Happy New Year!
I purchased a Slow n Sear after Christmas and it was delivered on Wednesday. Which made me dig the kettle out of the snow, were it has been sitting for the last 2 years. Opened the lid and what a mess, it needed a good cleaning, after that it was off to the HD for parts. New grates upper and lower, cover, Kingsford, cherry chunks and tumbleweeds.
I also got the drip pan and grate, I covered the drip pan with aluminum foil. Makes for an easy clean-up.
First cook baby back ribs. I normally bake them for 3 hours in the oven at 250* then sear them on the gas grill to caramelize the sauce. Not this time; The plan Make a rub of brown and white sugar, salt, pepper, paprika, garlic and onion powder, and just a pinch or two of cayenne pepper.
The start, Kingsford and 3 cherry chunks.
Two hours in, I was having a hard time of keeping the heat at 250*. Mostly between 225-270 but I'm a little out of practice using the Weber and it was 25* outside.
At three hours, I wrapped them in foil for the last hour. Let them rest for 10 minutes.
Look at those smoke rings, didn't need to use any sauce.
Easy clean-up.
This thing is the BOMB, thanks to all you guys and girls for the idea.
