Best Method For Saucing Ribs On PBC ?
« Reply #-1 on: June 08, 2016, 01:16:58 PM »
Besides chicken - I believe the PBC was made for hanging ribs ... Question is , what is your method / process for saucing ribs towards the end of a cook on the PBC ? I was thinking to let ribs cook by hanging them first until almost done and then pull them off , insert the grill grate  and place ribs flat on the grill grate with sauce applied a few times the last 30 minutes until done  ...Let's hear your method for saucing  ribs on the PBC  !!

I wait till mine are fully cooked, anywhere between the 2 - 2.5 hour mark. When they are done, I will sauce and re hang my ribs for 5-10 minutes. It doesn't take long to get my sauce to caramelize

I recently did these and put them on my grate for the first time to sauce. I have yet to wrap ribs on the PBC, I've had phenomenal results without

Last few rack of baby backs that I did...I let them go to 2 hrs 15 mins.....and take it out sauce it up, hang it back for another 15 mins.  I have been able to get ribs done in 2.5 hrs on my PBC, which is still taking some getting used to vs. my other cookers!

LOVING my PBC!!

Try this:  Ribs come out of the PBC plenty hot.  Sauce them ASAP when they come out and let them sit for five minutes on your cutting board, uncovered.  Unless you put on a whole lot of sauce, the heat from the ribs will set the sauce nicely in a very short time and they'll still burn your fingers when you start slicing them  ;D

No need to re-hang or put the grate in  :o

Hint:  Poke around with your instant read thermometer and pull the ribs when the average temperature between the bones (probe not touching a bone) is 200 degrees.
