My attempt at Car Wash Mike's BB ribs

Ivanhoe
Posts: 223
Gave Mike's method a shot yesterday and they turned out well. Possibly the juiciest BB ribs I've made. My duration for the 2 racks were definitely along the upper time limits that he mentions in his recipe. I had them on the egg just a bit over 6 hrs. By the time I took them off, they bent well and the toothpick test slid in nicely. I had some pullback on the ribs but nowhere near the 1-1.5" he mentioned. I would say mine had anywhere from 1/2 - 3/4." I think next time I will start at 250 degrees instead of the 225. Thanks to another great forum recipe contribution I baked a loaf of Artisan bread to go along with the ribs. (one note on the bread - I didn't have time to prep the night before, so I prepared it around 7:30 in the morning. I baked it with about 9hrs on the dough and it still turned out good)

WOW!!! Those ribs look wonderful, and that bread looks spectacular! What a great looking meal! Way cool! I love that kind of bread, but have never tried baking in the Egg, yet. (I haven't made bread of any kind in years.)
I like spares so much I've never tried baby backs. I'll have to give it a shot, sometime. -
Thanks Theophan - just to clarify, I cooked the bread in the oven as my egg
was full!I have cooked it on the egg, but sometimes the oven really is simpler. Especially if you are trying to get everything timed correctly.
