We had ribs and pizza for Sunday dinner. The ribs were half Spade L ribs/pork rub and half my homemade rub; we had them dry.

I tip my hat to fusnik and FN; the Spade L for ribs/pork is really good.Originally posted by FN Phat View PostI, as well, did ribs yesterday. 2 racks were blessed with JL's rub and the third was hit with Spade L Pork rub (thanks Fusnik!)."What are you prepared to do?" - Jimmy Malone

I did ribs this weekend. I was at Costco and the packaged baby backs just looked too good. I was concerned as it started off freezing rain and was really cold all day. But I followed a 2-2-1 method more or less with fine results. They came out a bit overcooked for my liking but everyone else loved them.
I did each rack with a different combo. From front row to back row (Cooked Picture):
Sweet and Sassy Rub with Sweet Baby Rays. This was the favorite by far. Sweet and Sassy is a local BBQ Co. First time I tried their rub and it was very good. I want to use it on some pork shoulder next.
Pork Barrel BBQ Rub and Sauce. I don't know if anyone else watches Shark Tank but these guys are from DC and were on the first season. They sell their stuff locally in grocery stores and the Co now. It's a bit spicy with just a tiny bit of sweetness. Not really tangy either. More savory than anything else. Not my favorite but second favorite of the bunch.
Zedge's Rib Rub and Brown Sugar BBQ Sauce. Not a fan of this rub. Anything that says World's Best should be a clue I suppose. These were the least favorite of the bunch by far. In fact everyone was putting Sweet Baby Rays on them to eat them. I don't think the combo with the sauce did it any favors as they contrasted more than complimented. Probably won't use Zedge again though regardless.
Rubbed, trimmed and ready to go:

The top rack (Zedge) way too done, it broke when I removed it from the grill. It was the smallest rack though too.

Decent smoke all around. Juicy.

I was surprised I didn't burn through pellets like I thought. In fact the hopper was full of Mesquite and I only used 2-3 inches given the low temps.Last edited by Surfah; 02-27-2013, 07:36 AM."Nobody listens to Turtle."-Turtlesigpic

I think we have the same granite countertops. And I think it's time for me to smoke some more ribs - those look delicious."It's devastating, because we lost to a team that's not even in the Pac-12. To lose to Utah State is horrible." - John White IV

Looks delish, Surfah. Way to go."There is no creature more arrogant than a self-righteous libertarian on the web, am I right? Those folks are just intolerable."

That's odd.Originally posted by Coach McGuirk View PostJust an FYI, the St. Louis style ribs I picked up from Costco this weekend were poorly trimmed and had the membrane still on. Be advised.
Strangely enough, the Costco in Orem has had a steady stream of huge beautiful packer-style briskets for the last 2-3 weeks. Best I have ever seen them carry."There is no creature more arrogant than a self-righteous libertarian on the web, am I right? Those folks are just intolerable."
