  • I was inspired by others who have recently purchased a Memphis Elite and were sharing their cooks.  So, I decided to pull some items out of the freezer and get them on the grill today.  Grill set temp is 275°.  Currently, sunny and 45° with 15 mph sustained winds and gusts 20-25 mph.

    Baby Backs about 1 hour into the cook.  I believe these were from Restaurant Depot and were about 8.5# for the 3 racks.  I had thawed them in water this morning.  They were very cold when they were rubbed with Cabela's Pecan Honey and Maple Bacon Bourbon Chipotle rubs.  Had enough to finish off what was left in the two containers on the 3 racks.





    Johnsonville Grillers I had in the freezer for quite some time.  Will see how they turn out as I have never had them before.  I think I bought them at Sam's last year. They were added to the grill with the ribs (6 patties) about 1.5 hours into the rib cook at 275°

  • Johnsonville Grillers pulled after about 1 hour at 275°.  They were OK and got better dipped into BBQ sauce.  I probably will not buy them again as I think I would make my own next time.  If you wanted something different than a beef patty, I would give these a try if I were you if you get them for a good price.  Not out of this world great, but something different.  Sorta like a really firm sausage.


    Baby Back Ribs about 2.5 hours into the cook.  I am using Camp Chef cherry on one side of the pellet hopper and cookinpellets in the other side

  • Cherry wood puts a dark color on the exterior as expected



    Chipotle Rub - first time I have used this on rib's...it has a nice kick and chipotle smokey taste


    Pecan Honey - I have used this plenty of times before as it is a nice sweet flavor that my wife likes

  • You really make those Cabelas rubs sound tasty. I'm gonna have to stop and get some.

    They are $10 a bottle so they are not cheap.  Sometime they have them on sale for $8.  But, I have liked most that I have used.  The Maple Jalapeno may be my favorite.
