Has anyone ever cooked ribs just as you normally would, everything seemed fine and looked good but when you tasted them they were just awful? Happened to me today and I can't figure it out.

It doesn't seem that they were 'bacteria bad', because my son ate half a rack (he was so hungry he could eat dirt) and he isn't sick at all. Is it possible to just get a bad rack?

The only thing new in the entire process was I used Kingsford's new 'Competition' Charcoal for the first time. I have never used it before but bought it because they were out of lump at the grocery. Could that possibly put a bad taste in the meat?
