    Wow that's a lot of information, it'll probably take me at least a day to go through it all. :)

    Just to let everyone know, the ribs were definitely not undercooked, just kind of tough. The 1 thing I'm noticing most is that I shouldn't boil them, which really surprised me because every cookbook I have, whether it's for ribs in the oven or on the grill says ALWAYS boil them 1st.

    Thanks for telling me about the memmbrane. I've been doing ribs for years & I'd never even HEARD of doing that. Can't believe none of my old books never mentioned that.

    Some of you said try different woods. I live in Scottsdale & pretty much everyone here has a grapefruit or orange tree in their back yards, so I thought I'd try what we have here locally.

    Thanks for the help everyone!

    I have a friend coming in next week from Philadelphia, & I can't wait to give the pork ribs another shot while he's here.
