Good evening everyone, im Matt from Huddersfield, come here to ask the BBQ gurus for some help and guidance,
ive recently took advantage of the weber 57cm kettle offer from argos for half price so thought i would try my hand at indirect grilling, never done this type of cooking before so may need some questions answered if you would be so kind,
The kettle is ready to go, do i need to do a dry run on it before i try to cook anything?
Ive got some ribs from Costco and have got some Bad byrons butt rub and some killa bbq rub too, would these be a good choice to put on a rack of ribs? ive got 3 books by that steven Raichlen (sp) bloke and his rub recipes sound gorgeous but you need so many diff spices it would cost a fortune all in one go!
While the ribs are cooking indirect do i need to "mop" them or anything? and what do i use? ive seen people talk about apple juice but what does that do?
The kettle is just your basic bar b kettle model so comes with no temp gauge fitted, sounds a bit daft but can i just poke a temp gauge thru the top vent hole to give me a somewhere near there reading?
Sorry for all the questions but i need help lol and i totally blame all this on that man vs food program lol
Hope someone can shed some light
Matt
