The Great Yuma BBQ Rib Experiment

Quirt and Marilyn had a great idea to have a rib cook out.  The four of us discussed many possibilities at length, because isn't the anticipation a great part of any adventure?  We finally settled on pork ribs with a dry rub, seared on a hot grill and then finished with some custom BBQ sauce in a slow cooker.  And that is the precise experimental procedure that we used.  The experiment was classified as a tremendous success and I have heard rumors of a Grilled Salmon encore...

Steve photobombs the full beautiful pork rib slabs.  We cut them to slow cooker size.  They were also easier to handle on our small RV Weber Q grills.  Look at the Rosemary leaves on that meat!  These are no Baby Back Ribs, these are full size meaty pork ribs!
Quirt & Steve put a sear on the dry ribs with the Weber Q Grills.

Quirt has a nice sear pattern going on those beauties!

The cooker is loaded and ready to go.  4 hours on high please.
First slab on the cutting board!  Yipee!
Totally tender and meaty; Apparently cooked to perfection!
Quirt & Mailyn show the way on the first course.  bon appétit!
