What a jerk!

7lb pork butt in a 4 day jerk marinade (using 7 scotch bonnets)



Into the smoker it goes using pimento wood chips (and some generic maple pellets too) on the AMPS.

I have bad news, those lengthwise incisions you cut into the back of the ribs are actually on the front of the ribs.

The cuts are meant to break the silverskin that is found over the bones on the back, which can curl up when cooking. If you removed the silverskin then the cuts are not necessary, but since you didn't mention that anywhere I assume it's still there.

hth: https://www.finecooking.com/article/how-to-remove-silverskin-from-ribs

Is the silverskin the same thing as the membrane? Because I had the butcher remove the membrane at the store.

Like I said earlier, I had my dad make those incisions while I was setting up the grill and he didn’t do it the way I told him to. I’ll be honest though, part of the reason I asked him to do that was because... the wording of that step in the recipe confused me. The exact text from the recipe said...

quote:

2. With the racks of ribs meat side down, use the tip of a sharp paring knife to make shallow lengthwise incisions on either side of the rib bones (close to the bones). This step makes it easier to remove the bones once the bones are cooked.
... but I didn’t understand what it meant by “lengthwise” (lengthwise parallel to the BONES? Lengthwise parallel to the RACK?) so I let my dad do it. I almost made a post in this thread asking for clarification, but I decided not to cuz I knew y’all would ridicule me for my lovely reading comprehension like you ridicule me for everything else.

I’m really mad at myself about how loving bad I burned those ribs. I would’ve removed them from the grill a lot sooner, but I was hoping leaving them on longer would help loosen up the bones. Now I know better.

For the record, my last time making ribs before this was two years ago when I did St. Louis ribs on my MES, and those came out great. My only problem there was I had to skip the grill step because the bones fell out when I took the ribs out of the foil (and because the MES only goes up to 275° anyway).

Trastion posted:

I have never once sliced the bone side or the top of my ribs... Granted I do remove the silver skin if it is not already removed by the butcher.

All I can say it that you did your veggie skewers right but making each skewer all the same veggie so they can cook evenly. I hate seeing pics of people who mix veggies and meat on a single skewer (i did it when i was dumb) because things don't cook at the same speed. Though I would left them on a minute longer to get that good char.

For the onions I would have just done some big thick onion slices. A little EVOO and throw on the grill to char. Works out better than the skewer way.

My dad was the one who prepared the veggie skewers. I would’ve left them on longer, but I needed the space to spray flare-ups. I also wanted to get them off before I added the sauce.

That olive oil idea is a good one. I’ll have to do that next time.

Okay now I’m having another problem. I’ve got the Egg burning with the ConvEGGtor and the DigiQ and everything set up, and I set the DigiQ to put it at 300°F, but it’s been about half an hour and the temperature is a little over 400°F. How do I get the temp to go down? I’m adjusting the top vent every few minutes but it doesn’t look to be doing much. I think the top vent is 2/3rds of the way closed now.

I had to set the DigiQ to 390° just to get it to stop beeping. If it’s lower in an hour I’ll set it again.

Dude has an egg and every shortcut accessory and is either the world's most dedicated troll or the world's most incompetent cook.

Pork butt has been on since 2 AM. Two questions.

1. When does it stop absorbing smoke? i.e. When can I stop adding wood?
2. The temperature probe is reading 157° after only 5 1/2 hours, which seems high (the pit temp has only been 225° from the start). Do I need to move it?

In terms of smoke, what difference should I expect between 6oz at start and 3oz/3oz an hour apart? Say 225F, ribs or pork butt.

Yes, stop adding wood, stop doing anything. Just leave it.

You have an Egg with like every accessory available, yet you can’t figure out how to smoke one of the most forgiving cuts ever?

This is weird to me too. I have an Egg and some gadgets, and pork butt is basically up there with microwaving a frozen dinner. Ribs are 20% harder because you have to learn how to tell if they’re done, but there are so many ways even if just “run out the 3-2-1 clock”.

I think you’re over thinking it, gitmo. Let the probe sit until it registers the final temp (enjoy the plateau), then check with instant read to find any cooler spot to move the probe to. Let that sit unmolested until it hits temp, and repeat until the whole thing is at temp. Between putting it on and first measurement at target temp you should be doing nothing but occasionally checking the pit temp to reassure yourself that the gadgets are doing their jobs.

When you guys are looking for pork belly, are you trying for a decent amount of meat compared to fat, or...? I think I have been trying for too much meat in the belly, leading to somewhat tough results. (as bacon)

Hey, thanks. I finally managed to read this. I've been wanting to make ribs, which my wife doesn't like, so I think I might use it on some ribs.

How necessary is the pestle? I don't have one, and my coffee grinder is a bitch to clean, so I won't use that either.

For what it's worth I do have a food processor

Pork butt is at 190° according to my probe. It’s an 8 lb butt and it’s been on for 14 hours. What temperature does the stall on a pork butt normally happen at?

From earlier in the thread, but around 160-170 depending on how warm you're cooking and the humidity of the environment (outside and in your smoker). Note the green curves flatten for like 6-7 hours then start to rise again as heat transfer dominates the evaporative cooling effect (i.e. the bark has dried out):

Pulled it at 195°, after 15.5 hours at 225°.

Before-shot at 2 AM.


When I pulled it around 5:30 PM.


Pulled/shredded, after it was loosely wrapped in foil for 20 minutes. We didn’t pull it very much because we were hungry, and also :effort:.


The rub is a store-bought rub from a local barbecue place.

It’s super moist and super good, although I’m a little sad at what looks to me like a lack of smoke ring compared to some of the pics I’ve seen in this thread. The folks love it and want me to make it again.

P.S. NO I DID NOT MARINATE OR INJECT IT.
