RIB RACK | BA0003

A rib rack is a handy tool for grilling or smoking ribs.

When using a rib rack for grilling or smoking ribs, here are some helpful tips:

1. Positioning: Stand the ribs in the rib rack to double the number of ribs you can cook in a limited grill space. Begin with the bone side of the ribs facing the coals to protect the meat.

2. Basting: After the first hour of cooking, baste the ribs with a “mop” (a flavorful liquid). This adds moisture and enhances flavor.

3. Even Cooking: Periodically swap the positions of the ribs in the rib rack to ensure even cooking. Distribute heat and smoke evenly around the meat.

4. Finishing Touch: Toward the end of cooking, face the meaty sides of the ribs toward the coals to brown and crisp the surface.
