Barbecues & Grilling: What's Hot Now: Ribs on a Charcoal Grill

Barbecues & Grilling: What's Hot Now These articles that had the largest increase in popularity over the last week Ribs on a Charcoal Grill 6 Jul 2011, 11:01 am With the grill set up for smoking we can add the ribs. I have two racks so it will be a tight fit. Space the ribs as well as you can. One tip to remember is to push the ends of the ribs together once on the grill. Meat shrinks as it cooks and you don't want the rack to stretch. This can make the ribs tough. By scrunching up the ribs you won't have to worry about this. The cooking method I am using for these baby back ribs is a 3-1-1 method. This means three hours smoking, one hour cooking wrapped in foil, and then another hour unwrapped to finish off. You do not need to use this method and can simply grill the ribs unwrapped through the whole process. However, wrapping will steam the ribs and make them more tender. Because the heat is to one side of our cooking area, it will be important to rotate the ribs as they cook to keep the heat even. I will be flipping and switching the two racks I am cooking after 1 1/2 hours. If you do not wrap the ribs, continue flipping and switching them every 1 1/2 hours.
