Hey All,
We're taking some Q up to a friend's place in the city (~40 min. from home) Sunday evening. I made Keri's beans tonight and am planning on heating them up right before we leave, then putting them in their oven for a few minutes when we arrive.
I'm also planning on 4 racks of baby backs for the dinner. Here's my quandry: I'll only have 4 hours at home on Sunday before we have to leave for their place. So, how should I cook the ribs?
If I do 2-2-1, and the "1" is coolered, then the coolering could happen on the way up to their house. If I do that, though, when should I put the sauce on them (during the last foiled hour?)
Or, I guess I could cook them dry (2-2-1 or 2-2 or whatever), then put them on the friends grill to heat them up and finish them off.
Anyway, what do you think would give us the best ribs when it comes time to sit down for dinner?
I know this is a newbie question, but it's ok. I'm a newbie and I'm trying to build a specific plan of attack. :icon_blush:
Thoughts?
Thanks,
Bret
