Labor day smoke on Performer! I finally got the nerve up to try this (and Whole foods had ribs on sale for labor day). So I have had my performer for about 6 months now and done burgers and what not. I was ready to do my first low and slow on Labor day weekend. I was going to start the grill at 10am, but other stuff got in the way and wound up starting at 2pm and getting the temp right by 3pm or so. (not good!) I wound up finishing under flashlight.
So I chose baby back ribs for first low and slow. They were ready to eat about 10 pm. But so what, they were awesome! (Hint: Don't start grill for 7 hour smoke at 2pm.) Live and learn!
I used a Steven Raichlen recipe. Thanks Steven!
I got a smoke ring on the first try, didn't expect that. They were almost too pretty to eat.
