Rib Experiment

[M D Baldwin]

Today I am doing 3 whole slabs of Baby Backs. Each one is a tad less than 2 lbs. I put Worchestershire on all 3 and on 2 of them my usual rub. The third I just put salt and pepper and wrapped it in plastic wrap. I plan to do all 3 w/ Hickory and Apple and sauce near the end. I will report on the results.

Did all 3 racks for about 4 1/2 hours. At about 3 1/2 hit all 3 w/ sauce and added a few more chips. I foiled them and later served them. The one w/o the rub was good, nice ring and flavor, but alas the ones w/ the rub were by far superior. The wife insists on rub for further ribs.

The rub is part of the art. Now you will have to try three rubs for your next exp. and report back!
