Ribs Wet or Dry?

[Cleophus James]

How do you prefer them.

[A.J.]

I've never even seen a dry rib before.

[Freakshow]

I've never even seen a dry rib before.

Go to Red Hot and Blue. It's Memphis style, so they have dry ribs, I think you can mix and match. Also get the banana pudding and the grandma's potato salad.

[reillyluck]

I like them with bbq sauce.

[cupcakelove]

Why would you want a dry rib?

[Cleophus James]

I like them with bbq sauce.
Before or after there cooked?

[reillyluck]

is it like just seasoning is dry and sauces are wet? Im a yankee. i dont understand this shit!!! LOL

[reillyluck]

Before or after there cooked?

while its cooking. its brushed on while its on the grill.

[IMSlacker]

Dry ribs are great. That's what they serve at Rendezvous in Memphis. You can mail order them here (http://www.hogsfly.com/) if you're interested in trying them.

[Cleophus James]

Why would you want a dry rib?
OK to specify
Dry- ribs prepared with no sauce, rubbed with a seasoning mix prior to cooking.
Wet- prepared with sauce before cooking is finished.

Dry does not mean dried out.

[Cleophus James]

while its cooking. its brushed on while its on the grill.
So Reilly is wet!

[Freakshow]

Traditionally Memphis Style ribs are smoked "dry", meaning that only a dry rub is applied. If a sauce is present it is served on the side at the table to be added or not by the lucky person with a full plate of ribs in front of them.
Memphis dry ribs are smoked much the way other barbecue pork ribs are prepared. However in Memphis the quality of the ribs and the flavor of the meat are much more important than any sauce or seasoning. This is an old tradition that dates back to the early days of barbecue when a barbecue shack really was a shack.

I like red, hot and blue. It's a chain, but they have pretty good ribs, and I think the one in VA has a pool table.

Most true BBQ'ers say that you have to have your ribs dry. And usually that means a dry rub before it's cooked, and they sprinkle some dry rub on it after it's cooked. Even on pulled pork, alot of people think it's sacriledge to put sauce on a pulled pork sandwich.

I like it both ways, but in long island I think we put sauce on everything. All meals are served with honey mustard and ketchup.

When I was in the service, i was stationed for a short time in Key west...they like their ribs dry....it was ok......then I was stationed in San Diego and they did it wet.....loved it!!!!!

Also--bacon tastes good. Pork chops taste good...

[crb1]

I had to go with dry, only because I've had several experiences where people used a lot of sauce to cover up poor quality BBQ.

I'm into the wet ribs. If anybodys looking for an idea, do the ribs in a crock pot. Set it up when you do your morning coffee and come home to dinner. The meat will just fall off the bone, and it's less work.

I started a thread just about one trip to Red Hot and Blue, once. They were AWEFUL!!!! And they were beef, too. Who the fuck eats beef ribs? Maybe I just went there on a bad day.

BTW... I can't choose. I usually like wet, but I can't turn down a rib (as long as it's pork).

That's all they eat down here in Texas. Barbarians!

i think wet ribs are just a way to cover up for poor ribs. you dion't take a nice juicy steak and douse it in sauce. if ya want some on the side, great, but let's not get crazy here.

we think alike my friend.

A good piece of steak made rare/medium rare has enough of its juices to make a sauce itself. Its the only proper way to eat a good piece of meat.

My father cringes whenever my mom puts steak sauce on her steak. He hates to see anyone do that and I have to agree with him there.

[Turtle]

cook 'em with a dry rub, if you want to add bbq sauce afer they are done than thats up to you. but don't try and cover up dry meat by covering it with sauce

[Hottub]

Somehow, I trust Turtle.

Iowa City, Ia

Ooohhhh!!

Anyway, there are some people who boil their ribs before grilling. I can't think of a better way to suck the flavor out.
I personally do a nice, simple dry rub. Cook them badboys over a whisper of a flame for hours. While periodically brushing with wet.

I'm starving....

Bingo.

Real falling off the bone ribs are best dry rub. The ones at Red Hot and Blue need sauce.

Sounds like a bad trip. I'm 99% percent sure their main menu has pork ribs. Plus their potato salad is so good, it's hard to eat any other after you've had it.

[hedges]

I think I had dry ribs once, as I can remember, at Tucumcari N.M., at a roadside stand. I'ts been about twenty years, the ribs were excellent, and they were dry (I'm not sure if they were beef or pork). The restaurant I work at now I don't think does anthing traditionally right, but the ribs remain delicious. It is ususally a buffet/grilling situation. They take baby-back ribs and boil them in water. When it comes time for the dinner, they dip the ribs in the sauce (usually a mixture of Cattleman's and some custom blend ) and grill it. This is definitely wet-style, but from what I know, not real slow-cooking. The ribs are good, but I want the real thing.

[yeti]

Wet and sloppy, but I would like to try them dry.

Do they still offer all you can eat baby back ribs?

No one has mentioned there are 2 types of ribs, pork and beef.

I love my baby back ribs cooked with a bbq sauce. they melt in your mouth, moist, just tasty. I have tried dry rub ribs before and never like them. Every now and then I give them a try and always disppointed. They are always "Dry" and its not just the outside. They are tough and hard to chew. They a tough like a spare rib.

What other good rib places are there in NJ? I know Famous Daves is a chain, they are decent nothing great. Tiffanys are really good, but what other places have really good wet babay back ribs?

[tupper65]

Big Ed's Ribs are great, but we haven't been there in a while. The last time we went, we sat near the kitchen and the cook (I think it was Ed) came out all sweaty with blood all over his apron. My wife almost threw up and we haven't been there since.
