Cedar Rapids-based BBQ competition team, BAMBQ, did a fantastic job teaching the 3-2-1 method for smokin' up pork ribs. The recipe is available at The Grill Works website. 

An impressive demonstration by Bryan Meyer and Michael Givens brought on a Q&A from inquisitive BBQ lovers attending. The final product was very tasty. Folks will now have some knowledge to take home and put to practice.

​While at The Grill Works, I bought a rub I never tried called Cimarron Doc's Sweet Rib Rub & Bar-B-Que Seasoning, and a bottle of Galena Canning Co. Hickory Apple BBQ Sauce. I love an apple BBQ sauce! Will be testing both soon.
