I need to slow roast 10 racks of ribs at a time | |
Anymous Cowboy (OP) User ID: 72130148 United States 02/10/2019 07:51 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I don't like it. See how much a Smokaroma pressure cooker/smoker costs. They'll do 45lbs at a time or 90lbs in their big one. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 77021014 Is this a one time deal, or do you plan to continue doing it? Try Oklahoma Joe's smokers [link to www.oklahomajoes.com (secure)] These look awesome, but not quite large enough. Thanks, though! Will pin you in hopes that BBQ Boy shows up. He will have good suggestions. Quoting: Lady Jane Smith Sweet, thanks a million! element.io/app --> @animus-eques:matrix.org |

Quoting: Feerlyss I know why not in bbq sauce but why not in foil for the last hour? Seems to make a difference in the moisture. Well my slurry keeps that moisture in for you that and maintaining the right temp. Amazing what 5 degrees difference can do to your meat. |

Is this a competition or are you just feeding a bunch of people? If you're just feeding, you could precook wrapped in foil in your oven, and possibly use a few neighbor's ovens. Finish off at the event with a few propane grills to caramelize sauce and reheat. I did this for a retirement party but instead of ribs, I cooked up 250+ bacon wrapped chicken legs. Huge success. |

Beer's in the fridge ;) Go get 2 cheap electric smokers for 250 each. You can use them to smoke or just maintain temps and it's 1/3 of what you're looking at. You can get them from amazon or some other chinaman. Quoting: rolltiderv2 I forgot to add that I need these suckers to roast "slowly" as quickly as possible. Thus the need for (ideally) a pressure oven. Ive been cooking professionally for 25 years, never heard of a "pressure oven". There are a couple good suggestions so far, I would go with one of them. For the love of god dont let your lamb cook for 4 hours. |
Anymous Cowboy (OP) User ID: 72130148 United States 02/10/2019 07:54 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | No doubt you will shell out money for a smoker that has enough space for 10 racks. That being said if you do have the ability to do this then it does not change the time. The most ribs I’ve cooked at 1 time was 37 racks in an Ole Hickory brand smoker. That’s a huge machine though. Quoting: Feerlyss This sounds like the exact thing I need. I can sell so many of these. Oh yes, they even has them on trailers!

Yes the smoke from the fat and the juice add to the flavor of the sauce. It makes a lot of sauce, try to render downs the apple juice n fat first thicken it up then the ketchup n honey to reduce a little more |

Just looking for cheaper solutions rather than making a large purchase for a smoker that you may never use again. A 10 rack capable smoker is fairly large to be sitting in your back yard for single family dinner use ;) |

For an event I’ve done baby back ribs in the oven first I use a broiler pan filled with beer, Honey Brown, cover it in foil with a few hole pokes and steam the ribs for a few hours You can keep them wrapped in foil until the party or in a huge tin container Then at the party BBQ them with the sauce Steaming them in beer gives them the best flavor. My sauce is usually big bottle of Sweet Baby Rays, butter, garlic, soy and brown sugar ~With forethought and malice Whitless enacted an EO giving nursing homes immunity from wrongful death prosecutions, forced them to take in infected patients and is responsible for over 6500+ nursing home deaths~ |
nacho daddy User ID: 74285733 United States 02/10/2019 08:07 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | You don't need a smoker...a regular oven will do. I assume you are talking about baby back ribs. Quoting: nacho daddy Yes... Remove silver skin from the inside of ribs before you do anything. Quoting: nacho daddy Place a rack of ribs in a double layer of aluminum foil face up. baste with Sweet Baby Ray BBQ sauce and add 1/2 cup chicken broth under the ribs. Wrap tightly and do the same for all ten racks. Put 1 oven rack 1 space above the center of the oven and the other oven rack one space below center. you need this space for air circulation. Heat oven to 300 degrees and put 5 wrapped packs of ribs on the top rack and 5 on the bottom rack. Bake for 1 hour then switch the top ribs to the bottom and vice versa. Bake another hour. After that hour unwrap ribs and expose the tops so that the bbq sauce can carmelize. Baste the ribs with bbq sauce every 15 minutes for one hour. They will be finished and ready to fall off the bone. That sounds soooo freaking awesome. I will have to run some tests. Q: Stacking the ribs 5 to a stack doesn't make the inner racks cook too slow? Q: Can I do this in a larger oven with like 4 or more 5-packs of ribs? Like a vertical commercial oven? Q: It seems that by far the hardest part for me will be the last hour of caramelizing. Is there a way to make that less attention-requiring? There is no stacking...you are laying the packets of ribs side by side. The reason for the bbq sauce is to infuse the ribs with flavor. The reason for the chicken broth is to keep the meat moisturized. The reason for sealing the foil is to keep moisture in and provide a slightly pressurized cooking environment. The reason you switch the top and bottom packets after an hour is to make sure they cook evenly. The reason you cook the last hour with tops open is to build up a caramelized topping on the ribs by basting every 15 minutes. The day the soldiers stop bringing you their problems is the day you stopped leading them. They have either lost confidence that you can help them or concluded that you do not care. Either case is a failure of leadership. |
