As a church goin' type, I'm unable to tend to my cooker this coming Super Bowl morn. I'd like to do a few racks of spares but my timings won't match up between getting home and the game.

Would it be possible/edible to do 3-2 on Saturday, then hold to the next afternoon to finish?

Thoughts?
 
Do you have a food saver? If so, cook them fully; seal in food saver bag while hot; plunge into ice to cool them; put them in fridge; 30 minutes before you want to eat them put them in a pot of boiling water; let them boil until hot; remove from pot; cut them out of the bag; serve. They will be superb.
 
You can get very good results doing what you are proposing to do. What I have done, and I tend not to foil normally, is cook them for 2 hours no foil, then 2 hours foiled. Remove them from the heat, wrap them in heavy duty plastic wrap and chill them. To reheat them, I fire up the oven, smoker is not needed, the smoke from the day before will have settled into the meat, it will be fine. Dip the ribs is some thinned sauce (50% BBQ sauce, 25% beef broth, 25% mild vinegar), pop them into a 300F oven and heat through.

^^^^Exactly the best way to reheat and serve for freshness. You can also throw them on a gas grill to "crisp" up the outside after they are done warming up in the water if you want.
 
No doubt. 3-2 or however long you want. Remove from foil. I just bring them outside on a sheet pan and cold in 15 min. Then Finish them off and sauce ( if you sauce them ) on your gasser.

i'm pretty sure god will understand if you miss church on superbowl sunday, god loves football too. :razz: I, however, will be at work for the superbowl. i'm working on seeing if god can get me the day off but my chances are slim....

:wink:
 
This is exactly what many restaurants do. Cook until tender, wrap, chill, and then warm up and set the sauce on a grill or impinger
 
I just did this last weekend, but it was 3 - wait a day - 2.5 - .75. For the 2.5, I *lightly* brushed the ribs with agave and foiled with some clarified butter at 250. For the .75 I poured the liquid from the foil packets into my glazing sauce, glazed the ribs and finished them at 275. Couldn't tell any difference at all.
 
Superbowl Sunday is like my birthday, the 4th of July, New Years, Christmas, Hanukkah, and Kwanzaa all rolled up into one for me. When my wife and I decided we wanted to have a baby, I told her that we need to time it right so he isn't born during football season, and on no accounts any chance that his birthday will conflict with playoff football or the Superbowl. He was born on May 5.

Church can wait until next Sunday. God will understand.
