Saturday Spares

On Saturday I smoked some spares for me and my boy and was planning on sharing the pictures but right around the time I was taking the ribs off, my neighbor dropped over with his 3 boys and some friends. Well long story short the ribs came off and the boys dug in before I could snap any shots of the finished product. Anyway, here’s a shot of the spares (I smoked the trimmed meat as a snack for me and my boy) rubbed down with Wolfe Rub Original, one of the WSM starting to heat up, and one when the temp hit 250. I smoked them for 5 hours (didn’t foil) and used a mix of cherry and pecan. Here's aWebshots link and please let me know if there are any problems viewing the pictures. I'm bummed All You Can Upload is no longer working.

Sound great.

Toby, your smoker looks pretty darn clean. How many cooks have you done on her? Too bad about the photos of the finished product. Although I don't need anymore reasons to smoke something. I will be smoking a pork butt tomorrow afternoon to serve on Thursday. That's if I csn get it seasoned and let it sit for at least a half a day. Right now it's not looking so good as I just took the butt out of the freezer. As you know Toby, it's going to be hot here this weekend, and I am having Larry R and his family over for some grilling and chillin and of course the consumption of adult beverages.
Look forward to your next cook and the pics.
 
Hi Ed, I have about 10+ cooks on it so far, I received it in November as a birthday gift from my wife. I’m kind of anal so I like to keep it as clean as possible. In addition to cleaning the racks and water pan, I wipe down the outside with soap and water after each cook. My wife’s beginning to think I love my WM more then her. Unfortunately I wont be smoking anything this weekend as my wife’s mom isn’t doing very well health wise so we are heading down to San Diego for a visit. However, the following weekend I will be smoking something and will post the whole cook. Good luck with the butt and enjoy the weather this weekend, I’ll look for a report.
 
I guess that's waht I should have done from the start, but I have a tendency to have a few to many beers when I am cooking and neglect to keep her that clean. Now I have to try ifferent cleaners just to try and get it where it doesn't look so bad. Lots of smoke splotches. Oh well, I get lots of use out of it as well. Probably at least two times per week.
We'll all say a prayer for your mother-in-law, and be safe on your drive down...
