Ribs - peach preserves and awesome
YukonRon
Posts: 17,261
You may have remembered my post titled "Bone in Butt" where one of the key components used was Peach preserves.
Well...........
I had a rack of SLS, which I did the same thing. Guess what? Awesome. Smoked with peach, great crust, super
juicy, and nothing left.
Best I have ever had. Best.
Try the preserves, awesome. Used my own rub which brought a little heat.
For those that use knife and forks, you did not need a knife.
Bones fell right out.

Okay, you convinced me. Coating with preserves is worth a try. This could be the next big thing to catch on

I have used peach preserves on pork tenderloin before. Your ribs looked great.

Do you have stock in Smuckers, or are you starting a cult?
jk - I'm one that has tried Ron's peach preserves on a butt, and the results were excellent. I can vouch for his recommendation.

Looks great !!!!

Gotta try this but think I will put the preserves on toward the end of the cook.

I've been craving ribs, and have not had a chance to make them for a few weeks. Those look amazing, I'll have to try the preserve thing when I finally get a chance.They/Them

Just checked and we have some Dutch Apple preserves with a touch of cinnamon. Apples and pork should be good.

I have considered Apple preserves and apple butter. I am just working with peach on a few cuts of pork. So far everything I have tried on pork has been killer."Knowledge is Good" - Emil Faber

Worth a try

@blasting I hope to retire in a couple years, so, yeah, buy smuckers. Just kidding. Got nothing in them but good BBQ base. The spice from the dry rub is the killer, I think.blasting said:

@texaswig I salt the ribs and leave at room temp. I use about 1/4 teaspoon per pound. Let sit for two hours. Then I use my dry rub, and I do rub it in. After that I use the peach preserves. I smoke with about 8 ounces of (your choice) peach, at the start, then approximately 1 hour prior to th finish, I put on another 8 oz of (your choice) peach. At that time I apply my BBQ SAUCE, mixed with 2 Tbsp of preserves, until bend or 200F IT. I cook at 225F indirect, last hour of cook I go to 400F, to bend 200F, IT or bend test.
You will like them.

Boy those do look great. @YukonRon I know I am probably guilty of over thinking this, but are you talking about the juices, like say in a can of peaches, or do you have chunks of peaches on your ribs after applying?

@mahenryak I use the preserves, complete with chunks. Also no foil."Knowledge is Good" - Emil Faber

Just curious, what style rub did you use? I'm guessing something with a sweet profile vs peppery.They/Them

I use my own general purpose rub. About 30% garlic, 30% onion, 10% brown sugar, 10% smoked paprika, 10% coarse ground black pepper, 10% cayenne pepper. It has a little spicy heat, but not super hot. The preserves bark it up really nice, giving you the sweetness, the rub gives it a bit of savory and spice, and the flavor of the smoke is there, mild, not overbearing. Several layers of delicious flavor, very juicy. By far the best ribs I have ever done.DMW said:Just curious, what style rub did you use? I'm guessing something with a sweet profile vs peppery.
Be sure to put a roll of paper towels on the table!"Knowledge is Good" - Emil Faber
