Friday BB Buddy Cook

A buddy of mine is going through some hard times.  My wife and I wanted to have him over for a nice meal. Had a pack of 3 of BB's ($1.49/lb...Score!) from RD and thought they would be perfect. 

Set the EGG up with the AR R&B combo with extender. Dialed in 225* and let it settle there for 30min.

Rib prep was pretty simple...

Rib 1 - pulled membrane, rubbed in yellow mustard for binder, liberal coat of Bad Byrons, rubbed in a layer of brown sugar on meat side, and then another coat of Bad Byrons.

Rib 2 - same as above except rubbed in honey mustard for binder (wondered if it would change the flavor)

Rib 3 - pulled membrane, rubbed in yellow mustard, liberal coat of Head Country (wife is an Okie and EVERYONE has to continually talk about it), brown sugar, another coat of HC

Now on to the cook:

    Not to get technical, but according to chemistry alcohol is a solution...

    Looks good. For some reason when I do 3 racks I always do 2 below and 1 above. No reason, just how I usually set it up.

    Buddy just left and he loved the ribs.  WHEW!  SWMBO loved them as well.  so I was 2 for 2! I will take it.

    Here was hour five right before I pulled the non crutched rack.


    Here was the final after a little BP/T/C.  Had to cook some skillet jalapeno/cheese cornbread on the EGG after the ribs.  No pics of the corn bread.  The ribs came out a little darker because of lighting. 


    2 of the racks went 3-2-1
    1 went roughly 5 hrs. 

    Overall it was a successful cook in my eyes.  Both people I was feeding enjoyed it.  I was a little disappointed in the amount of meat on one of the racks as the meat was pretty thin. But for the price I can't complain.

    Hey Dwayne - I actually rotated the racks which I am not sure if that really matters.  I was thinking that I would give the higher in the dome love to all of them...

    I do lightly sauce at certain times and find it is easier doing that with two on top.
