Ribs and a Roast

[Big George's BBQ]

On Sunday I smked 3 Baby Backs and a 5 to 6 pound eye roast. I used the Basic Barbecue Rub and Sauce and for the roast a Java Rub from Steve Raichlen's book How to Grill. I prepared the rubs and sauce Sat. night, and put the rubs on the meat. I used Whicked Good Charcoal and Pecan wood chunks. The meat was put on the grill around 2:45PM. I did a fairly good job of maintaining a 225 degree temp. The weather was good for Jan., Unfortuneately my back yard does not drain well and it was like a swamp. Dinner was supposed to be at 6PM but my son was 1/2 hour late. It was a good thing the outside temp. started to drop as did the temp. of my grill as I was able to keep the food warm on it. The sauce had a bit of heat. The food turned out great. My family used the term awsome to describe it. I also made bake beans- recipe from the same book and smoked them for 2 hours before I put the meat on. They too were really good. I thought the charcoal was relatively easy to use and made little mess. the pecan gave it a great taste. I think I want to try a Boston Butt to make pulled pork next. Unfortuneately my work times are going to get a bit bizzare and I will start my 3rd job for the next 4 months. I will only have Sun. to Q.
