Cooking up some Baby Backs

I was craving some Baby backs so I purchased and rubbed up 3 racks last night with John Henry Hawaiian Rib Rub and stored in the fridge overnight. I prefer the 3-1-1 method for my ribs, with a few slight alterations.  

I had the Egg preheated and holding at 230* with my guru, pecan and hickory chunks in for smoke.  I placed the 3 racks on the rib rack and let them cook away indirect for 3.5 hours.  I then removed from the grill, wrapped the racks in foil and poured in some pineapple juice to help flavour and rehydrate the ribs.  I had them on the grill for 1.5 hours.  Once removed from foil, I had to be careful cause these ribs were now very tender and ready to fall off the bone.  I placed them back on the grill bone down and slathered the ribs with Stockyard KC Pitmaster BBQ sauce and let them cook for another 30-40 minutes until they passed both the bend and prob test.  

Took them off, rested for 5 - 10 minutes while I took some shots, and then served em up!  What a treat and craving is satisfied.... for now!  

Happy Eggin!

    The greatest barrier against all wisdom, the stronghold against knowledge itself, is the single thought, in ones mind, that they already have it all figured out.

    Looks great. Always nice to satisfy the BBR craving but, if you're like me, it will be back!

    Well, "spa-Peggy" is kind of like spaghetti. I'm not sure what Peggy does different, if anything. But it's the one dish she's kind of made her own.
