National Pig Day

We might not agree on politics or sports teams, but most all of us can agree that bacon is its own food group. 

Its National Pig Day!

 Post your favorite pork meals. (Or inappropriate comments. It’s gonna be a long day at work, I could use the distraction)

I've never cooked more than 2 racks of ribs on my Large.  Is that a BGE in your picture, and if so, is it a Large, XL?

I'm really curious about how ribs turn out that are sort of leaning against each other like that.  I love the idea that maybe I could cook several racks that way.  Do the ones in the middle cook the same as the ones on the outside?  Do they get the same amount of smoke?  Do you have to keep flipping them or anything?

Thanks!

It is the XL.

They turned out fine. You just have to watch them a bit more. Shuffle them around a bit, checking temps to make sure you keep them all on the same schedule.




  Do the ones in the middle cook the same as the ones on the outside?  

No, I had to watch those on the ends and shuffle them around to keep them all on track.

I pulled them when the toothpick test worked. Not at tme or temp.
Some were early, so I wrapped in BP and put them in a cooler. Held for 3 hours, and served steaming.



Do they get the same amount of smoke?

I was using 5 fist sized chunks of peach. I think I got them all to the level I needed for smoke flavor.


  Do you have to keep flipping them or anything?

Did not flip, but did shuffle them a couple times. The second time, some began to fall apart.

Thanks!
I hope I helped. It was a fun cook, learned a lot. Got loads to learn, too.

For those of you bringing apps to my funeral after party....start here. (Also stick a few pieces of bacon and a heavy pour in the casket just in case. VA healthcare isn’t top notch and I sleep pretty hard)

Thanks! My team entered a gingerbread house competition at work and asked me to work BBQ into it somehow so the pig candy roof and shutters went on. We didn’t win the contest but ours tasted the best
