Hi, my name is Jim and I live in Stoughton, Wisconsin. Years ago I fished Lake Michigan a lot and won a Little Chief. I smoked a lot of Salmon back then, but when I pulled the old Chief out a few weeks ago, it popped circut breakers.

I picked up a Masterbuilt electric at Cabelas a couple of weeks ago and got 5 nice brown trout Wednesday and Thursday. Smoked them yesterday and they came out great.

I got Jeff's rib rub recipe and just finished mixing the ingredients. Tomorrow comes the 3-2-1 test. I see there are a lot of tips on this forum and appreciate any help, tips, recipes etc.

Anyone have any experience with whitetail ribs?

Welcome To Your New Addiction
 
First of all, welcome aboard Jimbo.
I don't have a lot of experience with venison, would just mention that it'll probably be much leaner than pork or beef ribs.
As you know, we go low and slow to break down the fat and make things tasty.
I think I would choose the 2-2-1 method, and make sure I spritzed them good to keep them moist without the benefit of the additonal fat melting.

Let us know how you make out!

Good luck and good smoking.
 
Welcome to smf and as for venison ribs I would think a quick smoke and maybe a quick finish on a grill would do it. there isn't a lot of meat on those ribs and fat either. good luck and would like to see some pics if you do it.
 
Welcome to SMF Jim.

If your whitetail rib question is not answered in Roll Call feel free to start a thread-someone on forum has probably smoked them
 
Welcome to the SMF, and congrats on your new MES. Jeff's rub is a very good base rub, and remember that the 3-2-1 method is a general method. As time goes on, you may change it to your likings. Good luck my friend.
 
Welcome to the forum, Jim. When using Jeff's rub, I substitute turbinado for the brown sugar. The brown sugar tends to burn quicker than the turbinado.
 
Jim,
When I lived in Iowa, I never thought of using anything on Venison, but now that I live in Colorado, the deer out here feed on the sage. Italian dressing usually helps tame the sage taste, maybe there something like that you could use to dress the ribs to help them from drying out too fast?
 
Welcome, Glad to have you with us. This is the place to learn, lots of good info and helpful friendly Members.
