LarryR Posted January 23, 2010 Report Share Posted January 23, 2010 Cuple of Questions Got a couple of questions: Spares or Baby Backs? Enhanced or natural ribs? What rub did you use? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
happypig Posted January 23, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 23, 2010 The ribs were babybacks and the rub I used was olive oil and rock salt with pepper. Thank you Happy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LarryR Posted January 23, 2010 Report Share Posted January 23, 2010 Hmmm I would have bet they where enhanced as that's often a complaint when using enhanced ribs. I've never used olive oil in BBQ but I can't imagine it would cause a hammy taste so that leaves me with one thing, the salt. How long was the salt on the ribs? How much salt did you use and how long did they sit with salt on them? There's also the chance that you just got some "off" ribs. Doesn't happen often but I've had an off cut of meat from time to time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
