I had been looking for a rib rack to fit in my 14.5 WSM with no luck at 3 of my surrounding Lowe's and i cant even remember how many wally worlds i have been to... but i decided to look at Home Depot and i could not believe the selection of BBQ equipment they have... definitely going to Home Depot from now on...

Looks great.  Were they fall off the bone?

 

[jcollins]

Close but no. i do not prefer them to be...BUT my wife does... so next time hers will be wrapped in foil.

Have you tried them wrapped in Kraft paper? Worth trying. But then I think everything is worth trying.

 

[jcollins]

I am not quite sure what kraft paper is.....i dont think 

 

[mummel]

Is that butcher's paper?

Welcome to the dark side! That's some meaty looking ribs!

I think kraft paper is like a paper bag, like shipping paper not butcher paper. I have gone to no foil about 3 months ago. I really like it. Baby backs at 275*, done in 3 hours + glaze time. Yours looked great. Good luck, Joe

Thanks guys

Did a similar experiment last weekend for the first time as well. Two slabs with the same everything, one in foil and one without. The wife preferred the one in foil and I joined the dark side.

The next time you have a crowd, do half and half and then take a poll. Then let us know.
