smear it on - don't cake it on. In fact if you were smearing it on newspaper you should still be able to read almost every word!

    that was me on the sharpness Ron. I learned the hard way. The exterior, almost crust and sheen, on the ribs is spectacular. Of course that's what we expect from you. Nice job.

    RRP, in your opinion, does starting the ribs bone side down matter? I wonder if the results would be the same using mayo and putting them in a rib rack? I usually cook 4 racks at a time, and find it hard to fit them flat on my grid.

    Good question - but probably answered better by some one else! I just egg one rack at a time and I cut them in half to start with. That means I have no spacing issue. As for bone side down that's just the way I have always done them! Not too foody-scientific is it? LOL! My guess that standing them sideways I would stand them with the large end of the bones up instead of down for the first hour...but what do I know LOL! Sorry...

    Grillmagic, the bologna looks great. Do you always slice before smoking? I only ask because I haven't smoked bologna before. Thanks.

    Can someone tell me more about this?  You just put mayo on the outside of the patty before you grill it?
