Cooking Ribs

[Big Flounder]

Oh yeah! That sweet baby rays will have you licking your fingers the rest of the day! I went to talladega last year and they had a baby rays booth set up and they gave us cases of that stuff!

Yep, all I've used is some Sweet Baby Ray's. By far the best out there IMO.

Luds or Sweet Rays, who's is better??

Do y'all think it makes a big difference that type of ribs are being used?

Alabama ribs is how I cook them.. Boil in coke for 45 min finish on the pit.

I've never tried Luds but I would like to. I just buy what ever pork ribs they have on sale at Winn Dixie.

They are both good but Rays is a barbecue sauce where Luds is a marinade/basting sauce. Just depends on what your craving that day.

Here's my $.02. I like St. Louis style ribs but any kind will do really. Cheaper than baby backs but just as good.

I rub ribs generously with Slap Ya Mama seasoning and a little brown sugar. I get my fire on the pit going on one side. Put ribs over coals and get a good sear. Trick is not to have fire too close to ribs nor too hot. I wait about 20 mins from time my fire burns out and the coals turn gray. Turn them every 5 minutes to keep 'em from charring. Total time over coals is 30 mins. Move ribs to the other side of pit and cook them for another 30 mins. Bast lightly with your favorite BBQ sauce. Take off pit and put them in a double layer of heavy duty alum foil. Prior to closing foil, cover both sides in Sweet Baby Rays original sauce. Add onion slices if you want. Cook for 1.5 - 2 hours at 300. Fall off the bone tender.

**For a different taste go get some Zeas Thai sauce and use that instead of BBQ sauce. Knock your socks off.

Already planning to cook 2 racks wednesday. You can also use this same technique for chicken, pork steaks, etc.
