Ribs and Meatloaf

[begolf25]

Well, here is what the wife, in-laws and myself had for dinner this weekend.

Kept it simple with the ribs. Just some salt, pepper and a small amount of rub.



Made sure to cook them long enough this time. I don't think I had been doing that before. Finished them on the grill for a few minutes. Easlily the most tender, best set of ribs I have made yet.



...and a Ain't Mama's Meatloaf to finish off. I think I scared my mother-in-law when I set this on the table but it sure didn't last long. I am looking forward to lunches all week since I made an extra one. Nothing like a meatloaf sandwhich.

Good lookin' grub Begolf25 , ....That's what I do , an extra meatloaf for some of the worlds greatest
sandwiches. If those ribs taste as good as they look, you had one dandy dinner :)

NePa  use that 7" power Vent you are geting and wrap it in a Dyer vent / Flu pipe and suck the smoke out a window.  

Ribs and Meatloaf sound excellent together.  Also imagine this Smoke Meatloaf chunks in a Sheppeards Pie. My that would be good (sorry reminising from this last weekend)....

Oh yeah.  Bryan,  Excellent cook on those ribs.   I got a few slabs to do this weekend with some baked beans and ABTs.   Thankts for the salivation preparedness.

Nice job Ryan.  I love ribs with Ice's sauce and then finished on the grill.  Simply can't get any better. ;)

Thanks fellas. Ribs were the one thing I had been having trouble with but I think I have a better feel for when they are done now.  I think I am going to try some spare ribs this weekend. Hopefully those will turn out just as good!

In the BS for about 2 1/2 - 3 hours at 210. Then I moved them into my oven because I had some other things to put in the BS.

Cooked them in the oven for about 3 hours @ 250.

then about 15-20 minutes on the grill @ 350.  Did put some foil on the grill to make sure the sauce didn't burn.

Well, I think I've finally decided to try some meatloaf in my smoker...gonna have to wait until the next grocery store trip though (maybe Monday or so).  Also going to have to make some minor changes in the ingredient side since I don't like onions or peppers...maybe replace with mushrooms or something.
