220 degrees for three hours with apple wood and then wrap them up for an hour. Slap some sauce on them and a couple minutes on the grill.

Brother,

Most excellent.

You've done this before. If a man can't follow your instructions and turn out perfect pork ribs, he should stay away from the pit.

Care to share your dry rub?

uh, um,,,, for those of us who've never seen this,,,, what's going on? I see liquid there and possibly a 'double-boiler' so you ain't "roasting" them.

Nor 'dry-roasting'.....

And no, I've never seen a peanut tree/plant/bush/machine this far up North, either.

Green peanuts, 80 qrt pot with basket, two bottles of seasoning, 1/4 cup cayenne pepper, 1/2 cup of salt. Boil 3 hours. Cut off gas. Rest 1 hour. Bag and put in refrigerator immediately.

I have eaten so many today I'm in the hurt locker.

EDIT: sorry men. That is for 4 gallon bags of peanuts

Yeah...not good. WTF happened right there?

E

Took the lid off and went inside to get a pan.....came back and the whole barrel was on fire. Tried to get the grate out and was burning my arm hair and melting my gloves. When the Thermoprobe from the smoke temp station exploded I figured it was a lost cause and put the lid back on and closed the vent to smother it out. Pissed is an understatement.

One tablespoon of everything. If you don't like the heat cut the cayenne pepper in half.

I don't know why I put a line through the black pepper. Maybe it's to remind me that pepper doesn't come in a can? I use fresh ground.

Yeah I don't know what that 862925 thing is either. Freaking alztimers?
 
The woman threw a wrench in the rib plan yesterday. She said that she didn't want to make tater salad until this morning. So we had venison burgers with pulled pork and smoked cheddar cheese with tater tots.
So the ribs are ready for a slather of sauce and the grill.
Pictures to follow.
Stop drooling!

Mr. DarnYankeeUSMC,

Here is my rub. This is for pork and dark chicken.

I might have posted this already.

I shall not stop drooling, Sir. That sounds like a FINE dinner.

I will try that. I am a BBQ experimentor. There's not too much that I won't eat. Not a big fan of the North Carolina Vinegar but I will eat it.

Share what your prep for smoker and your target "remove from smoker" temp if you would.

No problem... shoulders get a thin coat of dijon mustard then kosher salt and fresh ground pepper, then my dry rub. Let sit for 24 hours in the fridge. Smoker fire box gets a head start with lump charcoal and some oak sticks that are about 2"x2"x8" and I'll add a handfull at a time of whatever chips or wood I have around. This time was pecan, but my two favorites are pear and peach. Target smoker box temp is 250. Meat goes in, fat cap side up, until it hits the 'stall' which is usually around 165 degrees internal temp. Wrap shoulders individually in foil with a shot of apple cider vinegar. Return to 250 degree heat (smoker, gas grill, or oven; doesn't matter since it is wrapped in foil now). Internal finish temp is 205 degrees. Remove from heat and let rest still wrapped tight for an hour or so, or until you can't stand waiting any more. Unwrap and shred, the blade bone should pull out easy and meat will be super tender. I shred with two big salad serving forks. I like mine on a soft roll with a touch of Famous Dave's Devil Spit and some slaw. Or with fresh onion and dill pickle. Or carnitas style on a toasted corn tortilla with red onion, sliced radish, and cilantro with a squeeze of lime. Or in mac n cheese. Or straight out of the container from the fridge.

Semper Fidelis,
Aaron

Thank you, Sir.

Hickory, apple, white oak, red oak, wild cherry and soft maple are what I work with. Don't have others readily available here.

I agree on stall temp. Takes awhile to break 170.

I cook through the stall. If cooking on the Weber, I wrap in foil at 192, remove, put in cooler wrapped in towels for 2 hours. If I'm using the pit, no wrap. The rest is done letting the pit temp coast down.

Gonna do your method next cook.
Thanks again,
E
