When I foil ribs, I tend to crimp the foil tightly to seal everything in.
I read an article on Serious Eats about Melissa Cookston's new book, and she gave a recipe and tips for ribs. For the foiling step, she says:
I guess that is consistent with the Franklin butcher paper wrap approach.
I never thought about HOW other folks wrap with foil. I assumed they crimped it tightly.
So, what is your preferred method and why?

Place the ribs meat side down directly into the sugar mix, then close the foil over the ribs, but don't crimp the edges; you want steam to escape.
