I received my Smoke Thermometer today along with a couple extra probes that I ordered and a free hand held Pocket IR from
Thermoworks.
Here it is out of the box. Thermoworks was having a great sale the other day on temperature probes so I picked up the extra
ones for about $13.00 each. I will be testing it out today with some St Louis cut ribs. I dry brined the ribs for about 5 hours with
some kosher salt then seasoned them with Memphis Dust.
After 2 hours the kettle is running between 228 and 235. I am burning KBB with 3 small chunks of hickory. I am also using the
Slow n Sear and the Drip n Griddle.
Ribs are looking good at the 2 hour mark. I will let them go another 30 to 45 minutes than will be wrapping them.
At the 2:45 mark I wrapped the ribs with a mixture of light brown sugar, honey and butter.
I let them ride in the foil for almost 2 hours. I removed them from the foil and gave them a light glaze of Longhorn BBQ sauce.
I also put a small pan of Bush’s Baked Beans on the grill to heat.
Ribs and beans are done!
My plate! I had to sample the end one. Awesome flavor and complete bite through on the rib.
I believe I am really going to like the Smoke Thermo. I still have 2 sets of Maverick ET-732‘s but they have a real bad habit of
losing the signal. I placed the Smoke where I normally do the ET-732 receiver and not once did it lose connection. Plus it is a
whole lot easier to set up then the ET-732.
