Spares with a snake (but not the snake method)

Note to self, just because it says Weber on it, and is on clearance for under 3 bucks, does not mean it is a useful item.
Case in point, this roast/rib rack.

Kind of scrawny rack of ribs with tips, rubbed with Tasty Licks, and started with 2 baskets of lump & maple wood.

Bourbon in hand I looked down from the deck and saw this guy in a newly planted area of the yard.
Longest lens at hand was 75mm, so this is a heavy crop.

He had to be over 6 feet long.
No harm came to him of course.

Tried a different arrangement with the ribs, and added 2 small spuds.

Sauced after about 4 hrs.

I topped my potato with leftover 'sauce' from making Bandana's potato salad.

Ribs should have went another hour, but I started them late, and they got ate!

I like to close with a flower pic, and I found this very camera shy beauty on my deck.
Some might remember the WW diet she started a few months ago.
She's half way to her goal weight, and I'm a proud hubby!

Thanks for the visit, Happy Monday!
 
Hey Bob... Great post. Lovely picture of your wife. That plate looks great also. Ribs look perfect. I have a couple of those racks that I use with my 22 1/2 WSM. I've used them once and was able to get 5 racks of bb's on the top rack and 4 on the lower. Cooked the ribs vertically. That's one big snake. We don't have the nice kind around here, just the ones like this. A little blurry but I took it with my IPhone as I was moving back. I sat down in my chair, taking a break and looked over and saw him.

 
Bob, That's one lovely lady you share your life with. As far as the snake goes all we have here is nasty ones, but to me all snakes are nasty, safer that way.
Cook looks good too!
 
Thanks everyone!
last time I post a pic of Jo, she's getting more compliments than my cook or my snake pic.:p

Cliff, you call that a snake? :)
On my wall is the skin from a timber rattler, it was about to strike me, but my shovel struck first.
He had a whole, recently swallowed grey squirrel inside.
years ago, in my surveying days, out in the wilds of MO.

Great looking pics Bob!! I have yet to fine a good rib rack that is easy to clean, I usually just roll my ribs if I run out of room.

Lovely Wife Bob, you defiantly married up!!! ;);)
 
Great looking summer plate there , robert. I wish we had some snakes round here. Maybe they'd eat the dang chipmunks!
Nice going on the slim down , mrs bob. Great accomplishment. You're a lucky guy , bob. You remind me of me !
 
That's a nice looking wall, Bob. That is one big timber rattler too. We don't get those out here, not that I know of. Well, your snake was bigger but mine had a lot of heart!
 
Awesome cook Bob and your wife looks beautiful! As far as the snake goes, good thing he was in yard and not mine. He would not be living! ;) As I have said it many
times before I HATE SNAKES with a passion! Especially after the one that got into my house a couple years back.
 
Very interesting use of the rack. Ribs, spuds and corn look great.

By the way, you definitely married up. :p
