FTC RIBS?

Options
Planning on smoking some ribs to take to camp Friday. I will be cooking and then leaving. Probably 4-5 hours from finish time to eat time. If it were a butt or brisket I wouldn’t think twice. I’ve never held ribs that long?  Ok to do?  Only real way to heat back up is over the fire.

    I've held them that long before, no problem at all.

    Nothing wrong with a re heat over the fire though either... IMO

    I was originally going to cook this weekend then vacuum seal and freeze. Then let thaw and completely reheat over the fire. I just said the hell with it and took the day off to cook and travel.
