Thread: Rib Recipes....What's Yours?

I have tried several variations of cooking ribs.

This is for baby back ribs

I like them done kinda like yours LUVJIGN except:

I cut the rack into 3 pieces, makes it easier to handle after baking so they don't fall apart.

Coat them with the rub , wrap in foil, bake at 300 for 3 hours.

At this point they are well done, super juicy, and fine to eat as-is.

Or if you really wanna make em great, have your charcoal grill hot and ready when you take them out of the oven.

Remove the foil.

Sear them over the coals, put some sauce on em, sear the sauce good, and you're done

This is for baby back ribs

My other favorite way is to:

salt the ribs. No rub on them yet.

Sear both sides over the coals.

When they have just a little crisp on the outside,
not too much now,

move the ribs off the grill,

lay a sheet of foil, shiny side down,
over the hot part of the charcoal,

put the ribs back on top of the foil.

NOW put the rub on the ribs.

Cook until tender

This is the quickest method I have found from start to finish.
Total cooking time is around one hour, unless the ribs are really thick.

If you put the rub on at first it will burn.
Trust me. I have burned some.

These ribs are drier than my other post.
And they have a crispy texture on the outside.

Both ways are good and tender if cooked long enough.

This recipe is closer to what you get at Rendevous in Memphis.

All that I do is take and cover them with my rub..No wood in the smoker. A smoker that is seasoned right. Gives ribs and chicken all the taste they need.
And put them in the smoker for 5 hours. Turns out tender and juicy ..
Smoker is a SmokinTex.
