I've got some family coming to visit on Saturday so we are BBQing.. I've got 4 slabs of ribs marinating and it smells so good.. I can't wait. That is all. :p
 
We made ribs on the grill over the 4th. I live in one of the areas of the country where good pork is easy to come by (Pennsylvania Dutch area). But, our last couple of sides of ribs came from Aldi's of all places...and I must say, they were AWESOME.



Slow cooking over low, even heat....that's the key to ribs.



ENJOY JD!

I'm doing 2 racks of traditional bbq, 1 teriyaki, and 1 spicy honey mustard ginger so we will have a nice verity of flavors.



 
I purchased a Chargriller Pro horizontal offset charcoal smoker from Lowes about a month ago. I did a trial run of ribs on the 4th using the 3-2-1 method, and they were perfect. Smoking with charcoal produces the distinctive pink smoke ring in the meat, which I never got with my electric smokers.



Try smoking a meatloaf sometime -- it's surprisingly good.
 
Dad and I finished his smoker finally. We made it from a 250 gallon propane tank. It should hold a few slabs... :D



We are going to try it out this weekend also...

Hang mine in a SS 55gal drum (no vent holes on the bottom)also hang, ducks, chickins, leg of lamb.

Before hanging the meat, toss in a bunch of hardwood, about a third full, fire it up and let burn for an hr or so.

Hang the meat, put the lid on and come back in two hrs, works great.
