Well, thanks to all the great photos and cooks on here I have been really getting back into cooking since I got the WSM.

Today is football day and the Jags (2 and 11, now 2 and 12) were playing Miami. I wanted to do something I had never made before. I decided to make some baby backs, which I have done before, and a blooming onion which I never had.

First I had to get some new plates since everyone's on here look so good and all I had was flowered ones leftover from d'vorce. Got them the other day....

Then I figured I would use the second 18.5 WSM I picked up on CL. It needed to be used and seasoned so I figured the slightly higher heat ribs would be good to try. Temps held good....

Then prepared the onion. While the ribs were resting, into the oil it went

Pulled it out and it wasnt pretty, but the color was good...

Made some dipping sauce and got a cold beer

Here it is plated and ready to eat.

The ribs were not burnt as they look in the picture. They were actually the second best ones I ever made. Thanks to all the help on here I think I have actually gotten the hang of the WSM.

Thanks for looking and CHEERS!
 
Nice plate...and ribs and onion. Others say burnt, I say bark. I like the bark on those ribs. Sorry about your Jags (kinda).
 
Ya, its almost comical to watch the jags now, lol.

The ribs didnt have bark on them, the pic just came out that way with my phone I guess. They were very tender, only problem was I ate so much onion I couldnt eat the whole slab. Oh well, good lunch tomorrow
 
Great looking cook Rick! You think this week was bad for the Jags? Wait until next week against the Patriots! I have tickets for the game and hope the Jags prove me wrong, but I won't hold my breath! ;)
 
Thanks for the comments everyone.

Mike and Brian S. I am glad to see some other people from the area on here :cool:

NOTE TO SELF: Dont go to work and brag about some good food you made, or they will want you to make it again....

So I went to work and did exactly that, and ended up making 4 more blooming onions. Flour everywhere

but here are two of them

It seems that the entire NFL is in the same boat. But, who cares about football, when you have food like that? It looks delicious! ;)
