Special guests (Kielbasa, Knockwurst and the rolled up skirt from the backside of the spares

The beef ribs were moved from the lower rack to the skybox
(I think they're tired of the heat....)

we're almost done....
 
...both spares and beef ribs were removed from the WSM to the warming drawer
on the oven in the kitchen...
butt before that took place, about 20 fingerlings were put on the grates then lowered
closer to the burning charcoal....
I used a Smoky Joe cookin' grate with two stainless rods to keep the whole contraption from falling in the Kingsford...

...plated both the pork & beef ribs & the baby-darlin' taters & this was it (with the steamed beans)...

The pork spares were rubbed, as always, with Penzey's 3000 and Galena Street
and the beef ribs, as always, were marinated overnight in Stubb's Beef Marinade.
The consistant temp of the WSM was approximately 235- 250'F for 4.5 hours.
The Knockwurst was split after one hour then an additional 30 minutes then removed...
and the Kielbasa fell apart about the same time.
All the sausage will be used for salads during the week,
with the exception of those i did eet today

lefto leftov leftovers?
It's the big one Elizabeth!

My O' My Jim, you've outdone yourself!
Everything looks outstanding!
Better tell Mac to make those Weber jammies XL!
 
So did you put those taters over the coals before the ribs were done? i.e. did you set the middle/top section on top of those rods?
 
Jim outstanding!

Looks perfect i thought you and me was on the same page,when something like this is ready to come off the smoker an invitation is "standard"
ok?

Thx for sharing Lampe!
 
thank you

Chris, i did have the spuds over the coal before the ribs were taken off, and then were put on a Smoky Joe cookin' grate and the rods only were used to hold that smaller grate elevated over the heat.
Daniel, there is always an open invitation!
 
Beautiful! Lampe plates just blow me away. The only person I know who can eat plates of food like that is my 220 pound, 20 year old son who works out all the time. Amazing.... Keep 'em coming!
 
Beautiful cook Jim. I have to say those beef ribs were special though. Wish I could get them cut that way out in these parts. They tend to be over trimmed here.
