Title: 3 slabs of Pork ribs vs 1 Old Smokey
Post by: smokeasaurus on May 18, 2014, 06:26:11 PM: So, Wendy says no big 500 lb smoker for me until we reach Alabama.....so I am "stuck" with the Old Smokey. Of course she brings home 3 big slabs of pork ribs and says cook em all on the Old Smokey. No problem, We tried out 3 different no salt rubs "as you know, Wendy is a nurse and is on Old Smokes case" from Marshall Creek spices. I used some skewers and rolled up the ribs and we will see what happens later........................

Those are the biggest "onion rings" I've ever seen. Ingenious use of space on the grill.
