Beautiful day for a BBQ huh, not supposed to snow in April, I have a few modifications to do, but can't wait to try it out, I did add the 2 thermometers on each side to watch temp more closely.
filled the fire box with lump charcoal
fired up a chimney of lump charcoal on my turkey cooker base, then dumped it into fire box and got it up to 225 degrees
I chose baby back ribs for my 1st attempt, actually got St Louis ribs, didn't know the difference, (this is my 1st time) put a rub on em and threw on grill for 3 hrs, following a recipe I fould online, smoke for 3hrs, rap in foil with 1/2 cup apple juice added for 2 hrs, then unrap for 1hr to crispen up, adding BBQ sauce last 15 mins,
here they are after 3 hrs, looking good to me
rapped em in foil, added the apple juice
here's where the trouble starts, spud came over and we started drinking, I don't know what happened exactly but not watching fire close enough, after I added more charcoal, I watched til I thought it had regulated but must have got hot after I went in house , when I unrapped the foil after 2 hr bottom side was burnt, (why you will see no more pics)
we ate around the burnt part by then my day was ruined, they did taste good though, tender, falling off the bone, and Chops loved the burnt part, will keep working at it and good Q' will be had sooner or later

Sounds like the Magic Chef is going to have to pay a little more attention to what he is doing. Or else don't have Spud over while you're cooking. Looks good though. Can't wait to try some. You should have it almost perfected by the time I am there next.
Nice-I have some lamb ribs I am going to bbq. for dinner. I have the pin pulled on the fire extinguisher and Spud is not here but the draft Arrogant Bastard is pouring real nice right now so all options are on the table.
Wow looks like you've got a good BBQ going there.Ya it's pretty cool weather out there huh?
Can't wait to try some of those ribs.Goes real good with beer! yum.
