Redneck Engineering - Smoking An Oversize Rack Of Ribs!

[@TheWolfePit]

You are pure Genius John! First just by using the WRO made you a smart man!! LOL I love the way you improvised with the stacking! The Brussel sprouts looked just the way I like them, still firm and not mushy! Then I could have made a meal of the salad by itself! Fantastic job John!

[@TheWolfePit]

Anonymoose's Corner My daughter brings a shaker bottle of Wolfe Rub Citrus to the table for almost everything. We had steak, sweet potatoes and brussel sprouts the other night and the steak got Wolfe Rub Original after the cook for her and she layered on the Wolfe Rub Citrus on the sweet tater and sprouts. She won't eat a sweet tater without it!! LOL

[@AussieAngeS]

Ooh that looks so good! Thumbs up on this for sure

[@Anonymoose]

FitAnge S Thanks, Angie! It worked *very* well. The ribs were great!

[@THEREDNECKPEPI64]

great recipe bro

[@OurTwinLife]

Oh now you are talking !! Ribs are my weakness. lol

[@Anonymoose]

Our Twin Life And these were reeeeeeeally good, too! LOL! Hopefully the weather is finally breaking a little up there, so maybe you can roll the grill up close to the front door and get it fired up again.

[@OurTwinLife]

Gonna have to do it soon, my oven is officially shot. Won't turn on. I'll be grilling until I can get a new one. :(

HUGE rack of ribs! They looked great when you cut them! I wish I could say "I'm coming over for a rib or two"! I bet you enjoyed every bite. Look at that beautiful cat of yours! - roc

[@dudeanwalker]

perfectly smoked ribs!

[@Anonymoose]

Dudean Walker Thanks! They did come out right on the nose, so the experiment was a smash success.

[@MattHawes]

Yum!!! Ribs! Yayy!!!

[@Anonymoose]

MattHawes Thankee thir! They were yummy! Yayy!!! LOL

[@PatFarrellKTM]

Not too cheap, too frugal and creative

[@Anonymoose]

Pat Farrell Haha! Frugal and creative sounds much more polite than cheap. Either way, it's right in line with the "nearly free" philosophy.

[@imperceptibleme]

Whoa Moosie. That Hog must have weighed 500 lbs! That's the biggest rack of ribs I've ever seen. Well I knew you'd have no problems cooking that massive rack because you are a Grill Master extraordinaire!! As always I love to watch you cook and your presentation is always wonderful. Hugs!

[@007bondjb]

Damn I'm coming eat at your house, Is the beer free too? Lol

[@Anonymoose]

***** Yep, my policy has always been "Free beer tomorrow!" LOL Those ribs didn't last long. I managed to squeeze two meals out of 'em. YUM!

[@foodquig]

Cindy says you can make ribs for her any time...

[@Anonymoose]

foodquig Sooner or later, we're gonna have to move closer together. The commute is gonna kill us.

[@foodquig]

Anonymoose's Corner I concur.

[@JesseAndMike]

Looks delicious!! But you forgot to send us an invite again! We're starting to think it's on purpose! :P Liked!

[@Anonymoose]

***** Well... Your Mom did warn me against inviting you. She said you'd probably get blood all over my carpet, like you do to hers, or else you saw up the furniture. Sooooo... I kinda hesitated... :-)

[@saintrude]

I was going to say I wish I lived closer so I could raid your refrigerator for leftovers, but I'm not too sure you have leftovers.

[@Anonymoose]

Saint Rude Haha! And you're right. Leftovers don't live long around here. I did manage to squeeze two meals out of these, but it would've taken a midnight raid to get your claws on them.

[@hurdman7899]

Wait!!! I'll be right over. Crap, I live in NorCal.

[@Anonymoose]

hurdman Run really fast! LOL

[@mobiltec]

MMMmmmmmmm..... Guess I need to buy a Bar B Que also. I only have my little camp one and it's actually purdy worthless.

[@theskinnychef7865]

Looks delicious, as always. Great idea with stacking the ribs like that. I would never have thought 2x4s were a safe wood to cook with. Are they not treated? This was a low heat cook, but I'd still have been paranoid. Not that I know much about lumber. I could be completely wrong for all I know :D

[@Anonymoose]

The Skinny Chef Thanks! I don't know why I never thought of it before. The 2x4s were just plain untreated pine, no chemicals. I wouldn't think of using pressure treated; there are some pretty ugly chemicals in it. Now that I've proven that it works, a next step will be to engineer something a bit prettier, without scrap 2x4s. LOL
