Man I tried to do my own dry rub on some ribs...absolute disaster and a real shame. Tasted like eating the contents of a vacuum bag. And I can grill to the nuts. Ribs are a different animal though. You need to finesse the Hell out of them. I love dry ribs but can't get it right to save my life.

It's all about the BBQ pit. And the secret's in the sauce.

Well don't get me wrong. I choked them down begrudgingly solely on principle. I've done well with wet ribs but a dry rub...that's master level.

Iced coffee on my keyboard. Thanks @ton312

You have to follow thru. My wife is essentially vegan and I made these, thank God, only for myself. But I could see in her eyes a subtle smirk, an "I told you so" of sorts. Couldn't let that stand. I fell on my sword, insisting they were both delicious and incredibly moist.

My experience of bbq in North Carolina resulted in us repeatedly attempting to make pulled pork. We'd get somewhere in the ballpark but never quite right. Our evening in the Woodlands Restaurant set the bar very high, almost as high as our cholesterol levels by the end of the evening, but every so often we have another go.

Some smoked pulled pork is about the finest food you can eat! Man that's the kind of thing I like to slow cook on long, cold and rainy days in November. Throwing back some cold ones and watching the Bears lose. Again.

I don't want to derail the thread
But has anyone got any BBQ recipes they'd like to share? I want to try something new!

I'm in Atlanta at the moment, and I'm told Fox Brothers is good. They even have Frito pie .
Planning on dinner tomorrow. Fatt Matt's is a close second, I hear.

What kind of mistakes are you referring to specifically? Guys with man buns and joggers? That's what I think of when I think of the same thing you're talking about.

Those who can't tell the difference between a suit and a sports jacket and slacks have even less right to throw stones.

You know what man, at first I was appalled by your douchey attitude and posts, but then you post the photo of you with the hilarious ensemble of the pink shirt + douchebag pompadour/sunglasses + effeminate light tan ladies boots with the too big sports jacket and trousers and I realized you're just taking the piss. Excellent satire, well done

What is your problem? Looks like someone wants to get reported to the mods.

Let's take a look at this: You think having a pompadour and sunglasses makes me douchey along with a pink shirt and light tan shoes?

Right..... That makes perfect sense.

Obviously you being rude for no apparent reason and bringing back posts from several pages ago just to criticize me in order to make yourself seem smart, cool, or manly definitely isn't douchey at all.

I would like you to look up a word in the dictionary.




The word is irony. I-R-O-N-Y.

So, no BBQ recipes then...?

I wish I had a good one for Carolina Pork!

Does anyone recall the movie "Fried Green Tomatoes" and the statement "the secret's in the sauce" when a really nasty, bad guy was the recipe?

From one of Bama's finest, Fannie Flagg.

I'm a big fan of the Amazing Ribs method : http://amazingribs.com/recipes/porknography/perfect_pulled_pork.html . They also have recipes for whichever sauce you like (in North Carolina there's a big divide over Eastern/Vinegar and Western/Tomato) but honestly it's so good I usually end up eating it 'plain'. It's a pretty foolproof recipe, too: just keep your grill/smoker/whatever reasonably close to 225* F for as long as it takes.

What are you looking for?

 

[handymike]

Eastern/ vinegar sauce please!

 

[Bamaboots]

Dry rub with sauce on the side if you just have to have it.

 

[handymike]

There's a New York guy in San Francisco who makes Brisket. He refuses to put on sauce, and honestly his meat doesn't need it. But he does offer some on the opposite counter.

My brother in law just made some amazing dry rub ribs last weekend. Very unusual spices. Indian influenced for sure. The were perfect. He even paired the meal with an incredible cocktail that had rum, cumin and brown sugar. The whole thing was delicious.
I felt like a chump. Last time he and his wife came over I destroyed our meal. Soggy green beans, burnt ass chicken. I just drank too much that day to prepare anything but a phone call for pizza... this thread has me fired up to ruin another rack.

As I recall The Rendevous in Memphis has a mail order service for their BBQ, although it would be prohibitively expensive to have it sent to the Big Man in Japan.
