Baby back ribs Cookoff

Recommended Posts

One of the cooks the other day inspired me to do some baby backs with chimichurri. I decided to compare it against one of my favorite pre-made rubs - slap yo daddy all purpose rub. My BIL made a fresh batch of chimichurri last night and we added to the ribs, wrapped them and put them in the fridge overnight. I got up this morning around 7 to fire up the grill.

Started the day at 32 degrees outside with a nice frost on the kk

By 9, the kk was humming along at 275 and I added the 4 racks; two with my rub and 2 with the chimichurri. Nice combination of smoke and steam coming out of the kk. the smoke pot had been going for about 20 minutes with chunks of applewood.

this pic (below) was after about an hour and a half. They got their first spritzing with a apple cider vinegar/apple juice combination.

We are about half way into the cook with the pic below.

At this point, I wanted to hit the chimichurri ribs with more sauce so I moved everything to the racks.

Just before pulling in the pic below. It took about 6.5 hours to get to this point where they passed the "bend" test.

This batch may have been my favorite. I really like the chimichurri on the BBR's.
