OT: Ribs on the Roccbox

JohnInCarolina

Decided to try something a little different.  Riffed off a recipe posted online for baby back ribs finished in a Roccbox.  You roast them in a rub for 2.5 hrs.  Sauced and finished in the Roccbox at 900 degrees, five minutes a side.  






Holy Mother of God these were good.  I may never do ribs any other way if these consistently turn out like this.  These may be making an appearance at Butt Blast my friends.

They look killer. I bet SV in lieu of roasted would be slammin too.

They look great!  Make sure Nichole gets some

I don’t know man.  I’m a big proponent of SV ribs, but these were honestly every bit as good if not better.  Plus, they took all of three hours start to finish.  Ribs in THREE hours!

Damn I want one of those roccboxes.

I’ve got a friend who works for Williams Sonoma and gets a 40% discount.  It’s getting harder and harder not to grab one

That is an insanely great employee discount.  I might have to start moonlighting at WS.

I would end up paying them to work there.

Great looking cook, John. I want to try those ribs, love the way they look.

When I worked for Bose it was 50%.   Own waaaayy too much audio equipment

Interesting! I wonder if this can be replicated on a BGE for those of us without a Roccbox.

How’s the cleanup or does it all just burn off in the RB?

There’s no cleanup. You put them in a CI pan and then into the RB.  The heat and flame do all of the work.

I keep telling myself I don’t need one of those.  Then this and I think, damn a steak off that thing would be awesome too.  Damn you, dookie!  Damn you!

The effect here is created by a flame rolling over the ribs in a chamber that’s at 900F.  There may be a way to get to something like that in a BGE but to me it’s not obvious.

I’ve actually not tried the steak yet.  But yeah... it makes you think.

Matthew is now telling me how much I need one. He’s like his momma. Have money, will spend.

LOL your boys were all over the pizza last weekend.  Such good kids man - you guys have raised them right.

I just got my Roccbox direct from the manufacturer.  Same price as William Sonoma and Free shipping to the US.  For some reason, the lead time for delivery ordering through William Sonoma was 6-8 weeks to Los Angeles.  I got it in less than a week from Roccbox.

Ordered mine direct from Gozney too. I had it within a week.

Careful @Jeremiah... some smarta$$ will call you out for not using an egg.

Touché.

Can you cook below 900° on those if you want to? Sometimes I feel like an American style pizza at 500°

Wylecyot

Yes you can adjust the temp

Just another reason for me to buy a Roccbox. Well played good sir. Well played indeed.

Wondering if 20-30 minutes in an Instant Pot and then a high heat finish in a Roccbox would be good. Total time 45 minutes +/-.
