Hey folks,
I posted this question in a dormant forum section, so I'm reposting here. I have a question about glazing ribs: most glaze recipes seem pretty good at adding shine (which is what I'm going for), but each has a large amount of sugar, honey, or other sweet ingrediants. I tend to put a layer of honey/brown sugar/etc... on the foil when I wrap my ribs at about the 2 hour mark and then let them cook in foil for about an hour. Do the folks that glaze their ribs skip the layer of sweetness when foiling? I like a bit of sweet rib flavor, but am worried about overkill if the glaze really adds a lot of taste rather than just shine. Thanks for your thoughts.
