Beef Plate Ribs Last Night

Trimmed up and membrane removed...
Seasoned with Spicy DP, on the Egg at about 250, sugar maple wood chunks...
Had brisk winds, 15-20mph, in direction of bottom vent most of the afternoon.  No proof this has any impact on the Egg temp stability, in any case I try to avoid steady winds aimed at the vent.  One of our most comfortable patio chairs is my go-to deflector...
Took the first look at about the four hour mark, ribs tough and reading around 160...
Took them off after a little over six hours, probing tender and internal temps around 200...
Money shot and plated with creamy cole slaw.  Red velvet cake (store bought) for dessert not pictured...
It was a good meal!  The Beagles are anticipating the bones they'll get to enjoy this afternoon.

    @GrateEggspectations got it from the Finch market, 60$ per rack of 4 ribs (17$/kg)

    Also got this bad boy 😎:

    @paqman - Great looking ribs and that A-5 is incredible.  I'm guessing the richness of the cut enables you to amortize the cost/banquet over more than one?? Regardless, living large and about to enjoy it-as it should be!

    It is my second time getting the Miyazaki A5 wagyu, plan was to share this one for Christmas diner (SWMBO+me) but not sure I’ll be able to wait that long.  It is very rich, a piece like this can easily serve 4 as a starter.  There is no way I could eat a full one by myself.  With COVID, our restaurant expenses are way down so that’s a treat, I would usually not pay that much for meat 🤷‍♂️.  The ribs are a much better investment if you ask me but SWMBO wanted the A5 so I obliged 😂.

    Yes, it is in Finch, it was about an hour drive.  They have brisket too and the best selection of rubs in town IMHO.

    Great looking cook!  i have a plate rack frozen weighing in at 7 lbs.  definitely going to have leftovers after thaw and cook.  how do the cooked ribs do in a vac seal and frozen in peoples opinion?

    @slb78

    It works quite well actually but I debone them and slice thin across the grain (perpendicular from the bones).  To reheat, I just place the pouch in a container and then pour boiling water to cover the bag and then wait 5-10 minutes before serving.  I also cube leftovers and pour a handful of cold cubes in soup.
