Title: Ribs for a retirement party.
Post by: sparky on September 04, 2018, 06:42:08 PM: My wife's boss was retiring after 40 years. So my wife ask if I could make some ribs and have them to her at work at 10:30 with only a days notice. Off to Costco. I woke up at 0430 with Marley to fire up the PBC.

Come on PBC wake up buddy.

I only use 1/2 my charcoal basket for all my cooks.

Flame on.

Everything seasoned up and hooked up.

One hour on the cool side 1st.

Then one hour on the fire side for a little more color and some crust.

Is it coffee break yet?. A nice strong bialetti Italian coffee.

Two hours into the cook and they look good.

Now they're going to get better.

Temp is perfect.

Took them out of the foil after 1 hour. Back on the PBC.

I took the foil drippings and added honey to it. Applied that mixture to the ribs and cooked until a toothpick wouldn't pick up the rib.

These came out super sticky with good color.

One of the director's of her group is a competition bbq judge and said it was an outstanding rib with good flavor and a good bite to them. Ya.

And the moral of the story is my PBC never lets me down.

Love ya buddy.
