Mustard Coated Ribs

[MrHoss]

I normally coat my ribs in a little olive or grape seed oil but decided to try something different today. I coated the ribs in a thin layer of yellow mustard. Done this on butts before and I know plenty do it for ribs.

A couple days ago I got a metal drill bit to bore out the rivets on a bowl that had lost all her vents. It was the wrong type of drill bit for the job and after a PM to Buckie I went and got a titanium bit today. It worked like a charm. The kettle in question was acquired from Michigan back in November with the help of @LightningBoldtz...who also subsequently grabbed me the new set of vents. I cleaned up the legs and attempted the triangle this morning but ran out of time:





Cooked the ribs at 300-325f lid temp using a combo of RO Blue Bag and Coshell with pecan chunks tossed in.

Just before foiling:



Sauced and done:





It was up to 6 degrees Celsius today and mostly sunny. Sitting out on the back deck was a nice change.....the hound was liking it too:



That cooker on the end is the most beat and cost me the least but damn.....I'd take her over the others in a heart beat. I had originally thought to gift that Kettle to someone but now realize she is mine for life most probably. The Kettle has many rust wounds, the handle is a little crooked and the lid is quite warped. No one not afflicted with Weberitis would appreciate Laverne and I could not pass her on unless it was appreciated.

Nice looking bones, Hoss.  I used to do the mustard coating on ribs before applying rub ... now I use EVOO instead.  Like it better.

amazing what you can do with a 45 yr old grill....

I noticed the ashpan mod as well, what did you do there?

That's a JJ ash pan I put in to catch any grease dripping down....I didn't want to get the old one any dirtier than it already is.

@MacEggs I like EVOO better too.

Hoss those look super, I'm ready for breakfast.

Damn those ribs looks perfect! Sweet dog too.

I know what you're saying about the beat up ones, I just finished rehabbing my old beat up kettle, and I love it more than any other grill I have. It's like rescuing an abused dog at the pound, no one else wants 'em, but treat 'em right and they'll love all the more for it. R-R-R
