Okay, Hond, now that you've made my mouth water, I may have to brave the elments and go to Famous Dave's and get me some babyback ribs since I've done all the cooking I'm going to do this holiday. I can only eat them every now and then but when I do, it's bababack pork all the way and Dave cooks them just right in my book. I get the hottest sauce they make, Devil's Spit.

Cover me, I'm going in.

Beef ribs hands down! The secret is slow, indirect heat. For four pounds of beef ribs plan on them cooking for 1hr. 30 min and turning them about every 20 minutes. Some prefer a dry rub, while others want a basting sauce. I prefer the wet product, so I baste every 20 minutes while turning and I place a small container of water near the ribs to add additional moisture while they cook.

If you find that beef ribs are tuff or stringy it's because they were not cooked long enough.

:smoking: Aaaaaah! Let's just say I won't be eating any more ribs for a long time to come after what I just did. :drool: :bedtime:
Bad Granny!

:thinker: :hello: The +1's mother sent back some eggplant and lasagna with him from NJ. Yum!!! I prefer pork ribs, dry ribs with just rub, not sauce. Love beef shortribs, though.

Memphis is the place for babybacks, and we have sampled there many times. +1 does a good job with them; she boils them for a while first, then slow on the BQ. We don't do it too often, but when we do, I want a whole lot of them with only BQ beans and a salad.

We got our hands on a TN BQ pork shoulder over the holidays. That was quite popular and good too.

All this talk made me drool, so while out running errands, we picked up some babybacks for dinner. However, I also love beef ribs done in the crockpot. The meat just falls off the bone. Yum.

Thanks for letting me not be the only one who did this, Morris. :LOL: I'm trying to leave my dead brother some but if he doesn't come down real soon, I'm going for round 2 and will try to hide the evidence. :drool: They were some kind of good!

Granny dead guys don't need much food. :D

Every time you type "dead brother" I really have to pause.
