Title: Sunday Molasses Ribs
Post by: RAD on March 03, 2013, 01:01:39 PM
The last butt I did I used molasses as the binder and it was outstanding. So this time I’m doing some SL Ribs and going to try the molasses again with Bad Byron Rub. I think muebe and others have done this.

About 2.5 hours in

Looks like some of the rib tips disappeared and a couple of breasts made their way on the smoker.

Added some butter and back on the smoker

Rib tips were great. Should hold me over until ribs are ready.

I really like using the molasses, it adds a nice bark. Ribs were great, just had a couple more
