[The Fatboy]

Dry rub please

 

[UpTheMiddlex3Punt]

Dry rub. Cook at 400° in the oven. Cover with Kraft hickory BBQ sauce and serve.

Wet or dry ribs?

DRY

 

[Car Ramrod.sixpack]

Dry, go ahead and lock it.

 

[BlueRidgeMtns]

Dryyyyy

 

[dawgman42]

Dry with a light glazing of homemade bbq sauce at the very end.

 

[dudehead]

Both

 

[Jeffreauxdawg]

Bacon wrapped. And go ahead and put a jalapeno slice on it.

 

[ezsoil]

Dry

This is the answer. I think a lot of people shy away from wet because not many want their ribs dripping with BBQ sauce. That said, hitting them with a light brush at the end while cranking up the heat for about 20-30 min is a great way to finish them off.

I’m not the biggest fan of the actual restaurant, but Rendezvous has a great sauce for doing that. It’s thinner than most due I think to a little extra vinegar content, and it’s sweet, but not that thick molasses sweet like a lot of the store bought stuff

Dry rub but a light honey glaze at the end.

I posted before I saw this. This is the correct answer. It is still dry but has that nice appealing glaze like candy. I use Sweet Baby Rays with beer, honey, and tabasco to thin it out. Put it in a pot and simmer it down a bit then add some red pepper flakes. The thin consistency just puts on a slight bit of extra flavor and makes the ribs pop to the eye.

Wet or dry ribs?

Blond or Brunette?

I say both and don't see why the answer to wet or dry ribs would be any different.

 

[Dawgbite]

80% Dry- 20% Wet. Variety is the spice of life.

 

[PBRME]

Yes

 

[dorndawg]

For the handful of times I have had perfect, sublime ribs - dry.

For the vast majority of ribs, ranging from good, to acceptable, to not great? BBQ improves them

 

[DesotoCountyDawg]

Dry

 

[PartTimeGenius]

Truly good ribs I prefer dry hands down. So-so ribs need the sauce

 

[Yakcr1983]

That's unamerican! the oven nor Kraft should have anything to do with ribs.

 

[msudawg12]

Dry

 

[CreekFishin]

Wet at home, cause I cheat. Dry when eating out.

 

[UpTheMiddlex3Punt]

I forgot my sacasterisks. Or should have thrown Dale's in there.

Though to be honest Dale's is only really useful for pork loin and wagyu**

 

[Jeffreauxdawg]

... Dry when eating out.

So you like the smoked salmon huh?

10-20 years ago, I loved going there. Ribs were great and the pitchers of Michelob went down smooth. A visit a couple years ago was a great disappointment.

I laughed

 

[PirateDawg]

Dry - try Silky O'Sullivan's (Memphis) dry rub ribs

Wet or dry ribs?

This thread got me interested in making a road trip!

 

[Bulldog Bruce]

I think there needs to be a definition on this question. To me when I go to a BBQ place here in Memphis I order dry and they come with no sauce on them. I order wet they come with sauce on them and were cooked for a period of time with the sauce. Both had the dry rub at the beginning. So anyone who finishes it off with sauce and cooks them with sauce you are doing wet ribs. If you never cooked them with sauce, even if you add sauce as you are eating them, those are dry.

I always order dry and add sauce if it's needed.

 

[MeridianDog]

Representative - probably dry. I'm not sure I ever had a tender rib I didn't like. Sadly, I have been served some really tough ribs, and they were not as good as I wanted, but I ate them anyway.

This is very good answer. Still, even if I had access to good ribs all the time, I'd still want to mix some wet ribs in from time to time.

I honestly just posted this because the same thread name showed up multiple times. I guess everybody is pretty passionate about their ribs lol.

Just like you, I always get dry as well and will dip some sauce if I feel like it.

Dreamland sauce on my own 3-2-1 ribs.
