Did this one see any heat at all...ha ha ha ha

Well, I set it on the grate in the smoker and waved a candle over it. Does that count?

Just poking at you Robert

I know you are David...and that's just the fun nature of our friendship.

All kidding aside Robert. That is a great spread for 3 fellas. and nice camera work.

Thank you sir. It was a nice meal even if a bit overboard with the meat. Still a fun time seeing Doug's face when I plopped that rib down on his plate.

And as long as your pup had her dessert of the pick of the 3 bones

Well, she got the one I picked for her but she is always thrilled to get one. Being the most spoiled pup on the planet, there's no way she's going to miss out on a nice beef bone.

A plate any true American man would be thrilled sitting down to, great work!

Thank you my friend. It was certainly an all American meal and one enjoyed by all 3 of us. Was also a fun cook being that I'm really getting a handle on running the new smoker. BTW, great to see you getting back in the saddle buddy.

That’s a rib I can get behind and demolish! Nicely done Robert.

Thanks Joe!! Get behind the rib, maybe. Demolish it, I have my doubts Those things were huge....but oh so good!!

Great looking meal Robert

Thank you Jim. I appreciate it sir.

[tx smoker]

Hahaha you are such a cut-up! You are way ahead of me sir!

Well, you know i like having fun but I also try to show respect for people who deserve it....and you certainly deserve it. Some of the stuff you've showcased recently boggles the mind. Truly amazing food...but I wonder what you do with all of it Nothing like cooking a 12 pound chunk of meat all for yourself

I can't wait to smoke one of those, That was the second choice for fathers day, if they didn't have tomahawk

Appreciate the kind words. I'm 100% convinced after doing several roasts this way that the very low cook temp really makes a difference in the finished meal.

That new smoker seems to work very well, and you have it dialed in for sure. Awesome!

I'm getting there with the smoker. Being a hybrid design, none of the tried-and-true techniques really apply. I'm having tomake up a whole new set of rules for this rig but making progress.

Thanks so much Keith. The pics came out well but I have a feeling that Tracy would protest my choice of artwork were I try to frame it for display

I eat a little and give the rest away to a few good neighbors!!!

When the protein is that good you dont need extravagant sides to detract from the greatness!

Looks like you've got that smoker completely dialed in Robert. Excellent work my friend!

 

[BrianGSDTexoma]

You nailed the cook on that Rib! The whole looks wonderful.

 

[civilsmoker]

Dang Robert, that is a beefy rib you got there!!!!! I would gobble that all day long!

Oh don't let DRKsmoking give you a hard time..... that rib is the right kind of "doneness"!!!!

 

[smokin peachey]

Wow everything looks spot on!

 

[edmonds]

Here is a concept that I'd bet very few, if any, have considered for their Throwdown entry. Per entry requirements, here is one pic with a brief description and the code word "Ribs".

Food looks great.

But I don't anything about a throwdown.

I figured as much. Same thing our good friend Jeff ( jcam222 ) does when he cooks up 400 pounds of meat on a weekend Very thoughtful and considerate thing to do for your neighbors.

Thank you once again Jim for the positive reinforcement I need to justify being lazy....and not wanting to cook a bunch of stuff

Thank you Matt. Still working on fine tuning the little tweaks but overall I'm getting a handle on how it works. being a hybrid design it's totally different than any smoker I've ever had...but it's also pretty awesome

Thank you sir!! It was a pretty tasty and gratifying meal, that's for sure.

Thanks so much buddy. It'd take all day long to get through one of those ribs

Oh don't let DRKsmoking give you a hard time..... that rib is the right kind of "doneness"!!!!

Oh David ( DRKsmoking ) doesn't bother me. If he wants to torch his meat, that's his choice In the meantime he and I just have fun poking at each other like this. You know how those Canadians are...just no savvy where good beef is concerned
