Eating cereal for dinner

Totally messed up my cook today. Put on ribs for dinner but had to leave for a family lunch.
Was going @Carolina Q method or as @SGH would say "nekkid". Wanted 225, but as we were leaving temp dropped to 215. Decided to bump bottom vent, then as safety from flame out adjusted the top.
Well got back from lunch, which was about 2hrs longer than planned to an egg riding comfortably at 400. Unfortunaty I had used a honey base for a change of pace. If I stayed at anything less than 250 I would have been fine. Oh well, the Honey Bunches of Oats is pretty good.

I'm thinking the beers had something to do with this
It happens. I remember nuking a brisket ... Egg was running at 600+ while I was trying desperately to put the kid down for a nap. Was the last straw with regards to getting a temp controller.#1 LBGE December 2012 • #2 SBGE February 2013 • #3 Mini May 2013A happy BGE family in Houston, TX. -

Now if you had them in the sous vide......the cereal would still be in the cupboard and there would be more empties in the trash can.

Lol, I cut the fatty end thinking something might be edible, but it was like the National Lampoons Turkey. It was literally hollow. All the fat must have melted out and brought the meat with it.

Btw, it is not common knowledge, but stolen food has no calories.

I did two racks of ribs last Thursday. Absolute garbage. Terrible quality ribs from the start. (Don't buy 8 racks of ribs when on sale that you're not familiar with) Knowing that they were going to be bad I had little heart in the cook. I decided to go heavy with cherry wood to experiment. We had 2-3 bones each and that was it for the two racks. The other couple racks may never make it out of the deep freeze. Almost a waste of lump. I feel your rib pain!

I decided I would rather sacrifice the ribs to the gods in 2017 than Meatloaf or Brian Johnson.
