Rib practice

Rib practice

I like them falling off the bone, I don't care how ribs are judged "professionally", I go with what tastes best.

The taste is the same whether it stays on the bone tender or falls off overdone. It is the texture (mushy) and "eatabilty" (it's a rib after all not a roast eaten with a fork ) that is different.

That being said, and I have said this many times on here before, I would never turn down a rib where it was falling off the bone either..

Mine usually fall off the bone but aren't mushy, just the way I like em. Much easier for a midnight rib sammich that way!

Trimming some of the fat on top might help you on appearance. You can get more of the mohagany color we all go for...and remember in ICBA and LSBS the judges can't pick the rib up. They use a plastic fork and knife. It is better to be on the more done side than under done.
