Next month all of my family and friends will gather with the main course being ribs smoked by my Brother-in-law, my Uncle & myself. It's tuned into a rib fest competition of sorts with friends/family voting for their favorite ribs.
Recently my Sister mentioned how she and my B-in-law had been practicing their ribs and that the last ones they made were the best they've made. She said they but them in a SLOW COOKER (CROCKPOT) for five hours and then only put them on their smokeer for about an hour "just to get that smoked flavor"!!!!!
It was all I could do to keep my mouth shut. Pure sacrilege! She kept saying all they just fell off the bone. Anyway I just said "I bet they were good" and left it at that.
I don't mind not having the favored ribs as I've only been smoking for a year or so BUT I don't want to lose to some crockpot cooked/steamed ribs!!!! They may be more tender than mine but mine will be true bbq smoke ribs and hopefully be more flavorful. God.....please don't let me lose to crockpot ribs (lol).
Thanks for letting me vent,
Dan
