3 Pound Baby Back Ribs

Two nice big slabs of baby backs.

Rinse the blood and pat dry.


Cheap yellow mustard and Dizzy Pig Swamp Venom rub.

6 hours and 45 minutes later.


A couple of different things about this cook.

Raised grid (standard)
225 grate temp (trying to find the sweet spot)
No water in the drip pan
6 hours at 225
45 minutes at 260
Sweet Baby Ray's sauce applied last 15 minutes

3 hours flip
1 hour flip
2:45 hours

50/50 apple juice and apple cider vinegar spray every 30 minutes after the first 3 hours

There was no char on the sauce higher temp or more time needed.

The thickness of the ribs added to the cooking time. Normally 5 to 6 hours on baby back ribs.

Boston Butt


The seasoning. Dizzy Pig Swamp Venom Rub and cheap yellow mustard.

19 pounds of pork.

Slathered with yellow mustard.

Heavily dusted with rub. About 4-5 ounces.


After 15 hours at 225 grate temperature.


I did one fat cap up and one fat cap down. Not much difference fat cap up in the future.

Remember after cooking, removing the bone(s) and fat. You get about 60-65% of pre-cooked weight.
