Ribs prepped

[NCost]

So I got the ribs out to prep for tomorrow. First half went well:

The other two racks were rancid and smelled horrible. Have to be there at 8am to get them replaced at the butcher so I can still get them enough time w/ rub on them before going into the smoker at 2pm.

hmm, linked image not showing, wonder why.

They are in the smoker.

Those look so good! How long do you smoke them for?

Bad luck on the ones that were bad.

4 hours between 225-245 deg.

I'll then finish them on the grill at 600 deg to carmelize the Sweet Baby Rays. I'll leave 2 racks dry though as I prefer them dry with some carolina sauce on them.

This reminds me to do ribs this weekend.

mmm....looks good.
Now I want some ribs.

Do you normally rub them the night before? Doing it the night before might start making your ribs into ham because of the salt in the rub which would pull the moisture out of the meat. Just saying.

been doing this way for 10 years so its not a problem. i make my own rub so i control the salt content.

I will be doing 4 shoulders this coming friday (1 week from today) and then on Saturday 5 racks of ribs.

We're having a Smoke out at my BM and I offered to provide the food....pulled pork and ribs.

I'll try to add pictures of the process.

OK, prepped two of the shoulders;

Each are 15lb whole shoulders. I have two more I need to that are also 15lbs each. Three will go to the BM for the customer appreciation day. If any of you are in the NW Ohio area, go to Port Royal Cigars in Findlay from 2-6pm on Saturday Oct 27th for some good grub. Also 20% off all boxes or assortments of 20 or more sticks.

More images as I progress through this.

Not the best picture as it was starting to rain and cold...but they are in the smoker.
