Working from home today and what better time to put on some ribs.   Rub is 'Memphis Dust' from Meathead, always had good results with it, so expecting the same again.

Just put them on...



I'll be back in 4 or 5 hours ...

    Had it at 300, Egg seem to settle there so fine by me.  I usually cook them at 300 to 350.  Did not turn them, sprayed with apple cider vinegar and water every hour or so.

    Also just finished a few and they were great!

    These were from the grocery store, I stopped buying the Costco ribs which I find terrible quality and taste.  The only meat I will not buy there.  

    Thanks

    Did the foil at the edges of the racks help? 
    That's a good idea.
    Kinda like when I bake a whole chicken I wrap the drumsticks and wings with foil to keep from getting overcooked.

    Yes it did help, it stoped the edges from burning.  I could have cut them in haft, but that's no fun.

    Tried for the first time to use the racks for ribs to stand them up. I hate them. Now I can put a couple of racks and foil the edges. Thanks much for your post.

    I also placed the platesetter leg section over the area I know the Egg is the hottest at the back left ... Due to a large crack in my fire box.

    It's been too long since I've done ribs, those look great!

    Almost perfect. Except, one thing, they ain't on my plate feeding me. Then they would have been PERFECT!

    Really? That is weird. I get them there all the time and I think they are the best I can find. Super meaty and delicious. These look great!

    FYI - Costco uses all major US meat suppliers.  They have some jedi knights running their purchasing, but you are going to see some inconsistencies between regional suppliers and based on supply. 

    This is on beef, and a bit dated, but a nice insight into their processes.
