Some help on my baby backs please?

I have 8-10 lbs of baby backs to go on the egg tomorrow that I plan to take on vacation next weekend. I'm curious about two things:[p]1) I usually put a little sauce on the ribs for the last 15-20 minutes on the egg. Since these won't be eaten immediately and will be doing some travelling in a cooler next Saturday, should I wait and sauce the ribs before I serve them next week? The egg will regrettably not make the trip so I'd have to do this in an oven, and I'm not sure if the oven will be big enough or properly equipped to handle it. Should I sauce them tomorrow just to be done with it? If I do sauce them, how should I wrap and store them over the next week?[p]2) Anything I should remember as I freeze them (and perhaps a stupid question, should I freeze them?)?[p]Thanks in advance, as my long-suffering wife and my in-laws (nice people) will appreciate it. And I will too, of course.[p]Fitz

    GaWahoo,
    Now is the time to invest in a Food Saver! Vacuum pack the little devils freeze them if you feel you must and when it's time to eat keep them in the food Saver and toss them in boiling water for a few minutes. Best I can offer at the moment.

    GaWahoo, Holding on to those for a weeks seems extreme. Vac seal and freeze no sauce, defrost and grill and sauce them the eating day.

    GaWahoo,
    I would wrap them in saran type film,freeze them, and sauce them when you heat them up. Cut them in half if you need to to get them in the oven at heatup.
