Ribs & Mac n' Cheese

I wasn't planning to post this, so didn't take many pictures. But these were my best pork ribs yet. St. Louis Spares with Memphis Dust. I did 2 racks, one with Mayo, one just the rub. Mayo wins. I think the oil in the Mayo helped with the high sugar content in the rub. I ran 250* dome temp for 5 hours, then bumped to 275* for the last 1 hour. Texture was perfect, single bite clean off the bone. Even got a smoke ring. I wish I could do things exactly the same and know I would get the same results...






I hope everyone is having a great Thanksgiving week.

@YEMTreyCrack N' Cheese, recipe below. I used a mix of mild cheddar and havarti. I did the recipe x3. Instead of 4.5 C of milk I did 4 C milk + .5 C of heavy cream. Other than that, the recipe as is.On the egg for the last 2 hours or so of the 6 hour cook.They/Them

Great looking cook man. Love that Mac and cheese too. :-bdSlumming it in Aiken, SC.

Now, mix the rib meat with the Mac n cheese for left over goodness.

Great looking ribs. Love that smoke ring! The mayo thing kind of freaks me out, like looking at forks and food, but I may just try it! (Mayo, never fork pictures)Chicago, IL - Large and Small BGE - Weber Gasser and Kettle

Saw this in your FB feed earlier - the smoke ring looks perfect. I know what you mean about wishing you had it down to a science, but I think maybe ribs just aren't like that."I've made a note never to piss you two off." - Stike

I was going to say that I would have cooked the ribs overtop of the mac+chee to get come pork flavor in there.theyolksonyou said:Now, mix the rib meat with the Mac n cheese for left over goodness.

Thanks guys.That's a great idea!The ribs were on first, I added the extended rack and mac n' cheese toward the end of the cook. Not sure if there would still have been drippings, but I'll give that a try next time. And there will be a next time.They/Them
