Smoked Ribs Competition - Should You Wrap Ribs? Wrapped Vs. Unwrapped Smoked Ribs - Pellet Grill
Вставка
- Опубліковано 3 жов 2024
- This video is a ribs cook competition to see which method works best. Should ribs be wrapped or should ribs be unwrapped?
These smoked baby back ribs will be in competition with each other in this experiment to see which slab of ribs wins. This video is being done on my Pellet Smoker / Grill but you can use many different grills for this cook. I also remade this video in a newer version here: • RIB WRAP TEST! Ribs Co...
Links to a couple product used in this video:
Disinfecting wipes will come in handy to clean up the prep area when making ribs. Here's what I use: www.amazon.com...

Recipe information:
Ingredients:
Ribs (OF COURSE LOL) Make sure you buy your favorite cut from a place you know them to be good quality. For this test I purchased the ribs from a store that I normally do NOT purchase ribs from and they didn't turn out as tender as they normally do when I get them from my normal place.
Your favorite Rub Rub. I used Famous Daves in this cook.
Garlic Salt (to taste)
Black Pepper (to taste)
I also used Legend Brand Chipotle Powder here but that is optional
Clean Water for spritz bottle
Apple Juice for spritz bottle and a small amount in the foil wrapped ribs
Brown sugar (to taste) for the foil wrapped ribs
Honey (to taste) for the foil wrapped ribs
Aluminum Foil to wrap ribs during cook
Paper towel for pealing membrane (or any other method you use)
Spritz bottle
Directions:
ALWAYS WASH YOUR HANDS WHEN PREPARING RAW MEAT!!! I washed my hands SEVERAL times during the making of this video.
I rinsed, patted dry, trimmed, seasoned and pealed the underside membrane off both racks. Smoke the ribs at 225 degrees Fahrenheit for 6 hours, sauce glaze the last hour. I pulled one rack after 4 hours and wrapped it in foil with apple juice, brown sugar and honey for one hour before unwrapping and glazing for the final hour. This was the big difference in the test.
I used Lumberjack MHC Blend for this cook.
Let me know what you think. My ribs didn't turn out as tender as normal but they tasted fantastic!

Nice job man. Here is a tip I found for cutting ribs on camera. Turn them over so you can see the bones. Have a good weekend brother.
+TheHollarBBQ Kevin that was the only thing I was nervous about man lol... I looked like an idiot but hey, it's reality television lol. Thanks for checking it out brother!!! I gotta go check out your latest tonight when I can sit down finally.
Happy New Year from EVERYDAY BBQ!
T5
also put some sauce on your cutting board before you flip them over to cut.
They looked good! I prefer them falling off the bone. I know a lot of people don’t, but my family does lol
Mid-South Flavor we kind of like them in between. As far as tenderness, these were not what they should have been. I actually made the mistake of buying these somewhere other than where I normally do. Usually if I do this method, they’re almost hard to handle tender. Thanks for watching! I really appreciate the encouragement and feedback!
Most people do... and I'm with ya. Tender is tender.
I wish there was a middle lol. Tender but not where you can’t even take them off the grill without destroying them lol. Thanks for watching!
Happy New Year from EVERYDAY BBQ!
Just letting you know I remade this video and did a much better job with this comparison. You can see it here: Ribs Experiment - Should You Wrap? Not Wrap? Foil? Paper? - Smoked Ribs Competition - Everyday BBQ ua-cam.com/video/IkEzi8Z3PH4/v-deo.html
You are a great instructor on how to cook ribs. Thank you.
I've watched Malcolm videos as well. He's very good to watch . He cooks his ribs meat side down when he wraps them. I tried it his way meat side down and they turned out great. I think it allows the meat to cook in the honey and brown sugar and parka butter and absorb more of the flavor. Great video.
Thanks, James! I actually really made this video also a few weeks ago. If you look in my videos list on my main page you will find it. In that video I added butcher paper as an experiment and I also use better controls. Plus, I edited it a lot better LOL
Great job. I'm old school I use charcoal and add wood chunks. My favorite is Old No 7 whiskey barrel wood chips. Also try adding smoked paprika or if you like spicy maybe a little crushed red pepper the same pepper you put on pasta. It is a game changer and totally awsome flavor. Not a lot just a little. I make em like that and if I don't have one while I'm cutting, I don't get any them babies are gone.
Thanks very much for watching, commenting and for the feedback 👍🏼🙏
Cleanest Silverback I've seen! Definitely not mine lol
BBQ pit master in the making right here
I think if you have the extra time, just cookin the ribs longer to 205 temp will make them tender.
The big pits around here (CT.)
don't wrap nutin!
Thankyou for your thoughts.
I agree with no wrap.
Before i had smokers, i rigged a rotisserie on my Weber gas grill.
After 4-5 hrs, the babybacks i did were perfect. Just sauced them the last hr.
Nicely done sir. I will suggest that rather than using a set time to cook the ribs, let the ribs tell you when they're ready. The unwrapped ribs didn't have the meat pulling away from the bones yet. I believe they were tasty but with a little longer cook time they would've been awesome. Thanks for taking the time to share your video.
Thank you very much for watching, Paul. I actually remade this video with better controls a few months later. Here’s a link to it Ribs Competition - Should You Wrap? Not Wrap? Foil? Paper? - Smoked Ribs Competition - Everyday BBQ Ribs Competition - Should You Wrap? Not Wrap? Foil? Paper? - Smoked Ribs Competition - Everyday BBQ ua-cam.com/video/IkEzi8Z3PH4/v-deo.html
Well done!! Great job
I have a strange family. Some like them falling off the bone some like them with a little tug. So I cook them both ways and every body gets what they want. But you can bet if they start running out everybody becomes less particular.
lol 😂 ain’t that the truth! I actually remade this video with much better controls. You can check it out here ua-cam.com/video/IkEzi8Z3PH4/v-deo.html

They looked great. I'll take one of each. I always wrap, but I'm tempted to try this myself.
+Lee Setzer Thanks for watching, Lee! I have to say that even though these didn't turn out as tender as usual, the unwrapped were really tasty and definitely had a much more pronounced smoke flavor.
Happy New Year from EVERYDAY BBQ!
Nice job

Chicago will always be a baby back town and a rib tip town, I miss the aquarium smokers....so rustic but very yummy. My favorite are spare ribs (especially St Louis cut) but the baby back I enjoy just little tougher not to dry out. Nice video
Thanks very much for watching and commenting 🙏
Very well done, and super helpful, thanks brother! Keep up the great work.
Thanks, Ed! I appreciate it very much! I actually remade this video recently. You can check it out here ua-cam.com/video/IkEzi8Z3PH4/v-deo.html
Those both came out great. I think it comes down to personal preference in regards to what is “too tender” nice job!
Thanks, Carlos! This was one of my first videos. I’ll redo this cook very soon! I hope you’ll subscribe and hang around for it. Thanks for watching and commenting! Means the world to me and my family!

Great job !
Those ribs look amazing. I am not a big fan of the 321 methond either. I usually do a 311 cook. When I wrap the ribs I put the honey and brown sugar on the foil and place the ribs meat side down. THANKS FOR SHARING. BBQ ON
Thanks, Brandon! I remade this video later on and corrected a few variables. You can check it out here: ua-cam.com/video/IkEzi8Z3PH4/v-deo.html
40 degrees in chicago today time to smoke I got 6 slabs on my silverback right now I'm not wrapping spritzing apple cider about every hour love your videos 👍👍
Edgar Feliciano Edgar, thanks so much brother! I appreciate your support sincerely. I too am gonna fire up my SB today! It’s a beautiful day in the neighborhood lol... relatively speaker for January that is 😂

Thanks for watching and commenting!
Hey. I was sent by Rus. I just subscribed. Nice channel. I will be binge watching with my hubby tonight. Happy Father's Day!!!😀😀😀👍👍
Thanks so much, Ms Kimlo! Welcome! This is an older video so you’ll eventually get to some of my newer stuff as you binge through lol. You’ll definitely notice a difference lol. I actually remade this particular video recently. It’s right here ua-cam.com/video/IkEzi8Z3PH4/v-deo.html
Great video bro ribs look amazing
Thanks, Edwin! I actually remade this video a few months after this one. I used much better controls and also edited a lot better lol. Check it out you’ll like it better ua-cam.com/video/IkEzi8Z3PH4/v-deo.html
Wrapping seems to kill the bark.
Indeed it does.
It’s so enjoyable to watch this video on smoking the ribs both ways. I don’t have outdoor cooking device and have been cooking my ribs in the oven. Can your smoker hold 3 slabs of ribs?
It can. You can make some good ribs in the oven too. Thank you very much for watching the video and commenting, Helen.
Mike, these look great! Like you, I like a little crust on them. Great co-host by the way! Nice job Leah!
Thanks so very much! I appreciate you watching and commenting and I’ll let little Lia know she had a comment also. She’ll be excited. 🙏🙏🙏
Keep it simple! What I’ve seen is so complicated.
My version is:
Dry rub. Let set over night. Grill and slow and low in oven all day. Add BBQ sauce one hour before serving.
I remade this video ua-cam.com/video/IkEzi8Z3PH4/v-deo.html
I dry rub my and let them set over night too
For reals, a lot of these videos are confusing. Especially for someone like me who never smoked! 😂
Love your method Mike! Very similar to they way I have done them for the past 20 years. Apple juice in the spray bottle included. You know what your doing alright! I am like you in that I vacillate back & forth between wrapped and unwrapped. It is very challenging these days to BBQ really tender & juicy baby backs. I more often wrap for that hour these days than not in pursuit of that end. But the problem is in the way pork is produced these days. It is bred too lean and whatever they are adding to their feed has totally ruined the texture of the meat! So I don't know if we will ever be able to smoke & BBQ these ribs up as amazing as we once could unless we raise our own hogs. I have been told to buy Heritage Pork if I can find it. But watching your method just blessed my heart because I can tell you are the real deal when it comes to fixin' up those ribs! I learned about you from watching Tango Joe's Breakfast Sandwich video. Great job my friend!
That made my day! Thank you so much for checking out the video and providing me with all that feedback I really do appreciate it! Welcome to the channel and thank you so much for your support. I promise I will continue to try and create good content and improve as I go!

Just pulled the trigger on the silverbac. Thanks for all your videos. They helped me alot in making my decision. Keep up the good work.
Awesome decision! You’ll love it. It’s hands down the best reasonably priced pellet grill on the market. The quality says it should be over $1k. You’ll see what I mean when it arrives. Congratulations! If you’ve got any questions just let me know.
Just ran across your channel. First thing I thought was SNL. Next thing I thought was "damn, better clean the drool off my keyboard." Fantastic video! Subscribed from Indy!
Thanks, Chris! I sincerely appreciate it! Thank you for watching and commenting!
Some ribs you buy come with a tenderizing solution which will affect the outcome. Some ribs don't have this. You have to be aware of what you are getting to judge the outcome.
Darrell Rains flavor was awesome on both, just not the tenderness. Looking forward to doing this again in a couple months. Thanks for watching and commenting!

Great video,gave me some things to think about...have had same problem with my ribs being over tender and falling apart trying to take them out of the smoker
Thanks for watching and commenting, Charles! I sincerely appreciate it and hope you’ll subscribe and hang around. I’m gonna redo this video very soon and make the test even better.

Never got a call in a competition with unwrapped ribs, many calls if I wrapped. No two racks of ribs are the same, you cannot follow a recipe 100%. 3-2-1 is an average. One rack might cook 2-2-1, another might work out at 3.5 -1- 30 min. During the wrap, you need to check them around the 45 minute mark and look for the pull back on the bone, then guesstimate the time left. It takes experience. The 3-2-1 can buy you time also. If you are behind, leave them wrapped longer. If they get done too quick, unwrap and just keep glazing every 20 - 30 minutes until turn in time.
Great job, I usually make one rack dry and one wrapped, and dry ones I don't put any sauce on
Andrey Chuprin Thanks for watching and commenting! Have an awesome weekend!
+Andrey Chuprin Ribs are good so many ways as long as they’re low n slow! Thanks for watching!

Awesome video! Literally, just bought a pellet smoker and wanted to see if wrapping vs unwrapping would work better. I have traditionaly done the 3-2-1 method with awesome results but you have changed my mind. Thanks for the awesome video! BTW, love famouse Dave's rib rub also!
Thanks so much man! This was one of my first videos and I wasn’t very good at editing, speaking or many other things. The ribs still turned out great but they should have been better had I bought them from my normal butcher. I’m gonna redo this SOON!! I hope you’ll subscribe and join me on this ride.

YOU MENTIONED A 1 TO 2 MIX ON THE APPLE JUICE. MENTIONED WILL DESCRIBE LATER. DID NOT SEE IT. SO IS IT 2 APPLE JUICE AND 1 WATER? PLEASE ANS ASAP. PLAN ON USING YOUR COOKING LESSON IN 1 WEEK. THANK YOU
Yes, 2 to 1 Apple juice to water. Thanks for watching and commenting!
Very good video. When I first learned the 3-2-1 method, I used it a bunch of times. And, while the meat was delicious, they were way too tender. While my family and friends in the backyard were raving about how good they were, I knew they weren't right. So, I fiddled around with the formula. I tried three-one-two, three-one and a half, one and a half, etc. I eventually settled on 4-1-1 and the ribs are great! So, yes I still wrap. But never more than an hour.
I knew i wasn’t alone! lol.. hey thanks for checking out the video, and especially for the nice comment! Greatly appreciated! Hoped you subscribed while you are here. Thanks!
I did! Looking forward to checking out your other videos.

Thank you for sharing. I also like to have to bite the meat off of ribs, I absolutely hate sucking the meat of the bones
Lol me too!

Hey Mike you might know this by now but turn your ribs over when you cut them so you can see where the bones are. Just a little tip for ya.
Yea lol this was one of my first videos so combine nerves with inexperience lol. I recently remade the video here: Ribs Experiment - Should You Wrap? Not Wrap? Foil? Paper? - Smoked Ribs Competition - Everyday BBQ ua-cam.com/video/IkEzi8Z3PH4/v-deo.html
Everyday BBQ I binge watched all your videos so I've probably seen this one before but don't remember watching it. Just keep them coming.

Everyday BBQ oh yeah I make sure I watch all your videos
Malcolm Reed!!!!!💪
Over the top for me. I just placed a 4 lb rack on a flat pan, 350, done when I'm hungry.
Ok. Thanks for watching
Good ribs are good ribs. No matter how they're cook. Just like bad ribs are bad....no matter how they're cook. I enjoy my way even though they turn out really rich. Good video enjoyed it =)

Thanks, thanks and thanks again! Lol 😂. I appreciate you watching and commenting!
Great video bro!!!!
Great video. Smoking some Sunday
Thanks for watching and commenting! I sincerely appreciate it! Cheers 🍻
Just found your channel. Great vid! Thank you for taking time to film it for us! Another Malcolm fan here, he is great! If I remember right, he runs his smoker at 235. His rubs, The BBQ Rub and Hot BBQ Rub, are really good on pork and poultry. Hot is better in my opinion. One thing I've learned over the years is that I can't go by a set of rules. One rack takes 30 min in foil, another takes an hour. I learned to go by feel...and sometimes do that wrong. lol They looked great to me. Send leftovers my way. :) Thanks again! God Bless
Thanks very much for all the kinds words and feedback! I actually remade this video a few months later and had a more consistent approach. You’ve got to see the results: ua-cam.com/video/IkEzi8Z3PH4/v-deo.html

Great video thanks
Something you may want to try. Flip the ribs over and cut from the back. No more hassling with cutting into the bone. Great job they looked yummy.
Thanks, Mark. This was one of my first videos lol. Didn’t know as much then about editing or proper cutting. Gonna be redoing this video soon only better! I hope you’ll subscribe and come along for the ride if you haven’t already!

I never ever smoked ribs but I will one day. And after watching this video, I think I’m gonna wrap them. 😂
I like to foil them for the last 2hrs .i use a Weber with indirect heat
Thanks, Rob. I actually remade this video and it turned out much better. Check it out if you’ve got time ua-cam.com/video/IkEzi8Z3PH4/v-deo.html

Hi there. We stumbled upon your page from a comment you left on Ballistic BBQ. Started watching some of your videos. Good stuff. Fun. UA-cam is our little hobby and we mess around with Vlogs and Cooking Videos also. Anyway, just saying hello and keep up the good work!!
Thanks sincerely for watching and commenting! I appreciate it very much! This UA-cam thing has been a blast.

Good job. Great video. Those look great, especially the wrapped ones.
Personally, I do the 3-2-1 method.
3 hrs heavy smoke with a ton of rub finished off with white sugar (trust me)
2 hrs wrapped tight. I use about 6oz of beer in the wrap.
1.5 hrs unwrapped with brown sugar and BBQ sauce.
I found that 1.5 hrs takes them to just between competition style and fall off the bone style.
225 degrees is perfect!
I don't spritz at all.
I have a masterbuilt electric smoker, love it.
Don Riedel thanks for watching and for the feedback! I’m gonna redo this test in a few weeks (waiting for warmer weather lol). I will definitely take your advice into account. The biggest problem I had here was I bought the ribs from a different store. Normally they are significantly better. Her thanks for stopping by man!
Everyday BBQ you're right. Its crazy how different stores will have different quality turnouts.
I'm doing a nice size pork loin tomorrow morning. Fingers crossed on how she turns out.
We get to smoke year round in South Carolina!!!!
Don Riedel you’re lucky lol! I’ve been freezing for months lol. I’m sure your cook will turn out. Sounds like you know your stuff!

Thanks very much 🙏. I appreciate you watching and commenting!
for me they look perfect ..just the way i like them ..and the rub mix big thumbs up ..i like that you dont drown them in sugar ,but add some heat ..and some sweet at the end ..but im not a grilla king ..but they did look good to eat
They were good but not perfect. I remade this video recently if you check my video list. The new video really shows the difference between wrapping methods and the ribs all turn out awesome! Cheers 🍻
Wow u are amazing keep up the good work

Thanks very much for watching and commenting, Steve! I sincerely appreciate it 🙏
Dude I'm not even like a minute into this and your cutie stole the show. Reminded me of my daughter when she was that age. She removed her pirate patch . At first I was like how sad she has 1 eye then bam! God bless the kids! I laughed so hard! So cool 😎
Lol thank you very much 🙏. She’s my pride and joy just like my other two children. They are my reason for everything. Thank you for your kind words, Fonzo! Cheers!
Very good Mike. A bit longer than usual, but I am all for that. You take things calmly - and explain how and why well. I like the mix of video and stills (including the humor hehe). The ribs looked really good too :) i usually wrap about an hour too.
Its really hard getting hold of short ribs here. They are normally full ribs. And almost no meat on the long boneend. So hard to fit the for grilling.
They started selling ribtips here though this summer - and i have made them a few times :). Thanks for sharing!
Lasse's Food and Barbecue Thanks, Lars!! I tried to compact the length but Ribs can be so complex that I didn't want to skip much. Thanks for watching!
Everyday BBQ got it. And do understand. Good you did not shorten it. I see nothing that is too long :)
+Lasse's Food and Barbecue Short ribs are available here but they're expensive! Haven't done them on the smoker yet. Will do in an upcoming episode. Filming a first time Brisket tomorrow! Should be fun!
Everyday BBQ Cool. I hope it turns out perfect. Here we are making chicken :) (and i will probably make my version of no bean chilli as well since i am stuck tending the fire anywayj
+Lasse's Food and Barbecue Chili sound great also. Can't wait to do some of that this fall when the weather starts to turn. I have my grandfathers secret recipe. It's really good.
Great looking ribs, nice job!
Thanks, Steve! This was one of my very first videos. I didn’t edit or host very well LOL. I also didn’t use very good controls for the experiment in this particular video. I did however remake this video much better right here so check it out ua-cam.com/video/IkEzi8Z3PH4/v-deo.html
Excellent job! My wife and I really enjoyed your video, and subscribed and look forward to more. Please, though, as folks with hearing issues, we had a very difficult time dealing with the tedium of that plinky plink background all the way through it that was like water dripping on a tin pan. Yikes. Its unnecessary to your great stuff. But, most importantly, God bless and keep cooking.
The background music? Lol... I’ve since done away with that. This was actually one of my first videos and I had little clue how to edit. I’m getting better and I appreciate you watching and for the feedback! Blessings!

You should hear some of my earlier videos, that sound like I'm in a cave. Those listeners should be decorated for valor.
Lol.
Just letting you know I remade this video and did a much better job with this comparison. You can see it here: Ribs Experiment - Should You Wrap? Not Wrap? Foil? Paper? - Smoked Ribs Competition - Everyday BBQ ua-cam.com/video/IkEzi8Z3PH4/v-deo.html
Nice video Brother, I'm in the no wrap camp myself. Oh and go Cowboys!
Thanks, Rooster! I really appreciate it, my friend!
Btw I remade this video and it’s MUCH better! Here it is Ribs Competition - Should You Wrap? Not Wrap? Foil? Paper? - Smoked Ribs Competition - Everyday BBQ ua-cam.com/video/IkEzi8Z3PH4/v-deo.html
Great looking ribs! I found your channel through ballistic bbq. I always wrap my ribs. I smoke them with beechwood (I like a really mild smoke flavor) for about 3 hours and then wrap them for 2 hours. I usually wrap them with beer but sometimes I use 1:1 apple cider vinegar and water. Then half an hour unwrapped with sauce. All at around 280-290 degrees. I used to wrap them longer but I´m like you. I don´t like them literally falling off the bone. Can´t even brush sauce onto them without them falling apart. Keep up the great videos!
Thanks so much, Bruce. Welcome to the channel! I’m gonna redo this experiment soon also. I didn’t nail it the way I’d hoped. I will next time though! Your technique sounds like a winner!

Oil, any oil is not a good choice for a binder as oils prevent seasonings and smoke from penetrating the meat. Personally I NEVER use anything for a binder as I've never found a need to use one. My homemade rubs have never had any problems sticking to any meats I smoke.
Ok
Awesome..!
Nice job brother cheers
in for the grill bbq Thanks for watching!!
Everyday BBQ no problem man I love the family vibe nice little cook on those ribs too I have to say the wrapped ones seem to be the best
+in for the grill bbq Thanks!!
Happy New Year from EVERYDAY BBQ!
Everyday BBQ thanks man happy New Year to you as well cheers brother
Very nice. The only issue I had was that the wrapped ribs had honey and brown sugar added, an unnecessary flavor boost that hurts a true side-by-side comparison.
I wanted to duplicate the cooking process is that we have here in my house. When I wrap those are the ingredients I wrap with, when I do not wrap obviously I cannot use those ingredients. Overall I would say that the experiment was a success but yes there are some changes I can make and I will be doing so in an upcoming redo of this video over the next month or two I hope you will subscribe and stay tuned for that.

Thanks. I watched and was impressed. 3-2-1 is too soft, as you found. 4-1-1 is much better.
Yes. That’s been my theory all along. Just wanted to prove it to the naysayers lol. If this doesn’t do it, nothing will.
Bear Down baby!!!🐻🐻🐻
This is our year!
love the shirt 🐻⬇️
great vid, funny childrens bedtime music for making smoked meat haha
Yea lol I was a bit new to editing back then lol. I’m better now and improving as I go. Check out my new Pit Barrel Cooker Ribs Video. Those were awesome!
Im smoking some ribs today as well, funny thing i came across your video Im going to do a wrapped and an unwrapped as well

Interesting way to cook ribs. I do it much simpler, boil the ribs 10 to 15 minutes. Outrage meat in The Philippines is very tough. The boiling helps cut down on the cooking fuel which is very expensive. Anyway, I really enjoyed your ideas. God bless you and God bless America.
Hey, Jim! Thanks for watching and commenting! I appreciate it!

what is your ratio of h2o to apple juice in your spritz. i'm replicating your experiment today. very helpful video. I'm subscribing.
sorry, i listened again. i went 50/50 on my spritz.
Lol awesome. I also remade this video a few months later and used better controls. You can see it here: ua-cam.com/video/IkEzi8Z3PH4/v-deo.html
@@EverydayBBQ i used your spritz for the 1st two applications. i just added two oz. of apple cider vinegar(saw it in another cabinet. lol.) have you used apple cider vinegar before?
Yes, it works well. Vinegar flavors pair well with pork. The best spritz to me is 1/3 pomegranate, 1/3 cranberry and 1/3 water. Best for bark.
@@EverydayBBQ dammit! i thought pomegranate would be too sweet. it was the first thing i saw in county market this morning while i perused for apple juice. ironically, i shopped for ribs today and grabbed the famous dave rub. when i got home the wife handed me a famous dave's rub that i had already purchased(lol). i sat down to watch this video, and there you are you using famous dave's. i guess great minds think alike. i'm wondering what your go to sauce is as you referenced that you weren't using it. my nephew bought me some scheel's sauce for Christmas that i'll be using. very thick and tangy. i have a spicy one that i haven't tried yet. go cubs!
Enjoyed your video and liked the looks of your smoker.
Danny Crane, Thanks! I’m very grateful that you stopped by and commented! I’m gonna redo this experiment in the next few weeks. Hope you subscribed so you can see it when it comes out. Thanks again!
I subscribed, thanks for the reminder.

Amen, brother, I never wrap. I don't know where people get the idea that good barbecue is supposed to, "fall off the bone", may as well boil your meat if you're going to steam it to mush in foil.
Thanks so much, Philip! In fact, I remade this video further proving the point. I also edited much better and had much better controls on the experiment. Here it is: ua-cam.com/video/IkEzi8Z3PH4/v-deo.html
I tried using foil you might as well boil them
Great job Mike, hi Leah, love the comparison :) Look forward to the next comparison

Nice meaty looking ribs and its always good to have a little helper lol. Love your videos subbed for more
Thanks so much. I sincerely appreciate it! Cheers 🍻.
I don't wrap as I like crust on my ribs. The textural difference adds to mouth feel much like a flakey pie crust and soft fruit core.
Yes, I prefer unwrapped also.
Looks good! I’m on it for Thanksgiving!
Dean Dobbs Thanks for stopping in! I appreciate your support!

I had a rack of baby back ribs in the fridge to cook and came across your video. I got interested when you mentioned using Famous Dave’s rib rub as I have a bottle of it on hand. The combo of that, the black pepper, garlic salt and chipotle powder is a winner! I find the Famous Dave’s by itself is really salty. Similar experience? Thanks for the video.
It's all personal preference really... I tend to like salty rubs but some folks don't.
