This guy right here is one of the good ones!

Phil, brother....great experimental video.....hell that is not just for college students, this is for folks cooking ribs in the park on a smokey joe.....real nice......Great video and funny as usual......outstanding!

Hey Dad, i grilled spare ribs on a small chargriller. I did it just like you did, they came out perfect-thank you so much!

That Smokey Joe was literally one of the best investments I've ever made at $34.99! It is still my go-to for the solo cooking or cooking for two. I will actually be hooking up some chicken wings on that bad boy tonight! Great channel, liked and subscribed... Keep up the great vids my NC brethren!

Good cook. The ladies smile says it all.

I am from India and has been in love with grilling since I can remember, using crude itty bitty grills (Mostly chicken). I visited the US as part of my work assignment in 2017 for two weeks and unlike most sane people, I bought a Smokey Joe and packed it in my check in baggage (Truth be told, I wasn't aware of there being Weber stores in India which sold the same models, albeit more than double the US rate accounting the currency exchange rate). It arrived in India sans the little packet of screws that was lost in transit and that is when I found the nearest Weber store, who graciously delivered the screws at no extra cost (Even though they had no obligation to do so). Again, unlike most people from my country I prefer pork and beef to white meat. From the day my smokey joe was installed, I have been looking for a practical video for doing exactly this. May be I did not use the right search key words, but this video remained elusive till this day - 08/04/2021 when I chanced on a similar video by babybackmaniac and I am having tears of joy. Daddy, you have not only have college going beneficiaries - your video is making difference half way across the globe.

Great video sir, appreciate you. Just did my own spin on this on a tiny grill. I'd say just about 20 minutes until they finish up right now....they're looking PERFECT!

Thanks a lot my brotha, I saw this video and followed the exact directions I put a brick in the middle of my Smokey Joe on the 4th of July and I made some fantastic ribs in about 4 hours. Thanks again!!

Thanks for the drinking … ah, I mean grilling lesson. Great video!

Such a great idea. I LOVE videos like this. So helpful to newbies and oldies alike. Good job, Phil.

Well done my friend. Nice to see someone grilling and having a good since of humor . Loved the video. Thanks

Just got a Weber Smoky Joe and clicked on your video. Love your shirt!!! Love the cooking ribs info too! Thank you!

Mr phil, sorry its been a while since ive been in contact with you and gave some very well deserved props and appreciation. Ive been back on the job again to a new location and just returned home a couple days ago after being gone for 3 months. Thanks for all the great recipes and instructional videos. I liked the idea of showing folks that you dont have to have a big expensive smoker to cook good spare ribs. I feel it potentially reaches more people than usual just because its for all the ones that for whatever reason only have a itty bity grill. And as always i try to make sure and recognize and thank all the retired, active and inactive, and the deployed members of all the branches of our great nation's armed forces. Each and every one of you make daily sacrifices that ensures so much more than just our protection from foreign enemies. You provide and maintain the very freedom and structure that unfortunately so many take for granted but yet have no idea just what it takes to even have the privilege of voicing their opinion, no matter how backwards the logic of it may be. You all made sacrifices from the day you signed your name on the doted line in the recruiters office. Each of you bravely but gladly sacrificed the life you had known untill then as a civilian to carry on the greatest honor i feel an individual can ever really have. And for those that made the ultimate sacrifice of not making it back, your commitment and tried and true dedication to our great country will never be forgotten. Again, a very special thank you to all the men and women of the armed forces. May we never forget that freedom doesn't come free. It comes from each and every one of your efforts.

Love that beer mug !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I brought that same grill last year. I was able to prepare chicken,hotdogs,burgers and ribs on it! Of course I partially cooked my chicken & ribs before I put them on the grill. I love my little grill,as they say, "great things come in little packages". I hope you had a awesome vacation!

Love the shirt!

Phil this was a great experiment... I could definitely do this on the lake fishing. I'm glad your KZfaq subscriber ask this question. in the ribs look perfectly cooked and delicious. TFS

BabyBack Maniac sent me here and I'm glad he did. Thank you for this video. Just bought my first Weber, a Smokey Joe. Good job on the ribs. Good production and great editing on the video.

Bloody hell! Once the weather improves I’ll be doing this! Thanks. Greetings from London…

Awesome video, and as someone who is an adult about to go back to college this video was a god sent.

Great video bud! Just made a video with the smokey Joe. Trying to video out what else I can do with it that's interesting! Thanks man!

Looks good. I have a slightly larger weber kettle like that and love it, we use ours a lot. Have to be a little creative sometimes like with the simple brick but its a great simple versatile grill and super affordable. And yes, "Lowed and Slowed" is in my vocabulary!

Cool experiment.

Thank you for the video ! I just bought my first BBQ grill a Smokin Joe because I only have a balcony. So this is my first time actually grillin' for myself. I will start with chicken breast with mesquite wood.

Awesome video! Super informative and easy to follow. My ribs turned out great! Never thought I could make ribs that good on a 14” Weber!

Love the cook and the shirt....

I have the same grill and it cooks amazing, I've cooked ribs and hotdogs and hamburgers with NO problem.!!! The size is perfect to take to the beach or the parks or anywhere , enjoy your day cooking.!!!!

Great video! I love the technique, it could be useful for a lot of people.

I live in an apartment and use the little Webber grill often. Going to have to give this a try. Love the shirt by the way.

Thank you so much for this video! I needed this! Love the music by the way, I like it funky

I just told someone in my communitygarden today about using the brick.They have a Aussie grill.This is the second time I caught someone throwing out a Weber.First time they threw out a 22inch weberkettlegrill.I jumped in our huge dumpster and saved it.The second time I stopped them from dumping a Smokey Joe.It is a GREAT little grill.I going to use a thinner brick.Iam will cook the trimmings from the ribs on the Smokey Joe.GREAT videos.

Had to get rid of my offset sadly and now this is all I have room for. I thought my smoking days were over! Thanks for the great video, Subbed my man.

Ima gonna try ribs on a Itty bitty grill this week can't wait!

AWESOME VID! I just purchased a Weber "Itty Bitty" and I also wanted to know if this could be done! THANKS for sharing..IT'S ON!!!!

Thank you sir!! Love the video and I love my smokey Joe as well!

Great photography, great music, and I need that shirt! Good job Phillip

I made an itty bitty smoker from a itty bitty grill. For small cooks it is a killer smoker. I used and must be IMUSA USA MEXICANA-34 Aluminum Tamale and Steamer Steamer Pot 32-Quart, Silver 13.5 dia. for the smoke chamber, added an extra grill grate some nuts and bolts. Ideal from Smoke Meat with Jef. Enjoyed yours and Babe back manic take on small grills. Keep it up.

Nice beer glass! You drink beer like I do! The ribs look awesome too!!!

smokey joe is a great little grill. the biggest mistake i see other people make with this grill is loading it up with too much charcoal, and then they burn everything they try to cook.. i rarely use more than 10 briquets when i'm cooking, the shape of the grill concentrates and focuses the heat so well. i really wish weber made charcoal baskets for this grill like they do for their larger ones, that would be really nice.

Them ribs looks perfect my friend...thanks for the great video and much respect for your beautiful daughter. Cheers!

Thanks for the video. I have the Smokey Joe also and the thing I didn't like was that the grate doesn't have the flip up ends to add more charcoal. Today I found a 14 inch grate for the Smokey Joe by Grillvanausa on Amazon. You may have already discovered it, but thought I'd mention it. Thanks again!

Nice job. These videos help me get through deployments. My friends and I be discussing your videos almost as if it was a football game. Keep up the awesomeness.

Outstanding video, brother! Great concept and awesome execution. Job well done. This video was super interesting. Kudos!

I loved this

Great job helping someone out

Great idea, gonna use it in my full size grill

I love the jazz music in the back ground

I cook on my Smokie Joe all the time. Yes Baby Back ribs are the best. Glad to you back on the Tube.

Fantastic Job, Brother! I very much enjoy yer cookin videos, an yer sense of humour; we'd git along just great, believe ya me :-) I loves me some Smokey Joes! (I gots 4 of em), they can rock some great food!

Finally home from the hospital TODAY after the major car accident I PM'd you about. I am (relatively) ok. All my x-rays came back negative for fractures or major damage to my spine, neck, and arm, but I do have a partially torn Levator Scapulae (in neck, supports the head), and other injured muscles in my arm,hand, and leg. May need surgery if my recovery period does not go as smoothly as the doctor plans, but I am expected to make a full recovery at this point. Anyway... I appreciate the video, the shout out, and just the general awesomeness! When I get better and can move about more freely, and do not feel like a reanimated corpse, I will definitely try to get this done and let you know How it turns out (hopefully make a video and put it in my mini-cooking series for my channel) Stay safe, and watch out for other bad drivers blowing through stop signs at intersections...... - Orvis25 Edit: Here is a quick video on my accident: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/f6imgpd329zVYqs.html

Nice Phil!!!

You have WAY too much fun!

Way to rock that mini grill, your ribs turned out great. Digging the No Hippie stye too.

Awesome video man.. thanks

I own one of these, thanks for a great video!

Thank you for this video. Just bought me a itty bitty grill.. gonna try this out.. 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

Very cool! That was always a struggle for me as well while at college. Always wanting some good grilled food, but couldn't have a full size grill. Keep up the good work, man!

Hey phil nothing like waking up to a good bbq video hope you had a fantastic time on your vacation.

Love it....

Great experiment Phil and it looked like those ribs turned out perfect!!! Great seeing a new video from you brother!!! I like that shot of the camera crossing beside the grill as it was cooking and smoking. Nice camera work!!!

Best video by far I can't wait to cook ribs on my itty-bitty grill

Great video, awesome shirt

👍🏾. I use the 14” grill I added a tamale pot now I can smoke with the best of them. There’s plenty of KZfaq videos on how to do this. Thx for the video and keep on grilling

love the videos, AATW!

Love that tshirt. I need 7. One for every day of the week.

Nice job on that Phil! Most of my first cooking videos were on my Weber Jumbo Joe so I know you can cook some good food on a small grill.

Phil, I swear I believe you could make good BBQ if you just had a coffee can, some chicken wire and a few twigs and sticks. You;re the Boss!

Those look sooooooooo delicious!! Great job DC. ^_^

looks delicious

this video has some soul to it!!!!!!!

Had to subscribe also. GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY BROTHA!!!

Baby back maniac put me on to your channel for the small weber and I'm impressed. Gonna try to copy your method tomorrow

Good video!

Man, You make it Fun😎

fantastic

I am going to share this video with my son, awesome😀

great video thanks for sharing !

Great Video. Only wish I had a grill to do some Q on Sunday when I was in college. Our college cafeteria was horrible!!!. We referred to the menu as the "Slop Chart". Any college kid out there should be subscribing to your channel in droves after watching this video.

First and foremost let me say.....Welcome back home and thank you for your service my friend! Those ribs on that "itty bitty grill" looked insanely delicious. I knew when beautiful Jessica (Kim's mini me LOL) took that 2nd bite it was good. Miss "O" aka the camera woman did a great job on this video. I am so jealous that you have a cousin that gives you such awesome background music.....Groove Frequencies please adopt me as your long distance cousin and send me some of that amazing music LOL. Great video Phil (and girls) super excited to see you ALL again. Be Blessed and Keep on Cooking TOGETHER......

*Great video bro. I appreciate you sharing.*

Daddy can cook on itty bitty grill and have big drink! :) Those look so awesome Phil!

Awesome luv it tfs😀

Just bought the 18 inch and searching ideas for it. It can be done. Thanks.

that looks goooooood, I'd tear that up! lol

Great job playa!

that was a good experiment. I was surprised you got a whole rack of spare ribs on that grill

Super!👍

Had to subscribe when I saw you drinking a beer!

For some reason I never thought about using a brick on this grill. I have the Smokey Joe Gold and I modified it and added the bottom vents and I LOVE it. Use it mostly during the week and I am thinking of getting the Jumbo Smokey Joe too. But, do I really need 3 grills? haha Also, I use a product called GrillGrates when I cook on this small grill It allows me to use the entire cooking surface and not burn anything and it's kind of a nice medium of direct/indirect cooking. Love em.

I wanna see you cook a brisket on a small grill man!! I love all ur videos

you should've stopped by the crib and had beer and some grilled steaks while you were in my hometown Chicago. and as always excellent video playa

Baby Back Maniac sent me :) -- great results and T-shirt there guy.

That's awesome and a lot of love went into those ribs. I found you bc I watched @babybackmaniac do his version. I love my Smokey Joe, but I think I'll stick to my chicken.

Great vids. I'm getting back into BBQ low and slow and am very much enjoying you vids

I really enjoy your videos. Very entertaining and informational. I really like how you include your family in the whole thing. On that note I think the shirt is awesome. Where did you get it I need to pick me up one???? Keep up the great work.

Would love to see more video's of you using that itty bitty grill

Thanks for the video boss, I wish i could taste your delicious food

Fabulous job mon ami

Does searing the ribs lock in the moisture and help get tender??
