Ok. I have an oven and a gas grill. Anyone have tips on making great flavored tender pork or beef ribs?
-
boil before you BBQ huge difference
-
I would put them in the oven covered with foil for 2 hours slow at 250 and finish on you gas grill for a nice sire on high heat.
Off topic: just had the best steak in my live at Donovan's Steakhouse in San Diego. That was awesome!!!!!
Good luck and good eating on your ribs!!!
-
Get or make a good dry rub. Cover the ribs in it, wrap them in plastic wrap, and let em soak up the spices for at least a few hours. Then like Austrian said, in the oven for a couple hours at 250. In the last hour I smother with a couple layers of my favorite bbq sauce... YUM-O
-
Pressure cook them.
-
I cook mine on charcoal. I heap it on one side and the other I have a dish (usually a disposable bread pan, aluminium, filled with water. I wrap the baby backs in tinfoil so that its like a boat/bathtub. The whole premise is to keep the juices in. I season and do my rub/ "homemade honey", cue sauce etc. wrap them up tight and place them on the cool side of the cue (above the water). I throw in a handful of smoker chips. In about an hour I rotate (usually two sets of them) add smoker chips then cook for another hour. I obviously have the que dampered way down. The ribs boil in their own juices and the sauces etc. I have the most finicky eaters at my house and they are almost world famous, in their world anyway. Patience is the key. No peeking.

That sounds pretty amazing! Do the ribs pick up any of the smokiness though the tin foil?
-
the best way I have done pork ribs is to wrap in saran then wrap in foil and put em in the oven for 1.5 hours at 325 deg. Then grill em after that.
-
My Ribs are fairly tasty! So ai am told.
I peel off the membrane on the back of the rib racks.
Rub them down with my favorite spice rub.
Cover them on the meat side with brown sugar--- And I mean alot
cooke them on the smoker at about 275 for 3 hours
Wrap them in foil and add some que sauce for 2 hours
open them and put them back on unwrapped for last hour. Be careful because they will want to fall apart when you unwrap them.
Spray with applejiuce at every step.
Extra juice at wraping stage.
Give it a try
-
Thanks for all of the ideas. It sounds like my best option so far is some oven time then a quick final sear on the grill since I don't have a smoker.
-
Thats about my go to method. Dry rub and tightly covered in the over low and slow....let sit in their own juice, mix left over juice with bbq sauce, grill and slather...serve with slaw and a beer. Oh yeah....always pull off the membrane from the back side.

My way also. But I give both sides a mustard slaother before the brown sugar. Easy sugar on the bone side. Gives it nice bark. I have been in rib cooking competitions. a few coming up this spring and summer. Judges like a gentle tug for the meat to come off. They don't like baby food falling off the bone.

Nice thats a heap of meat right there :tup:
Since your useing an oven all I can add. Put your favorite rub on for 24 hrs if possible wrap in tin foil with 1/4 cup apple juice. Braise at 250 for about 2 to 2 1/2 hrs. Then throw on grill to tighten them up add sauce if you wish.

Subtle, just enough to enhance, not overwhelm.

In this case, its good to be a downwinder. :) Mouth watering.

boil before you BBQ huge difference
10000%, you can even cool them down after they are done boiling and put some good rub on them or a good push in spice and then BBQ, and i should say that SWEET BABY RAYS is about the best damn BBQ sauce there is, and after you put a ton of sauce on it and let it cool it will carmelize to the meat..... :EAT: :drool: damn i am hungry for some baby back ribs now.... :tup:

Spicy sweet baby rays....my go to "out of the bottle" sauce.

I have heard boil twice now. Are you talking about boiling in a pot of water :o or broiling in an oven :dunno:
-
I use a rub. this is for pork spare ribs. Pre-heat the oven to 450. Stick the ribs in for 30 minutes. Turn down the oven to 275 and add 3-4 cups of water, cover the pan with foil, and cook for another 2 hours. Uncover and add BBQ sauce a couple of times the last 1/2 hour. They will fall off the bone.
-
I wish I could have seen all these before I got a smoker. Hey electric smokers are pretty cheap. Did pork spare ribs Sunday. Dry rub then smoked with only and handfull of cherry chips, the wife doesn't like the smokey taste, for 6 hours, then tin foiled and sauced them up with Famous Dave's Sweet and Sassy, for one more hour. Very yummy.
-
I prefer the baby back rib packs sold by Costco. Coat them with Sweet Baby Rays barbeque sauce also sold at Costco. I slow and low cook/smoke them usually over 4-6 hours. It is a taste preference thing. I tried to heavily smoke them once and it had a strong acidic taste. Cooked them too fast and they are tough knaw off the bone ribs. I prefer mine a little drier but fall of the bone. I usually check them by pulling off an end rib. if it separates right off usually they are done. I would have to agree with the boiling first for thicker beef or country style ribs. I don't have the time and patients to fuss with long cooking. This a very simple yet good way for ribs.

THATS IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'VE HAD IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm making ribs and some fall apart flank steak this weekend.

nope boil them in a big pot right on top of the stove, you can boil them until they are right close to being done, and then carefully remove them cause at this point they will start falling off the bone, cool, spice with whatever you choose i like a push in spice and then off to the BBQ, and then of course the sauce, and you only gotta BBQ them long enough to give them the taste and color, its one of the best ways if you want tender meat, it also works great for chicken and pork

I was under the impression boiling takes the flavor of the meat out, and removes all the meat juices.
I have had "OK" ribs that were boiled, but never outstanding ribs full of meat flavor that were boiled.
If time is a concern wrap them up and put in the over for the first couple hours, then moved to the smoker or BBQ.
Something just can't be hurried, low slow is the way to go.
:twocents: no more no less, lol
-
Tagging this so I can find it later, I have never been able to get ribs to turn out edible. :(

I agree. Boiling, baking, gas grills, and anything that isn't a smoker doesn't result in as good of a finished product. Low heat and smoke are the only way to go. Dry rub, smoke for however long it takes for the meat to begin pulling away from the ends of the bones, and, if you must, add some sauce right at the end. I also remove the membrane from the ribs prior to smoking. Your time will vary depending on the ribs and how hot you are smoking them.
-
Many great ideas. The trick is low (temp), slow (hours) and moist (seal them up if not boiling). Select sauces to suit several tastes and you will be the hero.
-
The best ribs i have had wer cooked looow and slooow. my 2 favorites are in th ebig green egg at 180deg for 5 hours... Best damn elk ribs EVER! just dry rubbed and wrapped in tin foil. The other is Smokey Bens in Yates Center KS they smoke thier ribs for 6 hours at 180 deg. When you cook Looow and Slooow the catilidge turnes to jelliton and you can cut it with a fork! :drool: Damn i'm hungy now!

How about the McRib? I hear they are tender :chuckle:

ya except they a glued together pig guts and parts!

ten for Senior. that's why our and all competition barbq rib comps don't let you boil.
Why ruin the flavour unless you have false teeth.
-
We put on a dry rub and loosely wrap with foil. Then bake in the oven for 3 to 4 hours at 250-300. Only after that do they touch the grill and get the sauce. Boiling robs the meat of too much in the way of fat, oils, and flavor. Tastes like boiled sponge. I suppose if you just have to make them quickly then you do it, but I generally wont make ribs unless I can dedicate the proper time.
-
Tagging this so I can find it later, I have never been able to get ribs to turn out edible. :(
:yike: What have you been trying??
-
low slow is the way to go.
:yeah: The slowcooker on low for 24 hrs.
-
that's what I do with the boil method. boil till almost done, pull out rub them down and cover with what ever sauce you want to use add a little liquid smoke to your sauce, wrap tight in foil and cook in the bbq for an hour or so. make sure you go light with the liquid smoke.
-
never tried the slow cooker will have to try that.

:yeah: Much better done this way. If you think they loose flavor you're doing it wrong.
-
boiling them does not remove the taste what so ever, if it is then your doing something wrong, it also is a great way to remove some of the fat, yes i know, fat gives it some of the taste, well boiling only removes the unwanted fat, if you want a deeper smoke taste then dont boil as long and bbq it longer with some alder or whatever smoke you like the best, keep it off to the cool side of the bbq :tup: and another thing to remember, presentation and the look of the meat is important as well, it goes hand in hand with the taste
-
I agree with Alchase on this one... Boiled ribs just never seem to have the flavor that baked or smoked have :twocents: That's how my Dad cooks them, and they are alright, but I like mine better ;) lol
-

no they dont meet competition standards but if you dont have the time to cook all day then they get the job done :tup:
-
yeah! not a big fan of drowning meat, If ya want good product take the time and do it right. Low an slow is the way to go ;)

I'm with Iceman on this one. Pressure Cooker #1, Crockpot #2, Then oven or bbq #3.

Tip for cooking ribs for those who do not have a smoker but have a gas grill:
before I bought a smoker I used to cook ribs on my gas grill. It is similar to using a smoker, and will teach you alot. If you can cook ribs on a gas grill correctly, smoking them on a smoker will be second nature.
Just remember it is all about indirect heat, and "low and slow". I kept hearing that term "Low and slow" but never really understood it, I knew it worked, but why?
You want the fat on the outside as well as on the inside of the meat to render at a temperature between 130deg. to 165Deg. The tissue of the meat will start to break down at these temperatures rendering the fat inside, resulting in a tender moist rib. It takes several hours at 140Deg. to 165Deg. to render this fat in to the tissues of the meat and tenderize the tissue strands. Therefore the term "Low and slow".
To high of temp. and the fat (Moisture and flavor) boils out, and the tissue strands of the meat do not get a chance to tenderize, resulting in a tough chewy rib. To low of Temp. does not break down the fibres of the meat or render the fat, which results in toughness or being chewy.
When done correctly, the fat (Both inside and outside) will be rendered from the rib, leaving only the moist tender meaty parts!
I take the grills off of one side of the gas grill and place a metal pan 8" x 20" with holes (For grilling vegetables) directly on top of the burner. Place the wood chips (4-6 Chunks) to the outside of the pan on both sides and not directly over the flames of the burner. I usually soak my chips for an hour or so, I know , I know, some will say you don't want moisture from the wet chips dripping down on to your meat and "never soak" but I have never had this issue using a gas grill. (I do not soak when using an off-set smoker). Turn the gas burner on to the lowest setting close the lid and wait for about 1/2Hr. You want the internal temperature of the grill to stabilize between 190deg. to 210Deg.
note: You can adjust the heat several different ways. If you have air gaps in your gas grill as many of them do, use tin foil to cover them. Or i used a welding fire blanket. Remember that when the chips start to dry out and burn the temp. Will rise a little. this takes knowing your grill and knowing how many chips to place in and when to put in more chips, or to spray with a light mist.
A wet rub, dry rub, marinade is all about preference, my wife loves the BBQ sauce spooned on the ribs thick for about the last hour of cooking so the BBQ sauce is gooey and tangy. I am all about the flavor of the meat, and use BBQ sauce sparingly on the side for dipping. For this reason I always us a dry rub installed on the ribs, I can put her fluff stuff on later! Again, I like the flavor of the meat so I use a dry rub sparingly as not to cover up the flavor. this also helps to get a good smoke penetration in to the meat or "Smoke Ring".
Let the ribs set out and come to room temperature! this is for all meat cooking! Once at room temperature, place the ribs on the grill opposite side of the burner and wood chips. Thus the term "Indirect" Try to place the ribs as far from the flame as possible. From here it is a matter of time, patience and pampering. usually about 4-6Hrs. if heat is maintained inside of the grill at between 190Deg. and 210Deg. Switch the ribs around on the grill every so often if cooking several racks. Final internal Temp. of the ribs should be 165-190 depending on your doneness preference. Bone on the small end should be showing (Meat pulled back) about 1/2").
Check every 1/2Hr. or so to see if wood chips are needed or what the temp. is. Sometimes it is necessary to shut the burner off for a while or remove some chips if it is to hot, or the reverse if not hot enough.
Lastly and never skip this process! is to let the ribs "rest". I do this by wrapping the ribs in several layers of tinfoil, the wrapping again with a large towel. then placing the ribs in a small cooler for at least 1Hr. This allows the meat to relax and distributes the moisture evenly throughout the ribs. Remember the internal temperature of the ribs will rise 5-8Deg. when using this method, so adjust removal time as needed.
Re-cap:
- Internal Temp of grill 190Deg - 210Deg.
- Let meat get to room Temp. before placing on grill
- Indirect heat
- Time, patience, pampering
- Internal Temp. of meat 165Deg. - 190Deg.
- Cover, let rest 1Hr.
Enjoy! I guarantee these will be the best ribs you ever had!
-
Regardless of your process, the key to fall-off-the-bone tender ribs is 6 hours in the crock-pot. The first couple of batches I did, I gave them 3 hours in the crock-pot. They were TOUGH! 6 hours--Tender! So tender it's hard to get them out of the crock-pot without the meat falling off the bone! :drool: :tup:
-
Put dry rub on for 2 days, then put ribs in roaster pan and pour a dark beer in pan cover with foil at 250 for 40 mins. in oven, remove from oven and put on Weber briquette bbq.

Every time she biols them first...... I always say I would never boil a ribeye steak why do it to the ribs! :chuckle:

Nice post for the guys and gals with no smoker!
These have been posted before. To each there own of cooking. Like I mentioned earlier, competition ribs need to have a nice smoke ring and a gentle tug when they leave the bone.
I've seen guys smoke turkeys in used galv. garbage cans before! I tend to use different equipment.
Have a great weekend. I am!

I'm lazy. Pressure cooker on high for 15 minutes, then about 2 hours in the smoker/que.
There are MANY ways to make them, some take all day, some take 2 hours and 15 minutes. I have a friend who labors painstakingly over his ribs for hours and hours. His ribs are awesome, but no better than the ones I make in just over 2 hours. He even admitted it. He ENJOYS his process though, and will never do it any other way. I say try several of the awesome recipes here, and decide for yourself. Don't forget the mop sauce.

Even lazier just throw em in the crock pot smotherd in bq sauce and let cook on low for the day. the only way as far as i'm concerned. some of you guys and gals make it way too complicated :chuckle:

My Ribs are fairly tasty! So ai am told.
I peel off the membrane on the back of the rib racks.
Rub them down with my favorite spice rub.
Cover them on the meat side with brown sugar--- And I mean alot
cooke them on the smoker at about 275 for 3 hours
Wrap them in foil and add some que sauce for 2 hours
open them and put them back on unwrapped for last hour. Be careful because they will want to fall apart when you unwrap them.
Spray with applejiuce at every step.
Extra juice at wraping stage.
Give it a try
My way also. But I give both sides a mustard slaother before the brown sugar. Easy sugar on the bone side. Gives it nice bark. I have been in rib cooking competitions. a few coming up this spring and summer. Judges like a gentle tug for the meat to come off. They don't like baby food falling off the bone.
Giving this version a try tonight. The rack of ribs have been on the Traeger now for 4 hours. 2 more hours to go. Things smell damn good on the deck...

I have been in rib cooking competitions. a few coming up this spring and summer. Judges like a gentle tug for the meat to come off. They don't like baby food falling off the bone.
Giving this version a try tonight. The rack of ribs have been on the Traeger now for 4 hours. 2 more hours to go. Things smell damn good on the deck...
6 hours on the Traeger. They smell amazing. Time to eat. Pork Ribs...

3,2,1
3 hours of hickory smoke at 250
then make a foil pocket fill with apple juice, submerge ribs, back in the smoker for 2 hours.
then take them out of foil place back on the racks and smoke for another hour at 225 brushing on BBQ periodically
when they're done the bones will be sticking out like bear claws and the meat should come off the bone cleanly without falling off
I have done it this way both in a smoker and on BBQ just have to pay close attention to temp
