My ribs need help. One batch I did, I used MM and sand. Also, used hickory, pecan and oak.
These ribs were a bit over smoked. Tough.
The last batch, I lit a full chimney of Kingsford and added a chimney on top. One chunk of apple, one of cherry. Sand. I let the fire burn for 30-35 minutes then assembled the smoker. Most all of the heavy smoke was gone. Averaged 235-260*. 3 hours naked, 2 hours foil and 1 hour to finnish. This batch was under smoked and tough. Used apple juice at 2hours,3,and after foil. The rubs were too light.
Ribs have a lot of surface area, is a standard start ( burning off heavy smoke ) better than a MM ?
I know I need more than 2 chunks-what is your favorite chunk and how many?
How do I solve the problem of the ribs being tough?
My wife complained about the glaze on the first batch and the lack of it on the second-answer is yes put a finnish sauce or glaze.
Does anyone marinate ribs? I have used Raichlen's apple juice and lemon with good result when I cooked on a gasser. Would the marinade help make the ribs less tough?
Last batch of ribs a 5 out of 10.
Thanks for the help!!!
