2nd Annual Smoker Party

richardvoyageur · July 29, 2012, 10:32:56 AM

My newly modified smoker needed to be put through its paces and I had a perfect opportunity with our 2nd annual smoker party at a friend's house. I really rocked the ribs there last year so I wanted to keep it rolling. I recently added new feet, new faceplate (cracked the other one), 2nd element with switch on the front and of course my homemade single probe PID in an old power supply case :).

Anyway, the ribs ended up being really killer (if done a bit earlier than I'm used to due to the extra heat!). All 8 racks were hit with Jan's Rub 12 hours prior to smoking and I went with a hickory/apple blend. Here you go guys, what do you think?

Just before foiling:

Done with foil, hitting it with some sauce for final 20 minutes (they were already really well cooked due to 2nd element

I believe this is the Vermont Pig Candy going on these two

They were really quite done as you can tell by the bones. I basically did a 3-2-0.15 as they were really quite done ;D Next time I'll cut down the crutch to 1 or 1.5 hours I think.

They were incredibly juicy and had a great bark on them. 3 racks of Sweet Baby Rays, 3 racks of Apple Butter and 2 racks of Vermont Pig Candy with real maple syrup.

The only way that gets any better looking is if there was an icy mug of BEER and a hot blonde in a bikini handing me a plate full of those ribs !! 8)
