I hardly ever cook baby backs but today I decided to test out the difference in flavor between my old traeger and my kettle grill. Cooked them both at the same temp but the charcoal flavor is unmatched. But the real story is every time I make baby backs I always say, “Why don’t I make baby backs more?!!” They are so good!!

Must be pretty uncomfortable.
Get ya some good bbq dry rub from your local grocery store..MCcormiks has some good ones and i also recomend W sauce on it….
Ribs and roast prices are soo high right now
I sleep on baby backs because spare ribs are so much better
All the roast at macs fresh market are $23…and climbing
Now I have the bloody Chili’s jingle stuck in my head.
I always get sleepy after baby backs
I would not say that I “sleep on baby backs” but if you put a gun to my head and make me choose then I’m going to choose St Louis cut spare ribs.
Props for dry rub baby backs that’s how my house likes them. No sauce needed
I just buy at Luis cut. Occasionally whole spare. I accept baby backs as gifts, but it don’t buy them
I don’t sleep on them but I do move them out of the way to get to the St. Louis cut
I did St. Louis style for 15 years. Bought baby backs once on accident, liked them and haven’t switched back. They are more texture consistent across the rack and easier to eat. I get plenty of flavor from rub and smoke.
Def prefer baby back, though Louis ribs have that glorious cartridge to chew on
Unpopular opinion….I actually like baby backs a bit more than spares/St. Louis. I can eat baby backs like chicken wing flats.
Cause St. Louis is the preferred for bbq enthusiasts. I love bby backs.
Spare are just better overall. Babyback aren’t bad, but why not have the almost bacon of ribs?
