Ribs

It is not normal for me to miss getting a before and during picture. Made these bad boys for my wife's family that drove in yesterday afternoon. 3-2-1 method at 200-225 during smoke, 225-250 during wrap (temp spiked on me and was at a snails pace to come back down), then added the final glaze and let them rest with foil in the oven to maintain temperature for dinner. Ribs passed the bend test right on the money and surprisingly didn't fall off the bone because of the temperature spike.

    @Rebhanmh. Those look great, what's the secret glaze if you don't mind me asking?

    When in doubt Accelerate....
  • Looks good. I wouldn't trouble yourself over a 'spike' from 224-250, FWIW. 

    we like them glazed like that too. Sticky ribs are what we grew up with

    Every time I do BBQ on the egg I get a new glaze so this isn't a staple BBQ sauce. It's actually Kroger's private selection ketchup based BBQ sauce. Very solid, I typically use it for chicken. It has a smooth balance between sweet and tangy.

    If you want something to swear by for ribs, I suggest honey/butter/brown sugar topped onto ribs as soon as you pull off egg then gently rubbed into a glaze. Sit in foil and let rest, the heat will turn it into a sticky glaze and the sweetness will have you in awe.
