    Just cooked these ribs following your instructions. Salt and pepper first then rub, squish test for doneness, tight wrap with foil and back in smoke for 30 mins. Best ribs I ever made. Thanks Joe for the detailed instruction.

    Yup, agree 100%! Everyones got their own idea of what ribs should taste and feel like. The best is when people who boil their ribs says your plump juicy smoked ribs aren't soft enough. Lol!
    Thanks for the awesome video! I've learned more from you in the last couple months than the past 2 years on YT!!

    Your trips on feel and look are the most valuable part. Each individual can then cross reference those info their own individual pit and home in on their perfect rib that way. Thank you for teaching the understanding of the process. 🙏

    • @knoxavebbq

      Of course! That’s the point. Teach the basics before getting into different recipe testing. Appreciate you watching.

    • @Phloored
      @Phloored 2 роки тому

      I noticed you using the rib tips as a point of reference for testing the softness. We mostly purchase from cosco and Saint Louis ribs are the choice there. Without the tips for reference what would you feel for on this cut of rib? I will re examine my rib cooking technique with more on feel and look being the driving parameters for timing. Makes perfect sense. Splitting up some cherry wood and white oak for the stockpile.

      @@Phloored I would see how soft the rib meet is on the edges between the bones.
      this isn't my go to check. it's probably my 3rd or 4th check. i usually check for the rib tips, the floppiness of the rib, lightly pinching in between the bones, and then poking the sides where the bones are to see how much it's sliding. i don't want it to slide too much (might be over cooked) but a little bit of a lift can help indicate that the meat wont stick to the bone when you're eating it.

I'm gonna have to incorporate a couple of ur tips in my next rib cook. On a side note, do u run the smoker with a water pan or just use dry heat? Franklin swears by it, but im not seeing too much of a difference other than it absorbs some heat coming out the firebox...

    what weight are the ribs pre and post trim? Most vids I watch never mention the weight. In the UK we struggle to get the proper cuts and weights so would love to tell my butcher the rough weights of these racks. As always fantastic vids.

    • @knoxavebbq
      @knoxavebbq  2 роки тому

      When I order ribs, I usually ask for 3.5 and up (3.5lbs or bigger). Most small butcher shops might not do that for you, because the spare rib is close to the belly, and most butcher shops will scrape down the bones to get more meat for the pork belly.

    • @knoxavebbq

      Some places may use it for sausage. It is it a little annoying to make sure there isn't any bone or cartilage in the pieces, but i've done it at a few places. I usually just use to for other dishes, that aren't smoked. They're good for soups or braising.

      Not really. This method is basically used everywhere. Everyone might take it differently levels of tenderness and smokiness, but the biggest difference I would is the sauce that they decide to use. So I wouldn’t take it’s from one places. This my version after working at TB, truth and just talking bbq with a lot of other cooks I know.
