Another grill dying story - I’m hoping someone can verify safety, specifically ribs. Started ribs on a traeger grill set to 225. Went back to check after 30 mins and temp had dropped to 150. I got it back up to 225 and had to leave unattended to run next door. I worked on sauces for a couple of hours and came back to “err” and the grill was warm, cool enough to touch- as were the ribs. Visually, the rub was still fresh looking with a couple of spots beginning to blacken. Found out the pellets were out( new to using and didn’t realize pellets wouldn’t all fall to inside. Kicking my self, so go easy) refilled and raised temp to 250. I Checked the temp on the ribs and got 116. This is in addition to a 30 minute span out of the fridge before cooking. Reading other threads about intact vs ground meats and hoping this can be saved. Wanted to know if anyone can advise for pork ribs specifically, wouldn’t worry like this for red meat. Thank you!
