Redemption ribs

Needed to run some ribs back after the last ones that got away from me.  Didn’t get any progression pics, but here is the finished product.


Took 3 hours at 250ish on the Vault.  Oak and cherry mix, and glazed with homebrew sauce cut with equal parts ACV.
Just a hack that makes some $hitty BBQ....

    If you needed redemption, these would do the trick.  However, you did not need redemption.  Enjoy them, they look fantastic.

    Yeah, that is more than a redemption man. You drop kicked it from a 15 ft platform, then picked it up and pile drove it about 5 ft into the ground, then stuck a firework up its butt.

    These are really beautiful. They look perfect. Are they Compart Duroc?  and do you have any good resources on running the Vault? I bought one and have barely used it. I burned up most of my basket just getting to temp

    They were nothing special, Saint Louis Cut from Kroger.  I run my vault very unconventional.  I use a 4-6" row of charcoal to get it to temp, then I just add one large chunk of post oak (and cherry for ribs) to maintain.  Once it carbonizes, I break it and another chunk.  That keeps me around 250-260.

    @Thatgrimguy

    You are supposed to use a weed burner to heat up the internal walls and grates.  Maybe that's a step you missed and would make it much longer to get to temp.  I'll actually skip that step and add ice water to the main chamber when I do bacon.  Kinda like a cold-ish smoke hack.
