This time was atore bought.

It Depends on my effort level. I have made it from scratch beforeand have used Grace's paste other times.

I want to try mplsdunk 's version of the sauce soon.

 

[jrp44]

Any good store bought ones? I still like the Caribbean jerk sauce from bww on some wings, but wanna try something new

 

[mplsdunk]

Walkers wood is a good paste. Idk if they make Bbq sauce, but you could use the paste to make a regular Bbq sauce jerk.

Why you no grill the corns?

I put it in foil and left it on the warming rack. Didn’t put it on the grates this time.

Yeah, I’ve not got a lot else to do at the moment and the weather is nice. Got some ribs best before tomorrow too so they’ll be next.

I’m going to need more charcoal!

Lowe's has an "Easter" sale going on. You might want to see their Circular.

But keep posting, looking forward to the meals.

i need to go out and get some lump and get my egg going. This is like the only time in the past few years where i havent had 50-100lb on hand.

 

[kdawg]

Just ready for some sauce.

They’re not as dark as they look in the photo - a pretty good dark golden brown - a little darker on the bottom (they’re on their side there) because the fire wasn’t great to start so I cracked the lid and it shot up for 5 minutes.

They’re now in foil with sauce and butter and sugar.

 

[kdawg]

That was tasty. Next time going to cut them a little smaller though, more small bits would be amazing.

 

[kdawg]

Ribs on today.

 

[DCAllAfrican]

Good work Konnan

What did you season those with?

 

[kdawg]

I’m not Konnan!

Anyway, I just had a packet of Nando’s (local chain of chicken restaurants) BBQ rub - just a reasonable mix of spices with a little heat. Wrapped them in cling film in the fridge overnight.
Meant to cost them in mustard first but I forgot...

 

[plansb]

i dont think the mustard coat prior to rub makes a difference. IMO.

I always wondered about those barrel smokers, do the ribs ever get close to falling off the hook? I look my ribs very tender (overdone and falling apart), can you still smoke them to that extreme?

 

[kdawg]

I like them like that so I'm seeing how tender they get. I'll tell you in a bit. I haven't had anything fall off yet - and I've tried some pretty heavy stuff hooked on.

****

looks amazing

 

[kdawg]

Update, so they look amazing - bend test and they were cracking nicely. I wouldn't want to carry them on tongs like that but when they're hanging vertically it feels pretty solid - you could pull the bones apart if you wanted to but I don't think that there's enough weight to make them fall off.

Sauce on and should be ready in 30 minutes.

 

[plansb]

Beautiful. I just picked up some charcoal and ribs (and others) to throw on my egg over the next few days. You inspired me.

 

[kdawg]

Pretty tasty. The last bone got a bit crunchy on the outside - but even that one was still pretty good. The rest were nice and tender

 

[plansb]

Thanks for the inspiration kdawg yours look better. The rack I got was a little too fatty
