I HACKED Rodney Scott's WORLD FAMOUS BBQ SAUCE

And yes, I did do one 5lb slab your way X! Can't wait to try it. Sleep will have to wait. BBQ is much more relaxing and fulfilling anyway. I absolutely 💯 love your videos and I derive a lot of inspiration for unique cooks from you.

[@whitechris720]

I am cooking (for Dad's on Father's day) 16 slabs of ribs tomorrow along with butts and chickens. I will mop for 1/2 to 3/4 of the cook time. Then I use a thicker sauce and raise the heat a bit on the chickens and ribs. The butts, I will probably pull them apart after bringing to temperature. Then into a pan with the mop sauce. Again raise the heat a bit so it simmers (kind of a burnt end effect). I may try a rub sometime instead of the thicker sauce. Thanks for the idea.

His BBQ sauce is a mopping sauce that he puts on towards the end of the cook I believe. Also I noticed that he burns his wood in a burn barrel and transfers the coals when they have 20-50% left to burn. So I think this helps not over smoking and having the meat be acrid and bitter.

[@curtlyons9235]

I’ve never worked with Rodney, but I worked with Maurice Bessinger and he used the same method with whole hogs. Burning the wood in a separate pit is to better regulate the temperature as when you add wood directly to the hog the temperature drops drastically then rises drastically once it catches if that makes sense. Hence why you have to know where to put the coals so the meat cooks evenly and doesn’t dry out. I know Maurice and the rest of his family used Hickory and I think Rodney prefers walnut (if I’m not mistaken) but will use what he can get his hands on. After having both I will say rodneys que is better by far, but Maurice had the hash and rice that will keep you coming back.

no such think as over smoked, just over bad smoked

it shows I don't focus enough when watching cooking videos. 1 month ago I made it and commented on how great the sauce is. I didn;'t add the cayenne or peppers. But here is where I just noticed where I didn't pay attention because I put the sauce on shredded brisket. I didn't watch the whole video. I dumped the rub in with the sauce to boil it. I just watched your whole video and see you used the rub later. Hhhmmmm. I stand by that is still tastes great.

[@jackbrown2752]

what are your other two of your top 3 rib recipes?

[@ronniegillaspy]

In Texas, as you probably know, we only use a dry rub. If someone wants bbq sauce it’s on the side. Basic rub is S-P-G (some add a few extra ingredients to rub) Some use mustard binder, some don’t. And that doesn’t change taste anyways. Would like to see a control of basic Texas style vs. Rodney Scott style. 🤔

[@amberjones9520]

In the carolinas we mainly do pulled pork. In my opinion theres 3 main important factors. First is smoking the whole hog so theres different cuts of meats mixed in together. Another one is the right combinations of seasoning and mop sauce. Not everyone here mops though. Some ppl use a vinegar apple juice mix and just spray it out of a bottle. The third is smoking it low and slow. Im by far no expert but i have learned that from other ppl.

[@zulu6756]

[@w240p]

Looks good but you skipped the wrapping step which is why they were clearly not fall off the bone. If you can hold a rack up and it stays horizontal or have to use a knife to seperate the sections... thats gonna be dry and chewey. Kinda like doing the 3-2-1 method but skipping the 2 and 1. Use foil if you want complete fall off the bone style or paper if you want "competition" style with a slight bite.

[@RossMalagarie]

Pitmaster X thanks for all the great vids. I will try your "Rodney" sauce. The only thing is I will baste my ribs the whole cook, ( I do a 3,2,1, 3hrs on grill low and slow smoke at 150F/65C in my pellet grill smoker with no direct flame, slide cover closed, then I put the ribs in a pan with the "Rodney" sauce and wrap in aluminum foil and back on the grill no direct flame, with the fire box cover closed, for 2hrs at 300F/148C, then I take the ribs out of the pan and baste them with the "Rodney" sauce then put some BBQ sauce on them and put them directly on the grill no direct flame for 1hr at 300F/148C and they are pull the bone out tender and juicy.

[@cjcoleman7372]

If you are looking for something different and it works with beef and pork then try my marinade. 3 cups soy sauce, 3 cups pineapple juice and 4 cups Mirin. I use Mizkan Mirin. Mirin is a Chinese sweet cooking seasoning for sauces and glazes. I start to marinate my meat 12 hours to 48 hrs in advance. Just depends on the size and type of meat. Steaks I do a few hrs before or the day before. Boston butts ( pork shoulder whole roast) i have done days before to get the flavor really saturated in and then I even mix a new batch to bast with but make extra to use a injector to get it in deep. Once you try it you will understand why my wife and I love it so much.
