I've never had this problem before... until yesterday. Mushy ribs. Flavor and tenderness were good, but the texture was pretty mushy.
What causes mushy ribs? Too tender?
I added the rub 30 minutes prior to smoking. Normal salt level - nothing too salty at all. The ribs were not "enhanced."
Smoked for 3.5-4 hours, foiled for 1.25 hours, then unfoiled and smoked for another hour or so.
They were tender, but a little mushy. Was it because they got too cozy in the foil? But I liked that they were pretty tender. However, should I pull from the foil earlier? or is there another cause of mushiness in ribs?
for some reason, I just can't get my ribs where I want them. Not that people don't say they are great, but I think they are just kissing up since they are getting free food...
