Baby Backs on Sale

Fortunate this week to have a package of rub dropped off for me by Primeggister1 - recommended to apply liberally to ribs. Marc also mentioned to me that baby backs were on sale at a local grocery store - so I ran out first chance and got a few racks.

Used Car Wash Mike's method - forgot to strip the membrane - DUH! Heated up the egg first thing this morning - put the ribs on before heading off for work.

Took about 6 1/2 hours to get nice and bendy - slathered with a sticky sauce made with honey, molasses, ketchup, garlic, dijon and vinegar.

    Great looking BB's. :P

    I guess this is the weekend for ribs because I've got one slab of spare to trim up for this evening.

  • Let me know what you think Kerry. The boys I cook with are really pumped about the new rub. I also did chicken thighs direct or a very low fire on an upper grate onmy XL and I just coated lighty with pure maple and a light dusting of rub again. Before taking off I dusted with fleur de sel (because it is a low salt frmula for ribs) and they were a hit. Cooking time 1.75 - 2 hours at 225-250 degrees. I got more packages being mailed out to my friends today.
  • Wish I had time to do ribs this weekend. Wouldn't worry about the membrane. Around here about half the folks believe in taking off and the other half advocate to leave on. You can do incredible ribs with or without IMHO.

    Marc, these were bar none, the best ribs I've ever made. We didn't get around to eating them yesterday, took them out of the fridge, slathered again with the same sauce but mixed with a bit of Arthur Bryant's Thick and Rich, and heated at about 225 for an hour or so while I went to pick up my dad for dinner.

    He left with a couple of meals worth.

    I'll try the chicken thighs next.
