First things first! Happy Memorial day to everyone as we took the time to celebrate and remember all the heroes that have passed!

I hope everyone had a good smoke day also.

On Sunday, we had about 6 families gather for a bbq. I smoked 4 racks of spare ribs and 2 lbs of mac and cheese, all on my 22.5 WSM. The ribs are already a favorite among family and friends, but this is my first attempt at mac and cheese.

I went crazy with charcoal that was on sale at HD.

This should last me for the summer at least!

Here's the ribs I made with homemade rub and sauce. :)

I bought 6 racks, but luckily only smoked 4.

This is what I am most proud of. This Mac and Cheese was delicious. I got the recipe from a smoking meat forum. I had a friend that doesn't even like cheese go in for seconds!

I don't know what is more fun for me, smoking this food, or eating this food.

OK, it's eating it!
 
That's quite the haul of charcoal!! The ribs look great and there is no better side dish out there than smoked mac and cheese! Nice work!
 
Good job! Nice pullback on the ribs.

You might have enough charcoal to last until the 4th of July.
 
After going through about 26 pounds of charcoal in the last 30 hours, I am second guessing the amount I got on Friday. I’m not sure the remaining eight bags will last until the 4th! I just didn’t have time to clear space and go back for more. Drat!
 
Nick, that is some great looking food and your mac and cheese looks delicious. Don't worry about going crazy on the charcoal, we had 10 single bags and pick up 3 more twin packs also. Maybe this will get us to Sept. l
 
Very nice cook Nick, ribs look great as does the mac and cheese. Actually we have a total of 19 bags of charcoal, Barb didn't see a couple of bags buried in the back. Might be enough to hold us till sept.
 
Good cooks and good to load up on charcoal during the sales.
I still have 12 20 lbs. Bags that shows the last time i bought any and then it was a lot. Keep on cooking.
