stupid rib question

I have always heard before you grill ribs you should cook them in the oven at 300 for an hr or two and then grill them for fall off the bone juicy ribs

First of all, if the meat is falling off the bone then the ribs are overcooked. Second of all, while there are different techniques of preparing ribs (e.g. foil, mop, etc.) none of them that are worth their salt actually include the use of an oven.

I've done both - low and slow with lots of smoke & low and slow braised in beer in the oven then finished off on the grill. The latter was a tad too mushy for me since I was able to obtain juicy tender from going low and slow.

 

It takes longer but it's worth it. You just can't substitute that smokey flavor.

What is the proper temperature at which to boil ribs?

 

Your obvious attempt to bring forth an angry response almost was successful.

This is, uh, not good.

 

Interesting, because you have tried it? Cause I think they are awesome. Not claiming to be an expert, just offering a suggestion. But hey are DELICIOUS!

 

With all due respect, I have to imagine you have never actually had really good smoked ribs.

Usually about 350 degrees. This is a popular technique for people who want to cheat a bit before putting their ribs on the smoker. Kind of like kids who wear platform shoes to the amusement park so they are tall enough to ride the adult rides.

If you are "grilling" ribs this is an acceptable technique. Though I would probably grill them first, using hickory or cherry wood as your fuel, then wrap them in foil and throw them in the oven. This is ok if you don't want the trouble of smoking all day.

 

For me personally, the methodology and process of smoking ribs is as important as the finished product itself. Smoking meat incorporates not only flavor but the subliminal benefit as well.

 

The important thing to remember, class, is that at the end of the day we are all eating ribs.

while i know you were joking..... simmer is better than a boil.

i wouldn't say "should." boil and bake is an effective method when you have less time.

sorry... i have to disagree. i posted a quick method for sky several years back. it is very good. i believe several people have tried it and confirmed.

 

if time is not an issue, i prefer smoked, but there are other ways to make ribs taste good.

I'm a traditionalist. Much like CD says, the process is as important as the finished product. I won't take on a batch of ribs if I can't do them low and slow. Also, I'm an elitist prick. I take pride in my smoker. :wacko:

i understand the rationale. there are people that don't have the equiptment or time for longer cooking. they should be aware of other (quicker) methods to cook ribs. trust me when i tell you that i respect the process of cooking (be it ribs, roast, saltimbocca, osso bucco, etc). i hoped this forum would help people evolve; be it expanding their palettes by trying new foods, attempting and mastering new ways to cook things at home, or just getting novell items into their consciousness. so why don't you just throw some peanut butter on your junk and see how your dog likes it!?

 

 

:D:D
