Default Upside Down, or Right-Side Up? How Much Difference Does It Really Make?

I've posted a few times in the past regarding pork spareribs I've
smoked, usually w/ less than stellar results. Today, I smoked four
racks ($1.89 lb at Giant Eagle this week), and they actually came out
great- "falling off the bone" tender. I used Royal Oak lump and several
handfuls of Jack Daniel's wood chips made from their oak barrels used
to age their whiskey. The only problem was the BBQ sauce I made- the
wife likes it as sweet as possible, and I prefer it be not so sweet. It
was way too sweet for my tastes, but the wife loved it. The company
loved them as well- my cousin alone was good for about a rack and a
half himself! As for the ribs, I smoked them for 3 hours, then wrapped
them in foil for about 2&1/2 hours, and then took them out of the foil,
and cooked them for about 1/2 hour, during which time I applied the
sauce. I've never used this method before- I've always smoked them
directly on the grates w/o the foil. The other difference was how I put
them on the grates. Before, I always put them on the grates meat side
up. This time, both directly on the grates and in the foil, I put them
meat side down, except for the last 15-20 minutes, when I applied the
sauce. To what do you attribute the difference in quality (much better)
this time vs all the other times? Would you say it was the method I
smoked them, or the way I put them on the grates- meat side down this
time instead of meat side up?

Either way, it seems I've turned the corner in regards to smoking pork
spareribs- thanks in no small part to all the expertise that is
represented here!

Thanks once again for your help/suggestions!!

Jim

Tell truth? Not knowing the cooker you're using it's impossible to tell
isn't it?

Me, I did two full racks of spares (and two chix) today on the >offset<
bone down with no sauce (never while cookin', only as a side) and they
turned out great as usual. Tomorrow I'm bringing in a few ribs for a poor
Texan missing 'Q who endeared me knowing that sauce is for covering up
mistakes and believes that meat is best cooked dry, sauce served on the
side. He's getting extra knowin' that. :-)

Amen, bro'. Bone-down always in my offset.

:-)

So I've been experimenting with sauces, and I've homed-in on my
own style; a decent cheap Zin-reduction with just enough sugar and
wine vinegar to add pleasant tang. I tried using a decent cheap
Cab once and my 10-year old told me to use Zin the next time.

So here's a little confession; I got curious and picked up an
ECB at Wal-Mart. $60 for a Brinkman's Electric Smoker. First cook,
I bought a pack of baby backs at Costco, figuring I wouldn't screw
'em up ;-), gotta think positive. I cut an oak barrel stave into quarters,
wrapped three of them in foil, pricked them a bunch of times to make little
holes on top, and layed them in between the element.

I was quite surprised how well the ribs turned out. I mean, really quite
close to the results I get in the offset with lump. I can tell the difference
but it's pretty subtle. Next time I'll probably use 4 quarters of the stave.

For the first cook, I even put water in the pan, though I got a bag of lava
rock to put in the pan at some point.

It's always fun to experiment, and the results were great as usual. Heat,
smoke, meat and rub.

-Char Griller Super Pro w/ SFB. True- sauce can cover mistakes, but it
can enhance a well cooked rack o' ribs as well. Why else serve sauce on
the side? The ribs I cooked were really good today. The sauce, in my
opinion, degraded the quality. I'm not trying to start a debate on ribs
w/ sauce vs ribs w/o sauce- I'm just trying to figure out the best way
to smoke them. I recently saw a program on Food Network about 2
brothers- I think in Texas. Each had his own BBQ restaurant, within a
few miles of each other. Each one served ribs- one w/ sauce, and one
w/o, and each claimed that their ribs were the best. They both had
plenty of customers to back their claims. It truly is a matter of
preference!

Would you say it was the method I
smoked them, or the way I put them on the grates- meat side down this
time instead of meat side up?

It had nothing to do with meat side down. By wrapping them in foil, you
literally braised them instead of making barbecue out of your ribs.
Stay away from the foil, cook your ribs slow for 6 or 7 hours or until
done and see the difference. You basically made chain restaurant ribs.

Maybe he LIKES chain restaurant ribs. Seriously, I agree on not using foil;
4 hours or so at 250 or so on my smoker gets the job done nicely for me. No
sauce, unless someone asks for it. With beer on hand (or on tap), that's
all the saucing I need.

You know some regular restaurants like J Alexander's cook their ribs
with a cooker similar to a cookshack. Low and slow smoking.

Some people like smokey tender ribs to fall off the bone. So in that
case finishing with foil is the way to go. It just depends on the
people. Kinda like me overhearing someone order Prime Rib end cut- well
done, yuck.

There's a way to make google quote properly. Don't recall what it is

Or, you could just use Outlook Express with OE-QuoteFix:

http://home.in.tum.de/~jain/software/oe-quotefix/

Or, you could really go for broke and use Agent, which quotes
correctly, but costs $.

Of course, both options require a news server, which also usually
costs $$

I foiled some ribs just one time and I'll never do it again. Neither do I put any
sauce on them. I use my house rub the night before if I happen to think of it,
otherwise I apply the rub just before putting them in the pit. I cook at 250° to
275°F and it usually takes about 4 hours to get them where they'll crack when
I bend them. At that point they are almost, but not quite falling off the bones.
They are juicy and tender with all of their natural flavor intact. There's sauce
available on the table. Nobody ever uses it.

I saw that show. In that town anyway it's like pitting Ford agains Chevrolet
for brand loyalty. It can actually get bloody. I definitely wouldn't fit in. I
cook without sauce, but serve it on the table and I just switched from GMC
to Ford. (I can't pull houses anymore, but I can pass gas stations sometimes.)

Actually, he's the only one who spoke up, twit.

YOU are the only poster I've run across in my 6-plus years on Usenet
who can't manage to quote posts properly.

(of course, everyone else considers it polite to follow the
established conventions...)

Careful, Denny. Next thing you know, Dank here will be e-mailing your
boss to try to get you fired for posting to Usenet. He e-mailed my
boss with that intent.

Right, Dank?

I propose we deal with all the childish banter and "sand box" behavior the
way it would be dealt with in the real (off-line) world--by a cage match.
Let's get everyone together in a mutually-agreed upon central location, eat
some 'Q, then put all "the usual suspects" in the caged ring. Last one
standing gets to set the rules which determine posting method, off topic
versus on topic, quoting conventions, etc. We could even make it an annual
event, so that the challengers would have a chance to set the standards in
later years.

No use of folding chairs, no hidden foreign objects, no manager or
girlfriend participation. Gee, I'm smiling right now and I picture it in my
mind's eye...

All jokes and banter aside, I never figured out why your boss took
action on something like this. I thought that was a little rinkydink in
the first place.

He didn't take action. He said, "You have another stalker, and he's
e-mailing me to complain about you posting to Usenet. Be careful." End
of discussion.

You know, taking a Usenet squabble to real life that way is truly
reprehensible. But what makes it both reprehensible AND pathetic is
that Dank won't even admit what he did or otherwise take
responsibility for his actions. That's just sad and lame.

So you have nothing to hide. Not the same, evidently, with Swilson.

Odd part is that his banter might give others who dislike him (there
seem to be a few) the idea to actually email a complaint his boss, wife,
doctor, whoever.

Does Outlook Express pull info from Google groups? I didn't think
they allowed that. If they do now, very cool... if not OE will not
help them out in the least.

What do you mean by "Google Groups", do you mean only those groups that are
not true usenet groups? Google has allowed their users to create their own
groups that are not carried on usenet, so OE could not pull from those (and
they are very few), but as long as a NG is a "real" one, no problemo.

He's using Google's HTML interface to post and read a usenet group, much as
DejaNews allowed before them.

Ya, I meant the actual usenet, not the groups... just the web
interface at Google refers to it as Google groups. Since the OP was
talking about using the Google web interface to post here... I figured
it was assumed (but we all know what happens there).

Yep, now back to the 2nd poster comment to use Outlook Express... can
it be configured to download Usenet posts from the free service
provided by Google?

In the end, the gist of my comment was I don't believe you can
configure Outlook Express to pull from Google to download Usenet
groups. Therefore the solution provided by the 2nd poster would not
resolve the issue.

good hunting...

Are you implying that you intend to escalate your stalking, Dank? Just
let me know if that's what you mean. I assure you I'll respond
appropriately.

Why does my boss know your name, Dank? Why are you unwilling to take
responsility for your actions, Dank? Why aren't you man enough to
admit you e-mailed him to try to get me fired?

Give it up, Dank. You can repeat your big lie all you want, but not
even CAL believes that you didn't e-mail my boss, coward.
