Especially good if you can place the pan of beans beneath the pork and let them catch the drippings. Or you could go Georgia style and serve up a Brunswick Stew instead of the beans. This basically a BBQ version of a kitchen sink stew that always goes over well. For pulled pork I figure 1/3 lb of meat for every person as a way to calculate how much you'll need. If you're doing ribs in addition, cut the pulled pork back to 1/4 lb per person. Plan on cutting the ribs into portions of two or three ribs and use them as an appetizer or side rather than a main dish. Then a couple of cold salads like potato or cole slaw and a dessert would round things out nicely. If you post up what type of grill you'll be using we may be able to fine tune woods, rubs and techniques. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two 5 lb pork loins or two 8 lb pork butts SHOULD cover the full crew but its always better to have more. If you run out of food or serve small portions, people will bitch. Remember, if you cook too much pulled pork, it freezes really well. Propane means that you'll have better temperature control, that's not a bad thing. What are you doing, two maybe three racks at a time? With baby backs you can get seven two rib portions (the last will have three) or five three rib portions out of it. That means that for 40 people you'll need eight racks of ribs. Using CD's foil method means a cooking time of 4 hours (quicker than mine), you'll do nothing but cook ribs all day. You'll either want to prep them ahead of time and use a chafing dish to warm them up or use an alternate cooking method or my favorite, convince the good woman that you need a big smoker.

nuke'em ttg Posted August 24, 2009 Author Share Posted August 24, 2009 Ribs sucked.....when i tried cuttin'em apart it was like cuttin through jelly plus they were burnt black and stuck to the foil on the bottom....don't know if it was just a really fatty slab or what but they went right in the garbage.....not even good enough ta throw in with the beans.....the Loin was great as usual better actually cause it was all white pork and none of the dark chit....Ribs and i just don't get along glad i practiced smokin'em on the grill now instead of later Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nuke'em ttg Posted August 24, 2009 Author Share Posted August 24, 2009 at what point in the cooking did they go downhill? they looked great on the grill but when i went ta cut'em the knife just slid all over the place and it was like spreadin jelly on bones Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bier Meister Posted August 24, 2009 Share Posted August 24, 2009 they looked great on the grill but when i went ta cut'em the knife just slid all over the place and it was like spreadin jelly on bones so, meat too tender? too tough? did you say over charred too?

nuke'em ttg Posted August 24, 2009 Author Share Posted August 24, 2009 so, meat too tender? too tough? did you say over charred too? i didn't see much meat at all just a bunch of slippery chit and ya where it met the foil it was charred...no more ribs case closed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bier Meister Posted August 24, 2009 Share Posted August 24, 2009 i didn't see much meat at all just a bunch of slippery chit and ya where it met the foil it was charred...no more ribs case closed i haven't seen anything like that. as far as the charring...... likely sauce went on and heat was too high (or meat wasn't monitored). i know KC, CD, and unta go longer with their sauce towards the end than i do, but i think they are using a lower heat than i am... i just use it as a quick glaze to finish over direct heat.

I don't sauce at all, but you're right about CD and unta. Nuke, do you know what temperature your grill was at for the cook? Did you use direct or indirect heat? Did you prep the ribs by pulling off the membrane on the bone side? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you use direct or indirect heat? Did you prep the ribs by pulling off the membrane on the bone side? not sure on temp.....the one on the grill doesn't work just had it on low as possible after a high start ta get the chips smokin direct heat ...2 burner tubes with metal "A" frames over them didn't pull off membrane only time i've had luck w/ ribs is boiling then finish off real quick on the grill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That means turning off one of the burners. It'll help keep the temperature lower as well. On the bone side of the ribs, there is a very thin membrane that should be pulled off. If there isn't a piece big enough to grab onto, use a screwdriver against the bone to get it started. Grab it with a paper towel, it's slippery stuff and you won't be able to grip with your fingers, and pull. It should come off in a sheet. I guess I should do up some ribs for the blog. I've been meaning to but I've got so many thing in the queue that I haven't gotten around to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
