I've had my LBGE for a few months now, but am just getting around to some of the longer cooks. Ribs are this weekend. Any suggestions on which type to go with? I'll follow up with pics next week.

Personally, I am a big fan of the ribs from the cow side of things. I think it is an easier cook....but neither are really difficult. both turn out really well on the egg. I think you go with which ever one you like best.....and then the next time....you do the other one.Ellijay GA with a Medium & MiniMax

Beef is good but pork fat rules. Now I would do spares or St. Louis style. Cook them until they pass the bend test, or the toothpick test.Columbus, Ohio--A Gasser filled with Matchlight and an Ugly Drum.

A variation of the 3-2-1 method is darn near foolproof on the egg.

Definitely St. Louis pork ribs and try the Memphis Dust dry rub recipe from

Here's some I did a few days ago, no sauce with this rub, 250-275 for about 4 hrs. with some apple chunks till a tooth pick goes in like butter without resistance.

Welcome aboard Vol brother. I agree with the 3-2-1 or 2-2-1 cook on baby backs at 225-250. Go vols.Morristown TN, LBGE and Mini-Max.

Skip the foil unless you want them falling off the bone. Just power straight through.

Thanks buddy. This is for a larger crowd, so I think I'll go either baby back or spare for this first cook. GBOMotownVol said:Welcome aboard Vol brother. I agree with the 3-2-1 or 2-2-1 cook on baby backs at 225-250. Go vols. -
I was pleased for the first go. Went with baby backs and did half in Dizzy Dust and the other half in Butt Rub.

Looks great. I'm a butt rub fan. Has some kick though. Nice job.
