Working on some beef ribs tonight

[AZ Monsoon]

Stopped by the grocery store and decided I wanted to do beef ribs tonight. I don't have 6 hours though so 350 it is. Rubbed with a little soy sauce, then some Stubbs Beef Rub. Smoke via some hickory chunks.

One touch plus fade is looking pretty dark....

Normal color when not hot

I ordered a clone kit of this beer to brew last week and was surprised to see it in the store. Crappy pic, but if my brew turns out anywhere close, I'll be happy. Oh, and the lonely Green Mountain Grill Daniel Boone pellet cooker in the background. I should really clean that up and sell it. Hasn't been used in a long time...

How did the ribs turn out at 350?

[AZ Monsoon]

Wow. These were amazing. Not because of anything I did, more so just because I did it. The normal rub, smoke, and then whatever it took to get them done. They ended up in the oven because I wasn't paying attention and my fire died. They aren't going to win any competitions or anything but awesome for a Monday night cook.

Oops. Put them in foil and added butter and brown sugar prior to placing in the oven. Also, opened up the foil and sauced them for the last 20 minutes or so - but you already knew this.

And there it is!

I helped make (or, watch) a clone of Two-Hearted Ale a while back. I picked it because I knew I could compare it to the real deal later. The one we did was OK but not recognizable as being accurate at all IMO, and this was put together by a shop, using their gear and the owner running the controls etc.

I splurged on some labels and slapped together this name and design:

Cool label. Last night was the first I've tried Two Hearted. I saved one to see how my batch compares. Tasty brew.
