Looks good! I hate foil, it tastes icky to me. I put my ribs on and leave the lid closed for 5 or 6 hours. The Egg takes care of the moisture, don't need liquid in the drip pan. Smoke, rub, sometimes a little sauce at the end. Works for me.
With your dome temp at 215, your grate temp could be as low as 180 or so. Try 250 dome next time, or even 275. The pork won't mind, and will be done way sooner.
If they were dry they probably weren't quite done. Sometimes they take a little longer than normal, but with average size back ribs I usually find 5 hours works, sometimes another half hour is better if they are a little bigger. You didn't say how l…
Waaayyyyy too salty for me, but as usual, YMMV. Might be OK if cut with other less salty things, as others have said. I really like his Jubilee Seasoning on fish.
Wow, awesome! That is one beautiful piece of meat! (Not referring to the haggis I so love the Mini, cooking an organic thick cut pork chop on mine as I type. It's a very fun little cooker, looks like you are going to love yours! Congrats!
Hmm, not as sweet as some years, smaller, not "pretty", but very "peachy" tasting, clean is the word that comes to mind. All depends on the weather, I guess, we had a lot of rain early, and no late freeze for a change. These Ozarks peaches are reall…
That's the issue with me, but with these I got the fat rendered, and they were awesome. Started at a lower temp, and ramped up. Most of the fat was gone and some was crisped up on the edges to cracklin's. Came out great!
Just have to cook them long enough to render the fat out, otherwise they are too greasy for me. These came out perfect, a little crunchy around the edges in places and juicy and tender in the middle, with a little pull off the bone. Started around 2…
That sucks Whatever it's worth, thanks for all your efforts, you know this forum has meant a lot to a lot of people. I really appreciate all you guys have done.
And semi OT, if you are looking for a new compact camera, I'm loving my Panasonic Lumix, so handy and easy, I use it way more than my fancy camera, and it does pretty well.
If there is much salt in your rub, leaving it on a thin piece of meat like ribs can make it "hammy", and too salty. I always wait until after I start the fire.
On the Egg all the way. Set it at 250 and forget it for 5 hours or so for loin backs, 6 or so for spares. Sauce the last 30 minutes or so if desired. Works for me. Some use foil, but I never have.
