BBQ pork Ribs on the big green egg

[TruckerWarren]

Awesome Job. Personally, I love them "Fall off the bone".

The dog is priceless.

[EasyRecipesHQ]

like your bbq videos

[HighCountryStaff]

You said to wrap then in foil, but it looks like you only wrapped one slab. When you opened the egg for the last time, none of them were wrapped in foil! What am I missing?!

[chbimmer2]

@HighCountryStaff  I am with you on that, I have watched this video a million times and there is a disconnect.

[206killaMike]

@chbimmer2 I believe u leave them in the foil for a hour or so and let them relax. then slap with sauce and re smoke

[1970browning]

I think you are doin ok your having fun piss on the bad comments they have forgot how to have fun or forgot where they come from

[PointBeer]

OK, who sings that song? It is pretty funny.

[tampa444444]

As someone said below, 'fall off the bone' ribs equals overcooked ribs every time. It amazes me how many people think fall off the bone ribs is a good thing, when actually its a bad thing. Take fall of the bone ribs to any respectable bbq competition and they won't even bother rating them, and will basically laugh you out of there..

[buckwheat6105]

@tampa444444 Actually, I won a competition in Tampa, FL using this method....so put that in your pipe and smoke it.

[tampa444444]

@buckwheat6105 Which one and when was it? No way any respectable competition even bothers rating 'fall off the bone ribs,' let alone makes them the winner. Fall off the bone ribs is the equivalent to cooking a steak to a black char. Unfortunately Americans aren't up to snuff on bbq as they are what constitutes a steak cooked appropriately.

[drbockel2]

@tampa444444

Not when it's cooked on a BGE. Low & slow, baby!

[drbockel2]

@tampa444444

Fall off the bone rocks on the BGE. Low & slow, FTW!

[12BarBob]

Hey Buck wheat

You turned me on to Rusty (I bought his video) and great ribs on the BGE because of this excellent one handed video. I used your recipe and my very first attempt turned out perfectly. I don't think I have cooked hot dogs on the BGE perfectly first time! Thanks again for taking the time to post this great vid.

Best regards,

[ned262626]

how much does a green egg cost

[buckwheat6105]

@ned262626 A large egg with a nest, side tables and cover will run in the neigborhood of around $1,100 after tax

[perfectbeat]

I like that song. Very funny. Come on man. You could have thrown your dog a rib at the end. :-) Nice video.

[timbr33]

@perfectbeat

cooked bones are bad for dogs, should only give them raw ones ;)

[jimmyintpa]

falling off the bone = overcooked.

[GoGatorsGoooo]

excuse me. Meat.......

[GoGatorsGoooo]

Again, You don't need tin foil to make ribs tender. low and slow. If your meet isn't the best quality then it may require a mop sauce to help. mtnluke is a moron.

[jetze28]

I'm not the only one who thinks that your ribs do not look so good.You don't have to burn me to the ground, like you do with your (uneatable) ribs.

[mtnluke]

nobody knows the song your are looking for and you know nothing about smoking meat so get lost jimlnds.

[buckwheat6105]

The artist of the song was a guy by the name of Rusty McHugh. He was a friend of mine that played at the Flora~Bama Lounge in Perdido Key, FL for years. He passed away a few years ago.

[jetze28]

I'm sorry, but looking at that colour of those ribs they seemed to black and burned. Is that like okay?

[mtnluke]

yes it is. and you know nothing about smoked meat so shut your computer off and don't come back. thanks.

[GoGatorsGoooo]

You did okay other than using tin foil. That is cheating. Besides good ribs should not fall off the bone.

[mtnluke]

as if you have something useful to say about smoking? Get lost. your comment is worthless.

[themikewallace]

Good job all around. Rusty McHugh, a large egg and an original recipe. Your ribs look heavenly and tender. You sir are a true american!

[Baileygeep7]

how did you get 2 cups of vinegar and 5 tbs of sugar and pepper to thicken like that?

[buckwheat6105]

the sauce isn't as thick as it looks

[cuzzinbri]

actually, in my opinion, pork ribs should fall off the bone. cool video. Wish I could spring for one of these. Have to win the lotto first. You should try some beef ribs and cook them for about 10 hours

see what happens

[martmegalo]

Ive got some Old Milwaukee,an ugly woman and a shitty bag of pot...its a damn good thing i have some good bbq

[makeminealarge1]

dam, this video has mad me feel REALLY hungry, i'm sure i could eat ALL of them bbq ribs, and dont turn your back becuase the dog is waiting to steal them lol

[JustAddBBQ]

Wow I can just taste and smell the meat. Yummy! So good. Thanks for sharing and I like that rack that you had it in too. 5 Stars!

[thesadsack]

Great video, man. Where did you get the rib rack thing for your grill - is it an EGG accessory?

[buckwheat6105]

i think i got it at Home Depot or Lowes for about $20 or so.

[tampa444444]

Looks good, but I had to laugh when you said "fall off the bone ribs." Anyone who knows anything about BBQ knows that ribs that fall off the bone have been way overcooked. Go to any bbq competition anywhere and they will immediately disqualify you for doing such a thing.

Ribs are never supposed to fall off the bone, but instead have a slight/decent pull to them. Yet, amateurs don't seem to know this, and restaurants like to promote this to an uneducated public.

[buckwheat6105]

I'll keep this in mind next time I have a BBQ competition in my backyard.  You're insightful comments are much appreciated...you must be a pretty popular guy with the ladies

[southmadejd]

This comment made me giggle until I realized that I also am not very popular with the ladies. :(

[salpi23]

awesome looking ribs!!! Who sings that song in the background??

[milliemchugh]

Might find it to download on CDBaby or ITunes under Rusty McHugh

[harry0826]

Im new to ribs. Why do you place in foil and for how long?

[buckwheat6105]

The foil will "steam" the ribs and make them very, very tender. I wrap in foil for about 2hours.

[johanntoday]

are those baby backs or spare ribs? what size egg?

i want to get an egg but i like to o 4-6 racks of spare ribs now and then and am concerned it won't fit, looks like you have racks there, but they look like baby backs

[buckwheat6105]

Those are baby back ribs. With the Large BGE, you can do 6 racks of baby backs, no problem at all. I've never done spare ribs on my grill so I'm not too sure how many racks you can do at a single time. I have Large BGE. They make XL Big Green Eggs but it's my understanding that they have hot spots and do not cook as well as the Large BGEs.

[johanntoday]

I had not heard about the hot spots on the xl. I was thinking about getting the xl, but now not so much. How about briskits and boston butts? I'm really concerted about only have 18.5" inches for other things, do you have space issues with it?

[buckwheat6105]

I've done a lot of briskets boston butts with no space issues @ all. For the money and value, you really can't beat a Large BGE

[swibirun]

I had to come find this vid again. Today I smoked some baby backs for dinner on my BGE and found myself humming this song as I was foiling.

Do you not use a plate setter?

[buckwheat6105]

I have not gotten around to buying one.....

[jfitznc]

Hey, what song is that? I wanna download it. By the way, nice ribs too!  haha

[buckwheat6105]

The artist's name is Rusty McHugh. You can buy his cd's off of his website: rustymchugh dot com.

Take care,

b

[buckwheat6105]

It's called the 3:2:1 method.

1) You smoke for 3 hours

2) You wrap in foil, then smoke for another 2 hours

3) You unwrap the foil, then smoke for 1 hour

After that you're done and you're pretty much guaranteed that they will fall off the bone.

[safetysquirrel]

Do you add anything when you wrap them? I heard some folks put in a little pineapple juice to get kind of a steaming affect

[buckwheat6105]

Yes - you can add any citric juice such as lemonn juice, lime juice, oj, etc. These types of juices help break down the meat even more to make it that much more tender. Whatever I have in the fridgerator is what I typically add...i'm not picky when it comes to this step.

Love ceramics, love ribs, love the music!
