I didnt have much time so I did my first ribs turbo. Pulled off membrane, Dizzy dust with worchestershire sauce and evo, indirect on raised grill 350F 1h10, 20 more minutes with blue hog. Result: the best ribs I ever had. I am use to fall off the bone boiled ribs, and this is so much better.

    That seems fast, even for turbo ribs.

    Tried turbo ribs this weekend too. Mine were just ok. Even after going longer than the recommended time. They were a fairly meaty rack. Tasted great just don't like to work so hard getting the meat. Low and slow for me.

    Nice work (got to say work =)) ). I will never go back to L&S on ribs or butts.
    Salado TX & 30A  FL: Egg Family: 3 Large and a very well used Mini, added a Mini Max when they came out (I'm good for now). Plus a couple Pit Boss Pellet Smokers.

    One thought. I have started mixing 50/50 Blues Hog and Bone Sucking Sauce.

    How would you have done it Cowdogs? 

    I will try and get me some Bone sucking sauce to try Mickey. I am from Montreal though, have to import it. 

    Are there any great home made rib BBQ sauce recipe out there?

    +1 for the low&slow-much less effort, much more beer time and I like the texture much better-or I could just be old&slow:)
    Louisville; Rolling smoke in the neighbourhood. # 38 for the win.  Life is too short for light/lite beer!  Seems I'm livin in a transitional period.

    Like a lot of people here, I have discovered that a low and slow 225 dome is not the only way to get great BBQ (for my tastes).  I now pick a temp somewhere between 250 and 325.  I choose the temp unscientifically by what time I start, how much I am cooking, and when I want finish.
     
    Even though my cook temps may vary widely, the one thing that has not changed is how I decide to end the cook.  Even at 325 dome, I will cook ribs until the meat pulls back on the bone, and they pass the “bend test”.  For butts and brisket, I am looking for 195-205 internal temp, and meat that probes with little resistance.
     
    Any temp you choose within reason will work.  I like 300 myself.  But regardless of what you choose, it ain’t until it’s done.

    Right on Cowdogs. If I had time to leave them on I'm sure they would have been better. Even with the elevated temp. But at 1:40 minutes. No way for the rack I had. I was well above 1:40 minutes and still needed more time.

    I did turbo ribs sunday for lunch. It worked good for me. They weren't the most tender ribs I've made but had a great crust and good flavor. I did 350 dome with a few chunks of apple for 1hr 40min. Removed plate setter tossed a handful of cherry in coals, sauced ribs and gave them a few minutes to get sticky.
