Baby Backs meet Yellow Mustard

ravnhaus

I cooked some baby backs and explored the cheap yellow mustard goop technique. The ribs were quite good although I am not convinced the mustard made a whole lot of difference in taste or moisture content.
However watching the mustard disappear was interesting.

ravnhaus, The idea of the mustard is to apply a 'thin' coating of mustard and a 'heavier' application of rub.
The end result will provide a 'crust' effect on the meat.
When I do this process, there is no visible sign of mustard after the rub is applied and prior to cooking....But hey, your ribs look awesome using your process.[p]Marv

ravnhaus,[p]this is your best work to date. [p]did you see a post by a guy calling himself rumrunner on that "other" board where he cuts up a spare rib, so that it looks like a baby back? I tried it and it saved me a few pennies[p]Might have to do spares this week and see if I catch the same magic.[p]CB

ravnhaus,[p]So how did the lemon go with the ribs? I've never tried that.. BTW that's a lot of mustard... I'm surprised the ribs weren't pickled...

ravnhaus,
I, too, want to know about the lemon in your scrumptious-looking photo! Have eaten a whole lot of ribs in my time but have never eaten them with lemon but after seeing your pic, I am thinking that it just might be awesome......I know a good hefty squirt of lemon in a freshly opened can of sardines elevates them to the gourmet level!

Scottie,
The wife uses lemon on everything. I just grabbed one for a little color on the plate. If she ate ribs she would use lemon on them.
