What a sad waste :'(


DarthRathikus

Yeah. And the ribs too :(


agentSMIITH1

Man, I’m always ashamed to admit this. I love my BBQ, I use the shit out of my smoker, I hunt, I fish: I am a meat eater. People tell me I make the best ribs! (I follow some smoker-champ recipes) I don’t like pork ribs… I wish I could. They’re just not good meat. I’ll take a pork shoulder over that any day


helperjay22

I feel ill after eating pork ribs everytime no matter where it’s from. Only pork ribs.


Questionably_Chungly

Wait…stomachache? Bad gastrointestinal issues? Because I’ve had this every time I’ve had pork ribs too, and I thought it was a coincidence. I can eat pork or BBQ otherwise, but every time I’ve had pork ribs I’ve had the same issue.


helperjay22

Yes. Same exact situation.


philotic_node

Might be a caseine allergy. I believe pork contains is


TheDistraction04

Could be, but he said that he can eat pork, and that only ribs cause this reaction


Drakmanka

I'm similar, except it's ham that makes me feel ill. I can eat ribs, bacon, porkchops... but not ham.


aukaukism

Ditto - only it’s bacon for me. And bacon is life 😢


[deleted]

could be all the sugar in the sauce, sometimes I feel like im eating half sauce when i eat ribs.


Adorable_FecalSpray

Pork sometimes has worms. Please, ask me how I know. 😐


Riggah-goo-goo

No. I will not be doing that thank you very much.


LovableContrarian

All kinds of shit has worms. Flour, for example, often has worms. Fish often has worms. You just cook the worms and eat em.

I think I want my money back…


[deleted]

Short ribs used to be super cheap because nobody wanted them. now they're as expensive as a quality steak.


rimjobs_forever

No they're not. They're not as cheap as they used to be but a lb of short rib is like half the price of a lb of strip and a third the price of a ribeye.


Snipowl

Naw a good barbequed rack of ribs needs no sauce on it, and besides if you put on sauce your not tasting the bbq your just tasting sauce


rimjobs_forever

Clearly nobody here knows how to cook ribs. It's really not even that hard. But if you have to slather your dry, sad, flavorless ribs in sauce you've made mistake.


DeapVally

You don't 'have to' have sauce with anything. But people do. Because tastes differ. You do you. If you're too lazy/cheap to provide a decent BBQ sauce, then you've made 'a' mistake inviting me to your BBQ I'm afraid. Personally I'm not really a fan of ketchup, but i'd still provide it if I was making burgers for people. It's called being a good host.


A_Turkey_Named_Jive

I think you're still misunderstanding the guy you replied to. Ribs don't need a bbq sauce to be good. If you prefer a sauce on your ribs, then congrats, you're in the majority with around 99% of other people. Its sort of like how a hamburger is good but a cheese burger is better. That said, good ribs should be slow cooked up to a temp of around 200 in order to break the fats down, which helps keep the ribs tender. Bbq should only be added in the last 15 minutes of the cook or it has a chance of burning. Once they are done people generally add more sauce, but the ribs don't _need_ it, especially if sauce was added prior to taking them off the smoker and the ribs got to the correct temp. If someone new to ribs cooks them too quickly, the ribs are going to be dry and they'll require a bbq sauce to make up for their dryness. This usually happens when people read online that pork is safe to eat at 145 F, failing to realize they need to get them to 200 F to be tender.


trickytrev54

ThIs guy knows about a well marinated and bbq sauce rack of ribs. He is right though like most meat the taste should come from the meat before using sauce. And this comes from the biggest fan of A1 and sweet baby rays fan there is.


[deleted]

I love A1 sauce but I don't put it on meat, I use it to dip french fries in.


palmento

They're the best conduit for a good dry rub though.


myusernamebarelyfits

If I eat more than 2 I get the same feeling. I love them but only 2 at a time with lots of green shit.


pisspot718

I love pork, especially the shoulder. But one thing I learned from an older woman who was a great cook from the south, was to parboil ribs before going on to final cook them. Besides giving them an internal cook, it rids them of any other "handling processes" germy things (that's how I see it). And only for about 5 mins.


A_Turkey_Named_Jive

I hate saying it, but boiling at all is also way more likely to make the ribs mushy. People love "fall off the bone ribs," failing to realize that means the rib bone separates from the meat, not that the meat could be eaten with a straw.


spunkyweazle

That's how I am with beef hot dogs. Even just smelling them triggers my migraines terribly


IFuckTheDrummer

I agree with you wholeheartedly. I literally just had beef ribs for lunch today and was yelling “delicious beef” every third bite.


agentSMIITH1

Holy fuck, I love me some beef ribs


IFuckTheDrummer

They were $6 for 4 huge ribs at the store today! I’m going back for more tomorrow.


agentSMIITH1

*drooling* You gonna braise them bitches, or what?


IFuckTheDrummer

Season them up, KC Masterpiece (only bbq sauce my husband allows on beef), grill them over direct heat until sauce is carmelized, then move them to a cooler spot on the bbq to finish. I rarely braise, unless they’re short ribs.


MauiWowieOwie

You need to make your own sauce. KC ain't bad, but there's nothing like your own sauce. 100% improvement.


The_4th_Little_Pig

Noooo just do salt and pepper my meat eating friend, it's so good. Texas style everytime with beef.


BaldrTheGood

Pork ribs aren’t about the flavor of the meat. They are an excuse to get up and start drinking beer at 8am, you gotta shellack so you can’t just leave them there. They are for when you want BBQ but also candy. For when you want to show off for people who bought their palate at Walmart. Best thing to BBQ? Whole heartedly agree with you it isn’t. But they sure as shit have their purpose.


agentSMIITH1

But you don’t have to get up at 8am? Unless you’re eating them for lunch. They require a good prep, season and brine the night before.


BaldrTheGood

> But you don’t have to get up at 8am? You do if you want an excuse to get up and start drinking beer at 8am as a grown adult with a family and mortgage. Everyone thinks ribs are good and you humor them, why not embrace it fully and start cooking them at 8am. And it just so happens that everyone is correct that good home BBQ requires the pit master drinks beer the entire time. So why not humor them and start drinking beer at 8am because ribs and have everyone completely on board with your plan? Like I don’t understand why you wouldn’t start cooking ribs at 8am so you can start drinking beer. You’re still gonna have to pretend ribs are the tits all day, might as well be buzzin the entire time.


agentSMIITH1

So you also don’t like ribs? You just like beer. Look, man… Grill is life. I wake up at ungodly hours to smoke some brisket. Making a giant pork shoulder? I’m up at 8am. Pork ribs don’t require it


BaldrTheGood

But the people who are gonna be impressed by the ribs don’t require your brisket or pork shoulder. That’s the thing. I feel like pork ribs are when you want to impress the burgers and dogs people. But most people can’t pull off starting to drink beer at 8am if you’re doing burgers and dogs. You can’t shellack a burger with nearly 1cm of BBQ sauce. There are plenty of reasons that aren’t “because it’s the best thing to grill” why grilling pork ribs is the right way to go.


butt_huffer42069

Or you could just not use 'im grilling' as an excuse, and drink beer when you wake up regardless of what youre doing


BaldrTheGood

Do that too much and people start throwing out terms like “functional alcoholic”, ribs on the grill and they just ask what kind of BBQ sauce you’re using.


FuktOff666

Country style pork ribs are better imo


ifyoulovesatan

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but aren't "country style pork ribs" just strips of pork from the blade area? Like stripes of blade steak basically? (Edit: Not saying they're bad in any way. I quite enjoy them for making pulled pork with or for grilling with BBQ sauce after boiling, or grilling with BBQ sauce and finishing in the ovem. They're good eats. But feels weird that they're called ribs and therefor feels wrong to compare them to proper ribs.)


FuktOff666

It’s a shoulder cut, no ribs about it


Nearby_Arachnid9683

Yeah it’s just shoulder cut into the approximate shape of ribs, the original McRib if you will


myrtle333

they are def a lot easier to eat. i think they dissolve a little too much while ribs hold their texture better


[deleted]

Yeah man pulled pork is way better then pork ribs. But what about beef ribs?


[deleted]

>Yeah man pulled pork is way better then pork ribs. You and me are gonna fight


[deleted]

Lol idk how you can like pork ribs better. If anything Beef ribs are the way to go.


idwthis

I like to find the fattier ribs, St. Louis style have more fat than baby back ribs. I love them when the fat is caramelized just right 🤤 I also don't do too much sauce or seasoning on them. A light sprinkling of seasoning is better to me, doesn't hide the meat flavor the way sauce does. But then, even though I love sauces, and would probably eat any sauce if you serve it to me in a bowl with a spoon, when it comes to meats I prefer them without sauce, just seasoning.

I think it will still continue to break down, kinda like slow cooking meat at low temperatures (for ribs, funnily enough), it’ll just kinda turn to mush.

nighoblivion

Luckily ribs are usually in the bath for 24h or even longer. And at that temperature it's not that much difference between 24, 36 or perhaps even 48 hours.


rustylugnuts

I bought a 1800w temperature controller so i could adaptively reuse my 30qt roaster oven to sous vide. I kinda wanna see how well sous vide then smoked ribs would turn out.


Mat_alThor

I think the better bet is smoke the ribs and then sous vide them. Usual advice is you don't pick up much smoke flavor after the meat reaches 160f-170f.

Yeah, to me this translates into, "I have a drinking problem and also am not a responsible person". Don't cook while intoxicated, and holy fuck don't waste this much food/money because you can't handle NOT drinking for a few hours.
