    First ribs one rack ( in three pieces ) baby backs and the other were St. Louis style . Ran 250 ° 3-3-1 and they were good but to done . The family got caught up in traffic so they were wrapped for 3 hrs. Baby backs won the S-L style had a lot of fat ( there suppose to) but both were very good. Bill

    Dill pickles are too soft,,,why?

    The lids are heated to soften the seal and sterilize. Then the hot bath helps seal everything I think. This pickle recipe  we entered in Minnesota's state fair didn't win but got a showing in the display case.
