My first Egg

Got my very first egg yesterday and the maiden voyage was 1" bone-in Rib-eyes. Used a mix of Hickory and Cherry wood. Wife said it was the best steak I have ever made. Better the the restaurants in our town. Very tender, flavorful and juicy. I am going to try my hand at smoking baby backs today. Using Uncle Kenny's rub. I have to research recipes, which woods to use and cooking directions. I want them to knock her socks off.

    Com on Dave, only the socks, lol Smokin some good ole pork loin should get you more than socks. Try a slit down the center, stuff with apples, pecans, crasians, tie w/ butchers twine cook til desired temp. Serve w/ wine and sides your fave. Do your thing, be creative ain't nuttin bad on the Egg, but go for more than socks. :):):):) to you and enjoy your adventures on the Egg. Milesofsmiles.

    Congratulations and welcome to the forum.

    Glad to hear you cook turned out well. Don't over-think all these cooks, cooking on the egg is pretty easy and forgiving.

    Lot of good rib recipes, most flavor woods work well with pork. I like cherry, apple, Jack Daniels, grape and most all of the hardwoods.

    Here is a link to a popular rib cooking method.

    Mike's Rib Class When you get to this page and after reading go to the home page and you will find a lot of great information.

    Here are some ribs I whipped up with Mike's method.

    Wet ribs

    I pretty much follow the same method for the beef ribs.

    Have fun and I'll be looking forward to reading and [ul]seeing[/ul] more of your cooks.
