I went to my local grocery store (Harris Teeter) and asked the butcher if he had beef ribs that weren't cut. He went to the back and brought out a vacuum sealed pack of four plates. I just asked for one plate as this was my first try at beef ribs.

Summer days are limited.

At least once oer week should be the goal forreal.

Ribs on. Couple of hours to go.

Too busy eating to take a finished picture. I trimmed the ribs square and then smoked the rib tips hanging separately - the ribs were good but the tips were maybe better.

 

[pmatic]

Not bad for the first time.

Looks good pmatic

Suggestion, putting a water pan in the bottom barrel of your kettle. Not sure if you did or not, I can't really tell from the pics.

It promotes moisture and helps regular temps.

Duly noted.

I also need to drill some screws into my PBC so it can hold a second rack.

School me on wood chips...

Do I "need" a plank for salmon?

You don't NEED it but it just offers a different flavor profile.

You can cook salmon right on the grill grates. (Indirect heat)

If you are using wood chips, make sure you soak them FIRST before throwing them into the hot coals. (During the indirect cooking process)



This website is a great resource. Study it, learn about fire and zone cooking.

Think I'm making ribs tomorrow

 

[Velle47]

Just added the egg to my setup

 

[Velle47]

U

first cook off the egg

 

[elpablo21]

Nice setup

 

[aepps20]

Be careful on housing the egg in a wood table if you run it hot. Lots of stories of fires. I house mine in a metal table for that very reason. The feet help but be very careful.
