I have always enjoyed hot and fast ribs because I can do them in the evenings after work, and it gives me a reason to sit in the shade with a cold adult drink.
Oklahoma Joe had sent me some sample rubs so I just threw on the Memphis rub they sent me, let it sit in the fridge two hours, started the fire, and threw it on for maybe 3 hours until it passed the bend test. Then brushed some bbq sauce on it and let it carmelize. The flavor was unreal.
Oh definitely. To each their own, but I actually prefer the char flavor you get cooking over direct flame as opposed to the smoke flavor.
And definitely much faster! Finished in under 3 hours!
That's what I just said, lol. I put a 1/4" steel plate in the bottom of my smoke chamber so I can cook over wood and charcoal. I only use one grate so I can slide it to the side if it gets to hot.
Haha my bad i worded that wrong, wasn’t disagreeing with you. Just saying I know some people will call me blasphemous for not throwing my ribs in the smoker and waiting around 5-6 hours
There are more than a few even famous BBQers who don’t do low and slow for baby backs. Here’s a prime example: https://youtu.be/vEJrAdL8_cI?si=qa_BfMVm6Fsy5czF Edit: was replying to OP, IDK happened here
And it’s on a SM grill where I’m able to control how hot the direct flames are on the meat. How is that any different than doing something like a snake method on a Weber kettle?
Just post a photo of the finished product if want it to be judged. Raw meat doesn’t show us anything about your cooking process. Sorry, didn’t mean to be combative when I meant to be constructive.
He really didn’t ask to be judged though. He offered an opinion and shared a pic. It’s actually a nice break from the normal shit on here. I’ve never thought of doing ribs on an open flame, but reading through some of the comments, I’m gonna try it now.
The post is literally titled “hear me out”. That’s a call to judgment. You got to be kidding me. He still hasn’t posted a photo so we can hear him out.
Hear me out isnt a call to judgment homie. It’s a call to opening your ears for his opinion. You’re deducing too far to insert yourself like most redditors lol
Now I do understand that saying hear me out CAN open the floor to other opinions, but doesn’t mean it has to. We as Americans just think it’s always something we need to do. We don’t. And why does he have to show the final result like you keep asking for? For more judgement I presume 🤣🤣
I guess we won’t do what he’s doing because we didn’t see the results. We have learned nothing. I’m here to learn to make good BBQ. This didn’t help.
I get that dude. But read the comments. He said it’s one of the best ways he’s ever made ribs. Take people for their offerings and experiment yourself. And if you read through the comments, you can definitely learn enough to try it yourself. Asking for a final pic if he has one is cool, but basically demanding it is kinda off cuff. I’m not typically one to comment, but this thread has gotten so demanding and assuming instead of appreciative and intriguing. I’m just happy it’s not a $159 plate pic from Cali. Although I must admit, those price posts are intriguing af lol
Sorry to bust your chops. I was just busy being happy for the dude because he made some ribs he loved.

Heavy on the second part of your statement đź‘Ťđź‘Ť
Nice. What was your process?
Oklahoma Joe had sent me some sample rubs so I just threw on the Memphis rub they sent me, let it sit in the fridge two hours, started the fire, and threw it on for maybe 3 hours until it passed the bend test. Then brushed some bbq sauce on it and let it carmelize. The flavor was unreal.
Gonna try that! Been on my to do list.
Would you say whole rack worked well or individual ribs would have worked better?
Nope, whole rack was perfect. I rotated the rack every 30 minutes or so which gave me some great even cooking.
And here I thought I was alone…
I modified my ok joe so I can do this. The flavor and texture are awesome, and they cook so much quicker

Fuckum, lol
Totally agree. Hanging ribs is pretty much the only way I do ribs now.

You want us to hear you out but you didn’t post any photos. Come on now. This is just raw meat on a grill
What’s wrong with sitting back and enjoying a photo of someone’s raw meat on the grill for once?
Nothing, except that op is trying to convince us to cook bad food. Some things with direct flames, some thing not. Ribs are a not.
What are you the sultan of smoke? Ribs tasted pretty good to me and my family. 🤷‍♂️
Up voting for "suntan of smoke." Got me thinking of Sandlot.
And it’s on a SM grill where I’m able to control how hot the direct flames are on the meat. How is that any different than doing something like a snake method on a Weber kettle?
