I'd lean towards the dining out option, and try new places. It's probably even cheaper to do so, than grocery shopping per meal. ...

[quote]they don’t appreciate[/quote]I get it. BBQ and outdoor cooking is very prideful, everyone wants to be right, and king of the cul de sac. I've only ever wanted to help, and offer a little advice over the years. Sometimes the bs isn't worth hanging around. [quote]former World Champion[/quote]...
Couple things: 275 isn't a bad temp, especially for baby backs. I know you cooked StL, but try some baby's next time. Don't soak your wood. Some of that "smoke" is just a little steam. You'll get a better, cleaner burn with the dry wood. Let them go for a few hours, spray with a lite mist of wa...

[quote]This is the exact video I posted in OP[/quote]I'm sorry, I honestly didn't watch the video. I saw the Tuffy reference, and figured that it was a video of him cooking them.

Since geaux4tigers didn't think I provided any help, here goes.... No rib should be tough and chewy, unless that's what you really like to eat. Before cooking any style of ribs, ask yourself, "what is the end texture that I'm trying to achieve?" Just because someone online says that they should be ...

Hey guys, it's been a while. I hope ya'll are doing well, and trying to enjoy this hot arse summer. It's bbq season, and I'll randomly read some of the bbq threads on here, and this one got my attention. So, let's address a few things in here: [quote]Are they supposed to be tough and chewy?

[quote]do i treat i base off their combined weight, or individul?[/quote]Individual. You can't combine the weight, because they will cook independently, and probably finish at different times.

Thanks t00f Speaking of rubs and seasonings......t00f, have you seen my socials? It's coming!!! :dude:...
The best advice that I can give you, when first starting out, is to just keep it simple. Don't overcomplicate it. You and your family want to enjoy your first rack, and get better each cook after. A messed up rack will discourage you. A couple bullet points: Find racks with nice, even thickness...

This is a brisket that cooked that was only rubbed, smoked, wrapped towards the end, and finished when it felt good. It was never on the "clock". [img]https://i.imgur.com/RhMPbMk.jpg[/img]...

I don't get it, and maybe I never will. Why do people still rely on set times to know when bbq is done? I've never done that, and never will. Even on ribs....
