I did 4 racks of ribs yesterday for an early Father’s Day BBQ. 7/10, and then I scorched the sauce, but I think my family’s standards are lower than mine so it’s all good.

Goddamn I love ribs.

Going to do a turkey breast. Yeah, weird time of year but we've been having a hankering for a thanksgiving type dinner.

gently caress me though, it will be 95 out combined with 100% humidity.

Three racks of ribs are on the WSM. Overnight rest in the fridge with homemade rub, smoking on apple and pecan wood chunks.

Doing my first low and slow smoke ever. I’m on a Weber 22” charcoal grill. I bought 2 racks of super premium heritage baby back ribs from Savenors in Boston so I am praying I don’t screw them up. They was pricey.

Seems to be going well so far right now I’m ~80 minutes in, the applewood has stopped smoking and the probe reads 228 about 1” above the ribs. Got up to 240 near the beginning but not for very long maybe 15 or 20 minutes? I’m watching it like a hawk.

My only concern is that with the water pan the grill is a bit crowded with only about 0.5 to 1” at most between the racks so it may take longer for them to cook through.

Rotated the racks at the 120 min mark and the air temp in the grill shot up to 263. It’s coming down now though.

I think they still have a ways to go though.

e: note to self. 13x9 for a water or drip pan is too large for this grill

e2: took them out after almost 5 hours. Absolutely lovely.

Anyone here have a lot experience with an Oklahoma Joe Highland? More specifically a modified OKH? I've been looking into offsets to compliment my 18" WSM for larger cooks and I saw a highly modified one near by for $500.

The modifications included gasket kits for both the chamber and fire box, locking latches for the cook chamber, charcoal basket, tuning plate, water pan, a flame boss 200 with wifi.

Worth it? Still a piece of junk? General opinions?

Alrighty. Just looking for recommendations for a decent propane grill under $500. I'd like at least 3 burners. So far the Broil King Signet looks good. A lot of reviews for CharBroil grills talk about how the innards rusted even with a cover.

Check craigslist or facebook market place for an older Weber Genesis. They're great grills and parts are readily available online in case it might need something. You usually find ripping deals, $25-$100 for one that is leaps and bounds better than new grills sold at most big box stores for 5 times the price.

I have a CharBroil and my one complaint is that there is no low setting (which makes sense given the name). The burners go from high to super high. Even with just one burner on it's lowest setting the grill gets up to 400, all 3 going and it's like 750+. Great for steaks but bad for basically anything else. I bust out the charcoal grill if I want a low temp.

I haven't had any issues with rusting even with a cover, but I live in CA so it's not humid or rainy at all.

Got a huge frozen wild boar shoulder from a buddy a few months ago (it is now pretty drat freezer-burned thanks to the bag popping open at some point). Figured it be perfect for a sous vide + smoke since boar is so lean.

Tentative plan is:

1. Let the shoulder thaw until it gets to fridge temp. Dry off and salt for ~12hr or whatever.
2. Cut in half, rub, and bag - it's really long and don't see another way to make it actually fit in a bag besides cutting it
3. Sous Vide @ 165 for 24 hours (kind of guessing on time)
4. Take out of bath, reserve drippings, dry off and re-rub
5. Smoke @ 300 for 90min or until a nice bark forms

Anyone attempted this before? I'm fairly new to sous-viding so don't really know the best way to tackle this. Would love some feedback.

Oh also - don't really have a sous vide container that's big enough for this monstrosity so might just use a home depot bucket or something. Is that too deep for the circulator to maintain accurate temp?

Going to let you know as I've done a number of 'bbq & smoke' SV things. The smoke isn't going to be as prevalent as it is when smoking from raw. As for a cooking vessel I bought a cooler and cut a hole in it to use for big/long cooks. It's more efficient for the circulator.
This is the one I use - https://www.amazon.com/Coleman-Can-...748610593&psc=1

If you want more of a smoke you could smoke 1st then SV. I've always thought this was silly though as you'd have to put it back on the smoke to get the bark. Additionally, I've never cared for final temp stuff, it was just about getting the bark.

As for time, Kenji hhas pork shoulder (5 to 7 pounds total) for pulled pork which he does 165°F (74°C) for more traditionally textured pulled pork, for 18-24hrs.

I was actually thinking about cooling in an ice bath before putting on the smoker, figuring that the cold meat will pull more smoke that way. Do you think that would be different than smoke>SV>smoke?

Seconding this. Even if you had to replace parts Weber sells pretty much everything for their line up. My Weber is probably 25 years old.

Glad your first smoke went well, but keep in mind that part of the glory of smoking is the ability to take a cut of meat that is otherwise nearly inedible, and make it amazing. Smoke more cheap things, rather than fewer expensive things.

I usually just use the grill to sear steaks or burgers hot and fast, getting an afternoon to hang out and mind the grill was a fathers day present. Not going to happen too often. But now I know I can get a solid ~230 degrees for > 5 hours (about 1/5 the coals were still uncharred when I pulled the ribs) with minimal attention so I may be able to 'set it and forget it' with only an occasional check in and do more frequent smokes in between other chores/errands.

Any suggestions on how to smoke country-style pork "ribs"? I know they're not actually ribs, but a buddy grabbed a bunch while he was at the butcher today. Slow and low like a butt/ribs, or something different? Going to be doing wings and baby backs on my WSM, just not sure if that approach is best for this type of cut as well.

Amazing Ribs suggests not cooking them up over 140, other places say do it. I'd welcome any advice.

I'd go with slow and low. One of those mystery meats depending on what the butcher calls it.

I've had tough ones and tender ones. many times in the same package. I agree with low and slow, just to be sure. Cannot overdo them and if you do, hey pulled pork, eh?
