Hanging Ribs in a Weber Smokey Mountain

[@SJCOOKS]

nothing better than a hanged rib on the wsm!! I usually double hook mine, in one my wsm hanged rib video, one almost fell and the 2nd hook saved it! lol. great cook my friend, going to cook me up some ribs this weekend.

Totally agree! I’ll have to check out your channel. Thanks for watching and commenting. 👌🏻

Baby Backs are the little ribs restaurants get and overcharge you for....the ones we want are called Pork Back or Pork Back Loin depending on your store. A yellow mustard binder doesn't affect the flavor as it burns off and it helps keep most of your rub on so you can build a great bark and color. Nice stuff there.

Howdy from Montana, I take used wine bottle corks and soak them in rubbing alcohol and then use them as a fire starter. Works great

[@SmokedMidwestBBQ]

Thanks for the tip! 👍 👌🏻

At the end of your video, the only thing that looks better than those ribs is that epic view over your shoulder.

[@SmokedMidwestBBQ]

I agree, lucky to have the view in my backyard. Thanks for watching!

Dude.. You need to put up more videos.. Two per month and YPP before you know it. Good content bro.

[@SmokedMidwestBBQ]

Appreciate that! I have a new video dropping Sunday. ✅

Would cooking these on the regular grates without water pan do the same thing as hanging them? Ive cooked a bunch of ribs , but never cooked them hanging

[@SmokedMidwestBBQ]

Yeah it would be similar as the fat would still drop into the coals providing additional flavor. I make ribs on the rack without the water pan all the time and they turn out great. 👌🏻

[@Shane76.]

@Smoked Midwest BBQ thanks for the response and nice video. I'm debating on buying the rack or not. If it will do the same thing I don't know if it would be worth it. The rack would let you cook more ribs. You think it's worth it?

[@SmokedMidwestBBQ]

I think it’s worth it, but try cooking some ribs without the water pan first and see what you think. ✅

Does the ribs closest to the fire dry out? I don’t understand how they cook evenly.

[@SmokedMidwestBBQ]

Oddly enough, they don’t and it cooks very evenly. I’m not a scientist so I can’t explain how it works, but it does.

Five and a half hours!🤣🤣🤣🤣 looked like you needed a large glass of water to help swallow it down!?🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@SmokedMidwestBBQ]

That’s cute, you must be new to bbq. Thanks for watching and Merry Christmas!
