Sunday was on the brisk side, a little breezy and with the threat of rainfall at any moment. What a perfect time to chose to cook some barbecue....roll the dice, take a chance...
Along with a few lengths of Beef Sausage, I've got one slab of spareribs and some poke chawps, seasoned with Mike Mills Magic Dust, check the interwebs for his recipe, it's my go to homemade rub when I don't have any of that fine, fine Simply Marvelous stuff in the cupboard....and of course I'm out of it...dangitall....
Here I'm lighting half a small chimney of RO lump....
I cooked with the Stubby DrumPit, using some Royal Oak Lump and a few fist sized chunks of Black Cherry wood buried within the charcoal basket...
Spread the ashed over lump evenly ontop the charcoal basket...
Then covered with a disc harrow blade...the heavy iron acts just like a heating element in an oven...
Waiting on the temp to stabilize....
Smoking low and slow...the way it ought to be...
My beard does double duty as a wind gauge...SxSE @ 7 miles an hour....Lol!!!
sausage and ribs on the middle rack....
poke chawps on the top rack...
the sausage was done in 30 minutes, the poke chawps took a little longer, about an hour...
ribs an hour in....
time to add some bacon wrapped meatballs....
once the bacon started to cook, an uninvited guest came sniffing around...
bacon was cooked to my liking in about an hour...
then was glazed in sauce, back on the cooker until the glaze set, about 30 minutes...pretty!!!
I then used the same glaze upon the ribs around 3 and a half hours into the cook...
glazed them once more, 15 minutes later...
After four hours the ribs were done...and they were bite off the bone perfection...and messy good!!!
Thanx for checking out my pix....:thumb:
