Most of you know I am horrible about taking pictures... well I didn't disappoint. I once again didn't take any pictures of the case of ribs I cooked last weekend for the Wood Splittin' Herf!!! However, Ogre snapped a pic or two and sent me this one:
This was taken just before I put them in foil, so still no pic of the finished racks. Fail on my part once again

..and this thread reminds me....I gotta break the smoker out from winter hibernation!!....maybe Sunday if no rain!!
[Reply]
This weekend I have on tap a couple of items...I am going to do a rack of beef ribs
that I somehow managed to find with some actual meat on them. Piggly Wiggly markets
2 products, their skinned down to shiners "beef ribs" and a "Boneless Beef Short Ribs"
which is what they call the meat that they stole from me then sold me a rib carcass for
$1.99 a lb. But the Boneless flankens aren't terribly expensive either, so maybe I can
combine the two cuts on the smoker for a nice variety of the same thing, lol.
I talked to the butcher and told him I was gonna want him to save me some actual beef ribs
in one piece later on in April, and he said, 'OK, that's fine.' SO finally I will get to actually
smoke the beef ribs I talk about all the time.....where was I??
OH, yeah. Beef ribs, and if the cool front actually produces cool temps, some Hamburgers and some chicken.
If it just stays hot, I am gonna stop at the ribs. I still have a triple rack pack of small bone spareribs in the freezer
that I need to get done soon, but they will stay frozen for at least a month. I need to start re-evaluating the freezer
and getting ready for Sprummer. I think I am gonna get off the baby back kick this year and go back to plain ol
spares.

There is maybe nothing more disappointing than a rack of beef ribs with no meat on them... and maybe nothing better than a meaty rack. I hope your's are awesome. I have a rack in the freezer from the last cow I killed that I may have to cook this weekend!!

"Away" for us is putting the smoker under a tarp.

I'm going to put together an order for pellets from BBQr's Delight. With a 400 # purchase, it's then $7 for a 20# bag plus freight. Way better than $20/bag for Traeger.

Dom - did you cure the pork belly prior to smoking? Or did you put it straight on the smoker?

No cure, marinated then straight to smoker.
I plan on cutting it into chunks and serving it with a hoisin based dipping sauce.

No pics = fail but today I did a 15# brisket for my rehersal dinner in two weeks along with some chicken thighs and wings.

You know Dom, until you posted that I had no idea there was such a dish in the world.
I shop at a LARGE ethnic Supermarket at times, you name it and they sell it, no matter
what country you eat from. Well I was looking for pork bellies, but all I could get were
these strips or blocks of belly. It is hard to turn them into bacon, but I try and I do.
And now you come along and tell me they are actually cut for an asian dish. A little
web research later confirms this. So I have a pack out to thaw in the fridge and on
Saturday I am going to make that dish. Like I need a bunch of fat in my veins.

Without lids, it's just a grill.

Picked up 2 cases of butts last night for a little cook I'm doing this weekend for the church. Haven't had time to grind up/stuff any venison sausage, but I do have some wild hog sausage left in the freezer that may have to make an appearance this weekend for the guys who come over and hang out while I'm cooking

Those ribs look delicious! Care to share the recipe for the glaze?
Pork Loin Back ribs are going on sale for $1.99/pound tomorrow and I'm picking up a few for when I get back from vacation.
