I finally ventured into the realm of Baby Back Ribs on the Egg. I used a combination of techniques I found on the forum...and the result was the best tasting, most tender ribs I have ever tasted! I am not the greatest cook, so if I can do it anyone can.

I used Sticky Fingers and Todd's Dirt rubs mixed. I let rest in the refrigerator for an hour and cooked for 4.5 hours at 225 degrees, basting every hour with apple juice! Amazing!

    The greatest barrier against all wisdom, the stronghold against knowledge itself, is the single thought, in ones mind, that they already have it all figured out.

    I found some sauce near me, But I haven't seen any rub except in the restaurants.

    I might take you up on that...I've still got some rub left from my last visit.

    We are going on a cruise in February, so I'll stop by Sticky Fingers and Sweet P's on my way to/from Florida.

    Thanks,

    Donnie

    Donnie, head up to Cincy. Near my house is Jungle Jim's and they carry every Sticky Finger sauce there is.  They have a wonderful rub and sauce department.  Next time I'm there I'll check to see if they have the rub.
