My favorite thing to cook. Makes everyone think I'm a master chef when I do baby backs.
Wicked Good charcoal, biggest chunks on the bottom.
Bigger chunks next...can see the cardboard starters.
Added in some hickory chunks..
Followed by the smallest pieces on top..
Added the ribs.. medium Egg, if I roll them up they fit much easier
After 1 hour,.. every hour misted with apple juice/apple cider vinegar mix.
2 hours.
3 hours
4.5 hours, brought em inside.
Coated with a 50/50 mix of Blues Hog regular and Blues Hog Tennessee Red then back on the Egg for 30 minutes.
Did that twice, and here is the finished result
Yum.

That roll up idea....is a first for me......I think is great......looks like you could have fitted a third one on the .medium....Congrats!! -
Klag,
I may try a rolled up rack on my mini... i just did 3 racks sunday on my large and they cooked for 6.0 hrs @ 250 dome temp talking about good mmmmmmm...... :laugh: -
Nice space saver and good lookin' grub! I can't wait to try this.
-
This might be a dumb question but how do you get the started lit with them buried? I usually drop them on top and get my fire going on top. I have read that many folks start from the bottom though.
-
Yep, 3 racks will fit easily when rolled up!
-
when cooked that way, do they lay flat when they're done and unrolled? and what size egg are the 3 on?
-
Will a mini run for 6 hours at 250? To get a rolled up rack on it I think the setup would be:
remove fire ring and insert fire brick
place CI skillet on fire brick
grate on skillet
ribs on rack
I might have to try that one. -

I lit the little starter thingies right after I took that picture, then piled the rest of the coals/wood on after it was already lit. -

Medium will fit 3 rolled up racks. I don't think they lay flat when finished, but I slice them into individual ribs and put onto a big platter for serving. Makes it easier to eat, IMO.
