Ribs the way we like 'em

[ragweed]

The great thing about ribs is there's so many types and so many ways to fix them.  As for pork ribs, we like St. Louis style.  And we like Jan's rub.

Two racks, cut in half, coated with olive oil then rubbed generously with Jan's.


After an overnight in the frig, ziplocked, I pre-heat the OBS to 225 F.  I do three hours of Pecan smoke.  Then, wrap in foil with a little berry juice and cook for another 2 hours.  Then, FTC for about an hour.


So we like ours: 3-2-towel, NAKED!

Thanks for looking!

Looks great to me.  I too put sauce on the side for those that want it.......the ribs stay Naked.

Interesting - what kind of berry juice?

Sometimes I like mine naked and sometimes with a light sauce coating. When I sauce I prefer to dry the sauce a little under a broiler or on the grill. Do not really like wet sauces unless it is Sop n Sauce which is no longer available. :'(

Those are some good looking ribs, we like them nekkid down here also. Had some friends over for ribs years ago and one of the wives asked "where's the sauce", my wife said try one and if you still need sauce I'll go get some at the store, needless to say she didn't have to go to the store and we had no leftovers.

I did a rib smoke today, I skipped the wrap part and instead used a sealed dutch oven to finish. It worked fine but I overshot the cook and they were fall off the bone. Ended up more like pulled pork. Which was fine! I'd be happy with pudding consistency if they tasted right. Well, kind of. :)

Minute Maid mixed berry juice.  They sell it in six packs of 10 oz bottles.

Great looking ribs. I take mine normally with a little sauce but have been known to down my share dry as well.  ;D

Great looking ribs!  I did 5 racks last weekend.  2 baby's (pictured) and 3 spares in the wrapped still.  All with Jan's.  I finished with my glaze but also really enjoy dry as well.
