This was fun.
“Across the Pond” British Pit Beans 🇬🇧

With inspiration from my friend , a special trip to the British Section at , a frozen Dino rib and some killer seasonings, these beans were next level!

UK Heinz baked beans, ground beef, bacon, onions, green peppers, smoked dino rib meat, BBQ sauce, A LOT of yellow mustard (because my wife said so), and a few seasonings:

Crushed Cherry Garlic BBQ Sauce
Yeti Garlic Butter
Stump’s Seasoning

Smoked on the at 180°F, then bumped to 250°F for another 45–60 minutes until thick and bubbling.

Do whatever you want, it’s impossible to screw up baked beans.

Part 6: Smoking Dino Ribs for an 8th Year Birthday Party

8 hours in at 250° on the Traeger Woodridge
Didn’t do any of the stuff Instagram tells you to:
NO SPRITZING
NO TEMPERATURE PROBES
NO WRAPPING
NO FOIL BOAT
NO SET TIME
NO SET TEMP
Go by FEEL!!!
The feel is PROBE TENDER
When your thermometer goes in like butter with no resistance in the thickest part, you are done.

I’m a believer in the “Easy Bake Oven” Pellet Grill/Smoker.
Got a full nights sleep while it cooked.
