I have been cooking a baby back rack and St. Louis rack every time I grill/smoke ribs. Other then the baby backs being slightly leaner (and usually a $1/lb more) I have not noticed much difference.

I tend do a dry rub on one and it stays that way. On the other rack I do a simple seasoning then baste with some really good BBQ sauce towards then end. I tightly wrap both of them, then they sit over night.

Back ribs! I buy the half pork loin and get my butcher to cut off the back rib leaving double the meat on the ribs. Slow cook at 300 with dry rub in a covered pan with a little water for 2 hours. Then re season and broil till tops are crispy. My family and friends love them.

ah yes, the ubiquitous t-bone. while high on the MeatMan's list, you cant beat a bone-in ribeye for flavor and texture.

as for piggy...st lou's all the way. baby backs are are great, dont get me wrong; but the st louis just has a meatier consistency and holds flavor and smoke better IMHO.

Rib Eye {or Bone in standing Rib Roast} & St. Louis yummie

now I'm hungry
 
I like the baby back ribs. They tend to cook faster on the smoker. I use a dry rub with the 3 2 1 method. 3hrs. uncovered at 275 deg 2hrs. in foil then 1hr. in sauce. A little longer for the St.Louis style. Which is just a spare rib with a square cut.
 
Sonny's BBQ chain Florida. Sweet and Smoky. NO good ribs in San Jose.
 
Never cared for ribs. I just don't like them.
 
Slow cooked using the 1 2 3 process....

Vs the 3 2 1 method??


For me, 6 hours is way too long. I prefer to eat the meat off the rib, not pull the bone out of the rack.
