Costco Seasoned St. Louis Ribs This Wkend...How To CooK?
This wkend = Sat. night.
. OK Cookies, what's the secret? Don't want to cook them on a grill (BBQ) so will do them in the oven. There's a suggestion on the wrapper but I want to know the inside stuff. Any advice? Thank you muchly. . ![]()

Seriously, charcoal grill if you don't have a smoker. Place soaked wood chips on the coals, and smoke with indirect heat at 230- 240F for the first hour, or hour and a half. For the last half hour of cooking, wrap in Al foil with apple cider for an apple wood smoked flavor. Don't cook with sauce. Sauce is something you serve on the side after cooking/ smoking.

"Don't cook with sauce. Sauce is something you serve on the side after cooking/ smoking.'
~~~~~~~~~` I've heard that before... Been looking online at recipes and they add sauce prior to cooking. Thanks for the "inside stuff". . One day I'll do 'em on the grill...feeling lazy lately. ~~~~~~~~` Also did a PPOT search for BBQ sauce...looks like Stubb's has good ingredients - no fructose, etc. . Here's the ingredients list: Water, Tomato Paste, Cane Sugar, Distilled Vinegar, Molasses, Tapioca Dextrin, Salt, Brown Sugar, Spices, non-GMO Corn Starch, Contains less than 0.5% of: Onion, Paprika, Garlic, Chile Powder, Natural Smoke Flavor, Guar Gum, Xanthan Gum, Corn Syrup, Tamarind.

that's if you smoke the ribs. Sauce gets all carmelized and then you have a mess. What you're trying to do is get the rub that is already on there to flavor the meat. I would not add sauce to that rub. Look at recipies that use a rub.

The ribs that you bought at Costco are already seasoned. DO NOT add sauce!
The directions on the label for cooking on the grill work well. |

On the label is instructions for grilling and oven.
Fairly simple, really. Key is slow, slow, slow...hours & hours...and foil, etc. . Don't add sauce - got it! Thanks gents.

If you have the time, go even lower (200) and longer (5 hours). Be sure there is moisture in the roaster (at least a cup of water or chicken broth); I use a dutch oven (cast iron). I usually finsh them on the grill, but its not necessary. Agreed, no sauce until on the table.

No sauce added.
Apple cider. Low (deep voice) heat - 200'. Check! . Can apple cider be a substitute for water/broth?

Bought two different BBQ sauces.
Stubb's is a bit tomatoey...but tasty. . ![]() . ~~~~~~~ . KC Masterpiece Classic is more smokey than Stubb's. We'll have them both on the table. . ![]()

The Apple will add some of that flavor (subtle). I prefer beer, but it not a big deal; all good!

Reynolds large baking bag at 300 for an hour and forty-five. Throw sauce on them at the end.

Pre seasoned? Are you kidding me? Never. That stuff is always of poor quality in my experience. I hope you don't get sick.

Anything over 200 and they will dry out.
Here's the deal. When smoking or slow cooking you want the temp high enough to render the fat, make it soft and cook off a bit... However you want to keep the temp low enough that the moisture (water) in the meat doesn't boil off so much. I do my loin ribs at 180-200 in my smoker for 4-5 hours. Baby backs at no more than 4 because they are thinner and dry out faster. I'd finish yours up on the grill to get some carmelization of the sauce sugars at the end.
