First Crack at Plate Ribs

Egg is coming up to temp. Will be putting these on shortly. I asked for plate ribs, I'm pretty sure I got plate ribs but the sticker says short ribs. Oh well. 

How do you like the Salt Lick rub?  I bought a bottle to try, but everything tasted like pure pepper.  Just wondering if it was the bottle I had or just the way it is.

The rib cook looks good.

Thanks for the great pics and reminding me I have a rack in the freezer.  Well I did, on the egg now

@Desleight  It is a peppery rub IMO too.  However it wasn't too bad this time around.  I have a little bit less than half the bottle left.  I tend to try and shake it around to mix it up some.  Tends to settle in layers if I don't.

Thanks.  I find it strange that I have eaten at The Salt Lick several times and never found their food to have that much of a peppery taste.  I don't believe that what they are selling in the bottle is what they use at the restaurant.

Yup;  3 bone =plate; 4 bone=short ribs.  You are in for a great banquet.  Enjoy.

Call me a stickler for details, but it's actually:

3 bone: plate short ribs
4 bone: chuck short ribs

You inspired me. But a major thunderstorm made me take them off about an hour early. They were still eatable but not like yours

Looking good bud. Never have let a thunderstorm or blizzard stop me. Beauty of the egg is it doesnt care about the elements. It just wants to ride.
