Does the temp of the grill still have to reach a temp of 270 if u want to make 2 racks of ribs and to fit the ribs can I put charcoal on one side will it still cook the same

@joeseibert5585 2 жыл бұрын

They make rib racks. The ribs are vertical so you can fit more racks of ribs.

Throughout my trial and errors of smoking on Weber Kettles, I have learned to use those charcoal baskets on both sides instead of using a single basket to one side. I also use a drip full of water in between my charcoal baskets. It seems to make a world of difference in my cooking. My meats cook/smoke more evenly. Nice video.

Very well done video sir, in a manner of speaking :). Thank you so much for the tip on observing the appearance of the smoke coming out and how to tell when your setup is ready to add meat. As someone who recently purchased a Weber kettle (and has been watching some how-to's on YT), this is the first time I have seen anyone point out in detail on why you shouldn't add your meat too soon. I have been making that mistake on my first few cooks and look forward to trying again soon. Great work, worth a sub for me!

My first time ever cooking ribs so I followed your video to the letter except for the glaze at the end. I made the rub exactly to the recipe and cooked them on the (brand new) Weber with the baskets at ~250 for 4.5 hours, and I used a rib rack to make three racks of baby backs. When finished I brushed them with a couple of different store bought sauces and left one rack un-sauced. I thought that would be too much meat for our small crowd. Not so. They were coming back asking if any were left! Absolutely perfect and the best ribs any of us have ever had!! Fantastic flavor, moist and tender, and even the un-sauced one got gobbled up. Nothing left but the bones, LOL! Thanks for the great recipe and instruction!! Subscribed.

Hello again! Just wanted to follow-up on my comment from last year. I've been using this recipe ever since and it never fails, my ribs always come out great! Someone commented below that using two smaller baskets gives a more even cook, and I have to agree. I bought a Slow-n-Sear and tried it couple of times, but I've found that the smoke coverage is better with two baskets, and I have more even temps across the grate. The Slow-n-Sear works great for reverse searing steaks and pork chops because it allows more grate surface area, and then you have the direct heat for searing. But for low-and-slow I think two baskets is the way to go. Of course, this is my experience and others may have different results. Keep up the great work!

@BarlowBBQ Жыл бұрын

Hey Tad, love hearing from you again! It makes my day to hear how successful you've been. 👍👍 I like your point about using two baskets, it makes sense to me.

Will wrapping it in foil and cooking it after smoking help make the meat tender?

Yes, as long as you did not dry up the meat in the smoking process, you can always make the ribs tender by wrapping in foil with some moisture added by either BBQ sauce or even apple cider vinegar.

Heat control was the hardest part on the trusty old Weber without a grill thermometer but as long as they weren't sizzling I figured the heat wasn't too high. I couldn't believe how little charcoal was needed when cooking that slow. Your glaze was also the perfect finisher. Thanks for giving me the confidence!

Nice, simple vid. Have to say the charcoal baskets are REQUIRED IMHO. There are a half dozen things I do SLIGHTLY differently, but who cares? This is a GREAT start. ANYONE can do this and with full racks going for $20 plus in BBQ joints, you need to try this. I will say that as SOON as they come off you need to foil wrap a rack. You want to lock in that moisture, let the bones continue to cook the meat, and most of all, give yourself time to get the sides ready to roll.

It took me a while to realize it, but I'm so in agreement with you on smoking ribs at hotter temps. I just did a couple of racks of Baby Backs, and they came out nice and tender smoking around 300. I've never tried that set up for ribs, but only because I'm never doing less than 2 racks. Great content as usual brother.

I find it very interesting.. I've done ribs many times, good and bad results but I gotta say, I've never been able to have them ready in a 3 hour period at temps between 275 and 300... not even close to ready to be honest so it really calls my attention you got it. I like tenderness to the point where there is bone pull back like yours but also to the point where the meat falls of the bone, just something I personally like. I usually do the 3-2-1 rule (last hour being only 15 min actually) The ribs looked really nice though!

I think my grill was running hotter than I thought...we're at sea level here so it doesn't take much to get temps up.

I've been smoking ribs for about 2 years now and actually never tried this method until I saw your video. I actually had to go digging for those charcoal baskets because I had never used them. Let me tell you the result was amazing. I use many methods but this one was truly easy and quite efficient! One question I do have is what if I am doing 2 racks using this method? Would I have to simply just have to go with using one basket in order for the other rack to not get burned and receive the appropriate smoke? Thank you for any feedback and your videos are awesome man!

@BarlowBBQ 2 жыл бұрын

Thanks so much for your kind comments, and I'm thrilled you learned a new technique! To answer your question, you have a couple options: 1) get yourself a rib rack - a rack will fit right between your two baskets or 2) get a Slow N Sear - it's essentially one large charcoal basket and it fits the kettle perfectly. You will still need a rib rack if you're planning on doing more than one rack of ribs. So I guess you're answer is, buy a rib rack! 😉 They are inexpensive so won't break the bank. Hope this helps! 🔥🔥

@BarlowBBQ 2 жыл бұрын

Here's a link to a rib rack similar to the one I use. It can hold up to 4 racks of ribs. Should be the right size to fit between your two baskets. Might be a little overlap, but just put the two ribs in the center of the rack and you'll be fine.

Thank you for your contributions. I tried the rub recipe and am wondering if the black pepper proportion is correct. It seemed way too peppery to me.

@BarlowBBQ 2 жыл бұрын

We like a lot of black pepper! 😉 Just adjust the amount to your liking!

I normally use my recteq and smoke at 225 but these ribs looked pretty good and tender for smokeing at close to 300 degrees. I personally wouldn't use charcoal briquettes but rather lump charcoal. I might have to try smoking on my Weber Performer

Yeah give those higher temps a try on your Weber! 👍👍

Best bbq channel. We appreciate your work. Not over the top and annoying for the sake of getting attention. Quick question: do you ever worry about closing your top vents too much to cause bad smoke? Ive always run my top vent wide open to allow for exhaust as many others do as well. But Im not sure if I need to worry about that. Thnx

@BarlowBBQ Жыл бұрын

Honestly I usually don't worry about the top vent too much. I tend to leave it mostly open but if temps are getting hot I'll close it down a bit. You do want to be sure to leave it open at the beginning when you start the fire. But once the charcoal gets going, you can close it down a bit if needed. Appreciate you stopping by, thanks for your kind comments! 🔥

@@BarlowBBQ thank you. Def agree to clear that bad smoke first. Would you agree though its better to start working the bottom vent first then the top? Or it doesnt matter in your opinion?

@BarlowBBQ Жыл бұрын

@@ratking948 I'll leave the bottom vent open while the fire gets going then close it down most of the way once I start getting close to the grill temp I want

Any thoughts about doing this the day before and how to keep them overnight and warm up again the next day? I’m planning a bbq where I will need to do some items in advance because grill space is limited. Want to try this method for my ribs. Thanks in advance

i love it nice and slow im single love ribs fireworks cooking in general heres a question i like fall off the bone ribs but im always aware that food poisioning may happen is 275 a good temp to prevent that hope all had a great fourth of july let frreedom ring

@blakestone75 4 жыл бұрын

Get yourself a decent meat thermometer and check out this chart from the FDA. www.fda.gov/media/93628/download To get tasty fall off the bone ribs, you’ll need to get internal temps way beyond the minimum for safe eating. Just stick to what Barlow did in the video, should go swell.

for the glaze what kind of mustard should I use and also do you have light or dark brown sugar.

What are your thoughts on marinating the ribs the day before? I see some KZfaqrs that do and some that don't. I am going to attempt my first rack on my new kettle but not sure if I should or not.

@BarlowBBQ 3 жыл бұрын

That's a great question! I have never tried brining my ribs, but I'm open to the idea. Since it's your first time, I would suggest skipping a brine, but be sure to use a rub before putting them on the grill. However, there is no right or wrong, so far what you want! 😉 Enjoy! 🔥🔥
