Ok, not my first rib cook, but close to it. I was planning on trimming and removing the membrane today, then rubbing with my new Wolf Rub (which I understand may have been invented by the capt to go with his 2-2-1 method), then wrap them in plastic wrap overnight, then the 3-2-1 thing tommarrow. I would guess bbq sauce on the side ?

Question, comments, concerns ?
 
John

I add the bbq suace for the last 45 to 60 minutes on the WSM to get a glaze thing going.

I know what you mean, we're really lucky to have the Cap'n, inventer of ABTs, Wolfe Rub, and the 2-2-1 method, as a moderator. I also heard Minnion stole the method from the Cap'n.

mmmm..I love the way the boiling draws all the juice out of the ribs..makes an awesome base for soup...Cappy rocks !!
 
John if you rub with Wolfe Rub the night before, put a little extra on right when you put them on the cooker. SBR's is a good combo on ribs with WR.

Well, do I want to rub the night before or just when I put them on ?

I'd suggest a liberal dusting as the cooker is warming up. Either way will work though.
 
I wish I could, my oldest daughter went on vacation and took my camera. Ill take some with my phone, but have no idea how to get them from there to here...Another learning experiance..lol
 
I would save the effort of rubbing the night before. I rub everything within 10 minutes of putting it on the pit. Also, I don't remove membranes for non-competiton ribs. A waste of time in my opinion.
 
Pulling the membrane is mandatory cooking direct. Off set meat Jell-O boys don't need to. ( It's a joke It's a joke! ) Oh hell, off to the blue room for me. :grin:

much better end result and i can slice the ribs into 1-2 bone portions
