TheGreenChileMonster Fires Up The Weber Smokey Mountain

I'm doing some beef dino ribs today. I like to cook them as a mix of BBQ styles. Low and slow with lots of smoke, American BBQ style. I only use coarse salt as a direct seasoning on the ribs, but I make a salmuera to baste them with, Argentine style. I'll be using my WSM. I got my WSM about 2 months ago, and I've smoked a whole lamb, briskets, chickens, salmon, beef dinos, pork ribs, and pork butts. I've become very familiar with maintaining specific temps on the smoker. This will be 250 degrees all the way til it's done.

Rib blocks untrimmed


Rib blocks trimmed of the silverskin, and excess fat.


Ribs hit the Weber at 12:45. I'm using oak, hickory, and a bit of mesquite.

loving that.. are you going to hit that chicken with some   salmuera  as it is cooking?  I have a bunch of chicken thighs I am about to drop on the grill and I am going to be test driving some Salmuera  on them as I have tons of fresh oregano and golden thyme at the moment. :) 
 
Oh, definiely! Glad you're giving the salmuera a shot. It's a damn good way to season amd keep moist meats.
 
Resting breast side down. Dinner time in 15 minutes.

Everything looks amazing my friend! loving that brisket
 
cheers
Thanks! The brisket went over very well with all of the dinner guests, and my neighbors. There was even a smoked brisket first, since my friend brought over his GF that just got here from Ecuador. She liked it, and was asking a good amount of questions about the WBS, since they don't have that style of grill in her country.
 
Chicken. I don't like chicken breast very much, so I pretty much never cook it, unless I do a whole chicken. I started a marinade of these chicken thighs and legs in deysi yogurt, lime juice, coconut milk, culantro, onion, garlic, ginger powder, freshly plicked ajis from the garden, and S&P. My wife requested it spicy, so she'll get spicy! I dropped these zips in the fridge to soak in the flavor.
