    Try butter next time instead of parkay. I think you will find better flavor.

    I tried parkay because of several teams I was visiting with at the Jack this past weekend did them this way. They swore off butter for parkay. 4th and 16th at the Jack, I had to try it

    Hey Mike

    The chicken looks great. I know some use Parkay because it is vegetable oil and has a higher burning temperature then butter. I have seen Johnny Trigg use it on his ribs when he foils them and have been playing with that technique. HERE is one of my posts using the Parkay similar to the way he does. I think the squeezable Parkay is 60% vegetable oil.

    Have you tried butter? Last years kcbs team ofmyear uses it so does amtwoctime Jack winner and hhe American royal invite runner up this year. I was ranked nationally in the top 20 in August in chicken using butter. Just saying. You should compare the two and see if you notice a difference. Parkay is one molecule from plastic so we don't use much excerpt on ribs.

    Hi Buster

    I am a big fan of butter and will gladly try it. I am just learning baby back ribs and so far the Parkay has served me well. I am getting more comfortable with egging ribs and liking my results more and more. If you say butter is better I'm all for it. I normally would reach for the butter as I am of the camp that see's little or no health related difference. As for "Parkay is one molecule from plastic", I love the comparison but then, we live in a plastic society under a plastic government all payed for by . . . plastic! The stuff is hard to get away from. :lol:

    Thanks for the tip/advice Buster, I will defiantly give it a try.

    Blair
