  • We will be doing this cook on the Daniel Boone Grill from Green Mountain Grills. We start with a large spare rib. There is actually two and I bought them at our local market for $13 a piece.
  • First step is we need to square up the ribs by doing a St. Louis cut. First I find the end of the ribs and make a shallow cut. Using the knife you keep making deeper cuts till you cut all the way through. What you want is as close to a rectangle as possible with both sides parallel with each other. Now do not throw away and of the extra meat. That meat makes fantastic rib meat tacos or pork shepherd’s pie.
  • Now with everything squared up you can now trim the flap meat that sits on top. These ribs had the membrane already removed but if the membrane is present it needs to be removed.
  • Repeat the same procedure on the second rack of ribs and then put both racks into a full-size foil pan.
  • Now it is time for the rub. On this cook, I am using the Everything Rub for Loot N Booty. It is a great pork rub but like they say it is good on everything, On these ribs, you need to use a lot of rub and you need to cover every inch. One reason why I use a foil pan is first I do not want to make a mess but second I do not waste any rub.
  • In a preheated grill set at 225F put ribs directly on the grate.
  • Now cook for 3 hours.
  • Remove ribs and place in to the same full size foil pan from before. I use a foil pan so I can put the sauce on right away and do have to worry about foil wrap messing up my sauce. The glazing sauce we are using is Southwest Sweet Heat BBQ sauce. Apply sauce to the top side of the ribs. I usually put two coats but just on top. Leaving one side dry make is a lot easier to handle the ribs and with two coats you have plenty of sauce and glaze.
  • Now this part is very important. You need to use a new lid. You then put the lid on and make sure that it Is completely sealed. The pan has to be airtight. By being airtight the ribs will not dry out and even more important the sauce will not burn.
  • Now it is back to the 225F grill to cook for 2 more hours.
  • Then remove lid and let ribs sit uncovered but still in pan for 1 more hour. Check at 30 minutes to make sure the sauce does not burn. After the final hour pull ribs for grill.
  • So this is how they should look. You want that dark mahogany color and the glaze should firm and not runny. When you cut the ribs the meat should stay together and the cuts should look very clean. No mushy ribs. As you can see as I cut the ribs they cut real clean and have a great smoke ring. Also the glaze is staying on the ribs and not getting all over the cutting board.
  • As you can see the ribs are firm, have a clean cut and have a great smoke ring. Also the glaze is staying on the ribs and not getting all over the cutting board. This method will give you perfect ribs every time.

  • Apply Rub. When applying the rub the salt will dissolve into the meat. This action is actually what we call a dry brine and will make the roast hold moister and even help make it more tender. If you have the time let the roast sit for 4 hours in the refrigerator uncovered before we take it to the grill.
    apply rub
  • This next step is optional, but I think by spraying a vegetable oil on the rub it will keep the rub in place and also allow the outside of the roast to develop a better bark.

The Rub

Instructions

  • To do this cook we started with a 7-pound pork shoulder with blade bone.
    pork shoulder
  • First, we need a simple rub.
    the rub
  • 4 tablespoons of kosher or sea salt.
    salt
  • 4 tablespoons of black pepper.
    black pepper
  • 4 Tablesppon of Minced Onion.
    onion
  • 4 Tablespoons of Garlic Powder.
    garlic powder
  • Now you need to mix well. Some people even use a spice blender but a bowl and large spoon will also work.
    mix well
  • Now we need to apply the rub The process is, apply rub and then spray with oil. It is important that the salt make contact with the meat before applying the oil. This way the salt will penetrate the meat.
    apply rub
  • Try and make sure the pork shoulder is fully covered in the rub. Repeat this process until all sides are covered. The rub does two things. It seasoned the meat and adds flavor. Also, it allows the outside of the shoulder to develop a bark that adds texture to the meat.
    spray oil
  • Preheat Trailblazer to 275F and then add pork shoulder to grill.
    preheat
  • Insert meat probes for both the grill and the FireBoard thermometer.
    meat probes
  • The Recteq App allows you to have full control over the grill as long as you have access to the internet.As you can see the grill set point is 275F. The meat temperature is 36F and the ambient temperature or current air temperature inside the grill is 80F.
    rec tec app
  • Now here is the data from the FireBoard that does not even need an app for it records all temperatures directly to a website that actually catalogs each cook.As you can see here is when the shoulder hit 160F and had to be foiled.
    160F
  • Add ½ of apple juice to the pan then seal up the shoulder with foil and then let it cook till it reaches an internal temperature of 195F.
  • Remove from grill and let rest for 30 to 60 minutes. Here how that looks on the FireBoard chart. The large swings in ambient temperature were due to having to readjust the minimum pellet rate on the grill This adjustment only needed to be done on extremely hot or cold days. This day it was 98F and we were in direct sunlight. Now that the grill is adjusted it holds temperature with 3 degrees. Now the pork should is done we need to pull from the grill. The ultimate test of a done pork shoulder is removing the shoulder blade bone.
    remove bone
  • Now drain off Excess Juices but leave about a cup in the pan so the meat stays moist as you shred it. Now get you bear claw shredders and start breaking it down into smaller pieces.
    bear claws
  • As you can see the very dark part is the bark and the darker red sections are the smoke ring.
    finished pork
  • To finish this pulled pork I am going to use Big Bob Gibson’s white sauce. Highly recommend it if you want to reduce sugar or carbs in your diet. In the south when they use the white sauce with pulled pork they usually serve with biscuits instead of rolls but it good no matter how you eat it.
    white sauce
  • Highly recommend the Recteq Trailblazer for it did a great job cooking this pork shoulder. I now use the FireBoard thermometer to monitor and catalog all my BBQ cooks. Actually, the two together are a dynamite combination if you are serious about making great BBQ.

  • In this video, we will be smoking baby back ribs on the Recteq Bullseye Grill First, we have to prepare the ribs and then mean we need to remove the membrane. Find a really dull butter knife.
    butter knife
  • Starting on the wider part of the ribs slowly lift the membrane using the dull knife. When there is enough membrane to grab use a paper towel to slowly remove the membrane The more membranes you remove the easier it gets.
    remove membrane
  • Now get a broiling pan and lay the ribs with the membrane side up. We now apply the rub. This time I am using Mc Cormick grill mates sweet and smoky rub. I do one rack of ribs at a time. First, I apply rub and then I spray with a vegetable oil so the rub stays in place. The reason you apply the rub first is you want the salts and sugars to dissolve in the meat. You do not want the oil to get in between the rub and the meat.
    apply rub
  • Then flip over the ribs and do it all over again. As far as oil I have tried many but any low-cost cooking oil will work. If you have the time you might want to let the rub sit for about thirty minutes. Then it is off to the grill.
    flip ribs and add more rub
  • You should pre heat the bullseye grill till it is a minimum of 225F. I find adjusting the Temperature dial to the 10 o clock position will get pretty close to temperature.
    10 o clock
  • I like my ribs without a lot of moisture but you could add apple juice, honey or even Parkay. Now cook for 2 more hours.
    foiled ribs
  • Remove the foil and be careful to not let the juice fall to the bottom of the grill. You can see how the ribs are bending they are technically done but we are going them dry out on the grill for another 30 minutes. I did not save the juices this time but if I had been doing mash potatoes I would of use them to make a gravy.
    last 30 minutes
  • So here is our FireBoard Session. We cooked for 4 hours and 38 minutes. Our average temperature was 231F and as you can see the Bullseye was extremely consistent on temperature. We cook for 2 hours on top of the GrillGrates
    fireboard 1
  • We then wrapped in foil for 2 more hours.
  • We then let the ribs dry out for 30 more minutes.
  • Ribs are now done and the first thing we look for are they tender and not mushy. They sliced very well and were consistent all the way from the outside rib to the middle ribs.
    cut ribs
  • I then took some of the meat from an end rib and boy was it tasty. One big greasy thumbs up.
  • Now we look to make sure the rib is not dry and has a well-developed smoke ring. The ribs were not dry and had a great looking smoke ring.
  • The next and last test is the tug test.
  • The meat is NOT falling off the bone but as you bite the meat come CLEAN from the bone. We call that a clean tug. All I can say is the Bullseye does a great job of smoking ribs.

Instructions

Real Time Chart of Cook

  • This is my first low and slow cook using a Recteq Bullseye Grill. Making Pulled Pork and using the FireBoard Cloud Connected Smart Thermometer. Estimated time to cook 8 hours at 275F. Real-time was 8 hours and 36 minutes at an average temperature of 284F Cooked on grate till an internal temperature of 160F then foiled and cooked till 195F and then pulled.

Setup Grill

  • First thing, we put a foil pan underneath where the pork shoulder is going to sit on the grate. The Bullseye does not have a drip pan and no one wants to clean the grease out of the bottom of the grill. We then put the ambient temperature probe right in from of the pork shoulder as close to the middle of the grill as possible.

Applying the Rub

  • Now we need to season the pork shoulder. For this cook, I am using only Adobo seasoning with Pepper as my rub. Adobo seasoning is my goto when making carnitas and wanted to give this pulled pork a Mexican flavor. Make sure you season all sides and I go around the roast two time. Adobo has plenty of salt and will still give you a nice bark without having to add any sugar. Actually, this recipe is great if you on a Keto diet.

Putting Pork Shoulder on Grate

  • Now make sure you have preheated the bullseye grill to at least 250F. One really cool feature of the fireboard thermometer is the moment you plug in a probe it will start data logging. Now center the pork shoulder over the foil pan and make sure the meat probe is in the middle of the roast but not touching the bone. Close the lid and set the pellet speed to third position from off or if you are x military set it at 10:00 a clock.

Cooking until 160F then Foil

  • Now three more hours and the pork shoulder is at 160F and will be foiled so it will not dry out. To be on the safe side I use a foil pan with foil wrap to make sure the pork shoulder is fully wrapped but if I get a tear I can keep the juices out of the bottom of the bullseye.
  • Leave the meat probe in and make sure the foil is not touching the probe. Now put the pork shoulder back on the grill and close the lid.

Carolina Mustard Sauce

  • Mix all ingredients well and then let the sauce sit for about 20 minutes.

Shred and Add Sauce

  • Shred with Bear Claws and then switch to two forks. Add Carolina Mustard Sauce to pork and then use forks to evenly spread the sauce over every inch of the pork. Now serve the pulled pork with your favorite coleslaw.

FireBoard Results

  • Here are the final results of the cook using the FireBoard Smart Thermometer. First Low and Slow cook on Bullseye Grill using FireBoard Smart Thermometer. Estimated time to cook 8 hours at 275F. Real-time was 8 hours and 36 minutes at an average temperature of 284F Cooked on grate till an internal temperature of 160F then foiled and cooked till 195F and then pulled.

    • Pulled pork comes from the pork shoulder or Boston butt. This part of the pig has both fat and a lot of connective tissue.
      pig diagram

    The Rub

    • First step, we will start with the rub. This is simple but very affective rub when doing a sous vide cook. One cup of Montreal Steak Seasoning. One quarter cup of Garlic Salt. Two tablespoons of Cumin. And two tablespoons of dry mustard.
      rub ingredients
    • Mix well in a mixing bowl and try to remember that we need the salt well distributed through the rub. The salt will act like a dry brine helping to not only season the pork but also tenderize it as the pork cooks.
      mix rub

    Prepare for the Cook

    • Now go find the ugliest broiler pan you can find. Empty roast into pan keeping the juices from the bag. I roll the roast in the juices so the when I apply the rub the rub will stick to the roast Apply the rub to every inch of the roast. Make sure you use every bit of the rub for you need all the salt so the roast can tenderize.
    • Now here comes the real challenge. How do you get an 8-pound roast into an 11-inch wide bag? Put roast into vacuum bag without rubbing off the rub. This part is important for the bag end has to be clean so you can use the vacuum seal. Also if you have any rub left just put it into the bag.
      put in bag
    • Make sure the sealer is set in liquid or moist mode depending on your unit. Now vacuum seal the roast in the bag.
      seal roast in sous vide bag
    • I always double seal the bag at both ends when using larger pieces of meat. I have never had a bag failure when doing a double seal.
      double seal

    Sous Vide Cook

    • Now it is into the bath at 165F for 24 hours.
      pulled port in sous vide bath
    • 24 hours later remove from bath and make sure you have a half size foil pan ready. Now carefully drain juices into the pan and then remove roast from the bag. You will need some of these juices when it comes to shredding the pork Now go get another foil tray and transfer the roast over. Remember to save the juices.
      remove from bag
    • Now it is time to pat down and dry the surface of the roast. I then sprinkle some more Montreal steak Seasoning. This will allow the roast to develop a crust or bark as we say in BBQ.
      pat down pork

    The Smoke and Bark

    • Goes into the smoker or grill setup up for indirect cooking at 225F for 2 hours.
      in smoker

    The Shred

    • As you can see it has a great bark. Also, it is extremely tender. I could have just used my hand to pull it apart. If you have ever done pulled pork you will know that it does not get any better than this. Not only is it tender but all the excess fat has rendered into the meat or meat juices that we saved.
    • First pass I use the big claws to break the roast into large pieces.
    • Now It is time to add some of the juice back. This is personal preference but I did add some apple cider vinegar and mustard to the juices.
    • Now the final pass and this time you use two forks and shredded it to your liking. Pulled pork is great in sandwiches, with eggs, in enchiladas, burritos and if you add onions and green salsa one of my favorites and that is carnitas.

This cook we will be doing three racks of baby back ribs that I bought at Sam’s Club for $28.52. Or $9.51 a slab.
      pig baby back ribs
    • As always the hardest part of doing ribs is just getting them out of the bag and second, you got to remove the membrane on the back of each rack. Some people do not see the benefit of removing the membrane but it is actually even more important to remove when cooking sous vide. The membrane Is going to stop the seasoning from entering the meat. Especially salt that actually helps tenderize the rib meat during the cooking process. To remove the membrane, I use a butter knife. The duller the better. Get under the membrane at the narrow end of the rack. Using a paper towel grab the end of the membrane and slowly pull.
    • Being pre-diabetic I do not use any rubs that contain sugar. Actually, I prefer rubs that add texture and a little heat without coloring or sweetening the taste of the meat. This cook I am using Montreal steak seasoning. If you want to make your own homemade version there is a link to our website showing you how to do it. https://learntobbq.com/recipes/homemade-montreal-steak-seasoning/ In addition, I am using Weber Bold Chipotle to add some heat.
      seasoned ribs
    • After applying the rub I then coat the ribs and rub with an oil spray. Use whatever type of oil spray that you like. This one says it is butter flavored but it is not butter. It is just soybean oil. I also use an olive oil spray that works just as well.
    • Now flip them over and do it all over again with the seasoning and spray oil.
    • Now we need to get the ribs into the cooking bags. I am using a vacuum sealer but you also use ziplok bags. If you use ziplok bags you will need to cut the racks in half so they can fit. Also, I bought my vacuum sealer for $80 so you do not need to spend a lot of money on a vacuum sealer. The one I bought was the Gourmia and it is listed above in Cooking Tools but do your own research and buy the one that is best for you. The secret to putting the ribs into the bag is to let gravity help. Also, I use the 11 inch wide bags. Hold the bag open in one hand and then grab the ribs from one end and hold directly over the bag. Slowly lowering the ribs into the bag. With a little practice, it really is not that hard. Just make sure you try and not rub any of the seasoning off.
    • Now on to the sealing. Make sure your unit is in regular vacuum and that it is set for moist or liquid mode based on your unit. I always double seal each end of the bag. Since I have been doing that I have never had a bag failure. As the air is removed make sure that there are no bubbles and that the bag makes complete contact with the ribs. Here is what it looks like when they are doubled sealed.
    • Now on to the bath. Pre-heat your sous vide cooker to 165F. Then put your ribs into preheated cooker cook them for 12 hours. You can go to a lower temperature like 145F but you will have to triple the time to 36 hours and have done both times and temperatures I believe the 165F for 12 hours texture is more what I like in a rib.
    • 12 hours later remove ribs from cooking bags. Pat dry and then reapply the rub. Very important to remove the moisture or the rub will absorb it and instead of a nice crust or bark you will have a mushy soft mess.
    • Now into a 275F preheated smoker or grill that is set up for indirect cooking. Let the ribs smoke for 1 hour.
    • As I cut them it hardly takes any pressure at all. These are very tender ribs. They also are cooked all the way through but still have a nice pinkest color. They also have that perfect mahogany color bark.
    • Now the Tug Test. First bite shows the perfect rib. Firm and not mussy but also extremely tender and the meat easily separates from the bone as you bite in. Second bite was just as good as the first.
    • The ribs from all three slabs were exactly the same. Usually, when just doing the full cook on the smoker some racks will be better than other. With sous vide cooking there was not a marginal rib in the bunch. These baby back ribs are the best I have ever cooked and were actually easier to cook than just using my smoker. Then I usually foil and add liquid halfway through the cook so the ribs will not dry out. Bon appetite.

    • The pork loin is the area between the shoulder and the back legs of the pig. This meat is very lean and is also the most tender part of the hog. This pork loin was just under six pounds.
      pig loin
    • We will be using an adobo seasoning and besides the fact that it adds a lot of flavor it will also help tenderize the meat by acting as a dry brine. The one I’m using today is from Lowry’s and this one also includes pepper. They also have a version without pepper if the pepper is an issue.
      adobo seasoning
    • Get a container. I like using a glass 15-inch by 10-inch rectangular baking dish. Put the seasoned loin into the dish. When seasoning make sure you cover every inch of the pork loin. The salt in the adobo seasoning will play a second role besides taste by acting as a dry brine. Adobo or Adobar in Spanish means marinade, sauce or seasoning. Adobo was employed initially as a method for food preservation but now its primary purpose is just to add a lot of great flavor to your meat. Now put the dish into the refrigerator for up to 12 hours so the loin can get the benefit of the Dry Brine.
      dry brine
    • So what is a Dry Brine? This is when the salt draws out the juices in the meat through osmosis. Next, the salt dissolves into these juices essentially turning into a wet brine even though there isn’t any embedded liquid. And finally, this brine is reabsorbed into the meat and starts breaking down tough muscle proteins resulting in a juicy, tender, seasoned meat.
      dry brine
    • Now is the time to put the loin into a vacuum sealed bag using your vacuum sealer. Remove all the air from the bag and seal. if you plan on doing a lot of sous-vide cooking I highly recommend you buy one of these units. The model I bought was well under $100 and it is great for managing your food.
      vacuum sealed pork loin
    • I always double seal each end of the bag just to make sure we get no leaks.
      double seal bag
    • Now it is time for the bath preheat sous-vide bath to 137 degrees Fahrenheit put the pork loin into the bath and then cook pork loin for four hours.
      put into sous vide bath
    • Remove loin from the cooking bag and pat dry the loin with paper towels.
      pat dry pork loin
    • Preheat your smoker or barbecue grill to 275 degrees Fahrenheit if you’re using a grill please set up for indirect cooking. Smoke the pork loin for one and a half hours.
      put pork loin into smoker
    • The outcome of this type of cooking gives you the best of both worlds. The meat will be extremely tender and moist. Also, the smoker will add just the right amount of bark, texture, and color.

    Sous Vide BBQ Country Style Ribs – Keto – LCHF

    sous vide country ribs

    Sous vide actually means in French “under vacuum”. The French developed this cooking technique to put food in a plastic bag, remove the air and then put the bag in a hot water bath for a long time. This is the ultimate low and slow and makes a pit master cooking at 225F for 6 hours look like a short order cook. To give you an idea of how long sous vide takes. To cook a steak medium it is at least an hour, Chicken thighs take at least two hours to cook. A Brisket up to 48 hours. Yes, two full days.

    Preparation

    • Lay out a couple of paper towels then place country style ribs on top with plenty of space between. Now season with Montreal Steak Seasoning. Be generous and season both sides of these ribs (actually steaks). Next season the steaks with green chile if you like the flavor of New Mexico green chile like I do.
      season country ribs
    • Put 3 season ribs into a vacuum seal bag and using vacuum sealer remove air and seal. Do that two more time until all 9 ribs are bagged and ready for the sous vide bath.

    • Now put country style ribs into sous vide bath for 8 hours with the temperature set for 140F.

    • After the 8 hours remove the ribs from the sous vide cooking bags but be sure to retain all the juices. These juices will be used to make out basting sauce.

    • Using paper towels make sure the ribs are completely dry. Try not to run the ribs or the seasoning is going to come off so just an easy pat is all you need.

    • With all the juices you kept from the cooking bags move to a mixing bowl. Add the Garlic Aioli sauce, Worcestershire sauce, and Olive Oil Mayo and mix well with a whisp.
      mix basting sauce
    • By the time you have the sauce ready the ribs will have been on the grill or smoker for about 15 minutes. Now bast the ribs with sauce making sure they are completely covered. When done let the ribs cook for another 15 minutes and then remove.

    • The ribs are now done and the fact that they really are a steak and not a rib it is best to eat them with a fork and knife.

    country ribs

    Every-time I make these ribs the family says why don’t you make this more often. Country style ribs are really not even ribs but are cut from the sirloin or rib end of the pork loin. The meatiest variety of ribs, country-style ribs are sold either as “slabs” or in individual servings. These pork ribs are perfect for those who want to use a knife and fork.
