I dry rubbed these with my own Cajun spice mix and left them overnight . I slow cooked them on my Barbie using the indirect method on a soaked walnut plank , frequently dousing them with BBQ sauce slaked down with cola. ( used the last of my sauce so am doing another batch this afternoon) after four hours the results are a lovely dark sticky sauce and tender and very tasty beef ribs. On special offer here at the moment for 2.99 a kilo so I had to give them a try!! Photo will follow but please don,t expect one of Marcus,s amazing ones

Amazing beef ribs there! rg has the most amazing walnut planks, I love mine so much I daren't use them to cook on. Is a great way of cooking indirectly, it adds a wonderful smokey flavour without burning the food, try it, oak, walnut, beech and cedar are all good cheers marcus

Sorry for the 20 questions but how do you go about it? If this has been covered before could you link the thread. I have a raft load of cedar so I am game for a try. Got walnut as well but I am not sure about using it!!!! I am in my shed now and have just turned but not finished a cedar fruit bowl, the shed smells amazing. To use that with cooking could be very nice. Cheers Rich

What I'd do, is use a dry rub on the meat, then flame the outside of the meat directly over the flames on a BBQ, then pop a plank of soaked (12hrs+) wood on the BBQ followed by the meat. Pop the lid on the BBQ and cook on a low temp, (time depends on cut) A medium rare sirloin joint will take just over an hour, but beef ribs, will take 4 or 5. The bottom of the plank should char, creates a smoke, but can be reused. Enjoy! it's a great way of cooking! countrywoodsmoke.com/2012/03/01/oak-plank-roast-sirloin/cheers marcus

Thank you marcus for the info. I am going to have a go at this. I need to make a chimney cover and a front for my bbq but I wanted to do that anyway. This way of cooking will make me crack on with thoses jobs

Thanks Marcus!! My walnut planks are quite blackened with use and the flavour just gets more intense!!! Don,t worry about using it Marcus I can always give you another one. You can also use them in your oven my plank is actually just rough slabs cut in the round from our fallen tree. I will send you a photo. I use the wood chippings to smoke in the Barbie as well ( Richard has got into the habit of standing on a tarp when logging to catch every scrap)

Thanks for your help with this, I am 100% up for this. This is the piece of cedar that the bowl blank came from, I will chop out a chunk and keep you informed
