Tomorrow after the Sunday morning meeting with the big guy I will be firing up my fist smoke.  Ribs will be the special of the day. This afternoon I applied my own rub on two slabs and swamp venom on a third. After pre heatin the BS I will smoke for 4 hours. I will alternate apple and a draft pick to be determined later. After 4 hours smoke an additional haour or so then FTC for an hour. On one I will apply a bit of bbq sauce and grill for a few mins. With any luck a big smile shortly after.  Does this seem about right? I'll try to take a few pics. Can anyone attach a link on how to post pics. Thx.

Here is a link for your photos tomorrow. http://s84.photobucket.com it is free, you just need to establish an account.

Your time is going to depend on the temperatures you are going to use. Iceman and others have posted pretty extensively on ribs - good resources here for temps etc.

Looking forward to the pics. good luck and enjoy.

Good [oint. With briskets internal temp is used, but what about ribs. Is there any guidline, or just best guess. I was planning on more of sampling to determine. I think it s/b about 35-40 degrees here tomorrow.

[oint = point.  I can spell.

My Bradley rib experience is not great results so I wont bore you with those stories but there are some postings here that i need to start following. Honestly, i am still looking at the bone to see when the meat just starts to pull back.  One real recommendation is Iceman sauce on your ribs.  Makes my ribs good and would make good ribs spectacular.

Thanks WCK. I have seen that sauce somewhere. I will look for it. I appreciate all of your comments the past few weeks.

Instant read thermopen is a good rib temp tester.  1/4" of exposed bone is a good visual as WCK mentioned.  When picking up the ribs, if the far end bends down, that is a good indicator, 4 hour of smoking at 210 deg with 2 hours in foil should give you a completely cooked feast.  Won't be able to use the end bend test though, the bones will fall out and the meat will fall off. Some may say that is over cooked.  ;D

Ribs are cooking. I do not have a rib rack. I have them bone down. Is this correct?

Thanks Lilsmoker, lets try again.





The ribs were great, but not as fall off the bone as I had hoped. Guess I will have to keep on trying. Cant wait.
