What a beautiful few days to have off work! I also had a PC points offer on pork so I made plans with a friend and I picked up a pair of back ribs and a pair of side ribs and got them seasoned with Memphis Dust last night, late last night since I needed to make up a new batch of rub because I was completely out. These two pictures are interesting because it's the same batch of rub on both sets of ribs but they're in different locations in my kitchen and they look different because of the light sources. Under the stove hood which has a 50 Watt Philips rough service incandescent:
Under the fluorescent above the kitchen sink:
I'm not sure what the camera in the phone was white balancing to.
Moving on to this afternoon, a mix of Maple Leaf and Royal Oak lump charcoals:
A light cherry wood smoke just starting up:
Sauced:
Sides:
And dinner is ready:
I've got a little bit of that pork shoulder left and have lots of leftover ribs even after a friend and I gorged ourselves tonight, so that'll carry me through several days of work once I go back on Saturday.
I think next will be chicken or beef, or maybe lamb since I've had quite a bit of pork recently. For some reason I've been craving braised lamb shanks so if the weather deteriorates, maybe I'll do that.
