Ready or Not Here They Come Ribs | Cookshack

Tonight I thought I would cook some ribs where I just did "set it and forget it" with my little Smokette.

I put some ~3.5# Hormel fresh St. Louis ribs in my Smokette (225 degrees) at 2:40 PM with 3 oz of hickory and 2 oz apple wood after slathering them with French's mustard and JJ's rub. My plan is to let them sit in the CS until 7:15 PM and take them out and eat them after they sit for 15 minutes or so. This is the first time I am doing ribs without a peek at 3.5 hours or so.

It is now 6:20 PM and they smell so good I am tempted to take them out sooner.

If my camera works, I will take a picture and post it here for you to enjoy (or comment upon). Bear with me!

Well- here is a picture of the ribs that cooked for 4.5 hours without a peek. and guess what, they were excellent.

If there is a point to what I am trying to say, it is that you can be as simple or as complex as you want in a CS cook- it will probably come out great anyhow!

Hey,Bobby Qque .

Looks like your experience and the CS leeway factor is working for you.

Like you said,If we don't complicate things the CS does a fine job.
