Do u guys take rib temps?

[JS-TX]

Too many variables to be reliable.. you'll be chasing temps with varying results. probe tender.. done.

No. I look at when they pull back from the bone, then probe for tenderness.

I'm with the probe crowd. I too suggest keeping a log for cooks. When you nail a specific item, then you can quit logging that item. It's a very handy reference for folks like me with no memory.

At this point I pretty much cook ribs by time. Hang 2 hrs. About 30 minutes wrapped then boated for 30. Once in a while I'll make a slight adjustment but its pretty consistent.

You need a probe like a Thermopen or any of the pro-series probes.

A tooth pick or better yet a bamboo skewers will work just fine.

I use bamboo skewer sticks - when glides between Bones just so - Done.

Same here!

OK, gonna be that guy. I've done it both ways feel/look and temp. First, your looking for color and some pullback, but if temping between the ribs, temp would be about 170-175. JMHO.

175? Curious, do you enjoy a modest amount of tug?

I use the bend test but this last time I temped for
Kicks and they were at 200-202

I never have and I no longer foil. I go by time, pull back and bend test.

Reread the OP, He asked about temp before wrapping in foil...

No good reason to ever temp ribs.

Due to the bone mass, the temps will never be as accurate as the bend test
