BBQ with Franklin: Pork Ribs part 1

[@kennethaustin8308]

Franklin I see no one has been here for a while, so I don't know if you will ever get this. Accidentally, I came across a fantastic technique to make the best ribs I've ever eaten. I live in Houston but was in Mississippi cooking Q for the family and about 3/4's through it started pouring down rain and I had to pull all the meat off and afrte some hours of constant downpour, I covered everything and put it in the fridge. Next day I restarted my fire (Hichory and Pecan) and put everything back own to finish. Cooked as usual and wrapped with foil near end and took it off as it got done. Chicken and ribs in their time frame. Best damn Bar-B-Que ever!!! Family and friends went crazy with praise of best Q they had EVER eaten. Tested the technique a few more times on my next cooks, and lo and behold, the twice cook hands down ALWAYS come out with that magnificent taste. It is time consuming and bit more work, but you know the joy and satisfaction of the end product. I am not worthy of giving you an ounce of advice about Bar-B-Que whatsoever, but one day when you got the time, I urge you to give this a try. I call it my "Twice Q'd Que". I assume the meat pores closing down on that already infused meat and reopening with another infusion must be the trick. Whatever, it has never failed me yet and every time I can allocate the time, I double cook now. Even the chicken is more scrumptious and the ribs are just to die for. Just wanted to let you in on an accident that could possibly revolutionize the game. Sorry to bug you with this epilogue, have a good day and hope by chance you find this.

[@jonnierotten7]

Undercooked the first time around, sounds like potential for food poisoning to me, but, whatever.

[@jordanbabcock9349]

​@@jonnierotten7not if you cool properly. The technique is called "par cooking" and is used around the world. Very popular with items like breaded chicken for catering.

[@jlim9411]

No self-respecting pit master gives out all his secrets. He may give the recipe and technique, but there’s always going to be those hidden trade secrets that make his better than everyone else’s.

[@cryangallegos]

I used this as a reference for some ribs yesterday, I ended up trimming a lot more from the top, but about 90% of my trimmings I cooked anyways. Most got chopped up and cooked for tacos, the bigger chunks were BBQd and eaten as snacks while the ribs cooked. The 2-1 Pepper-Salt ratio was spot on. I also added a hint of smoked paprika just to see how it would turn out, and used brown mustard as a binder as is popular for beef briskets around here. Other than that, cooked the same, although on a modified kettle. Final product turned out great. Probably could've come off about 15 minutes earlier, but the ribs were still able to be portioned out without falling apart. Went REALLY light on the sauce/AC vinegar mixture before wrapping, and I'm glad I did. The SPP really shined with the flavor of the meat and Applewood chunks (heat was lump charcoal) One of these days I'm gonna weld up a dedicated smoker.

[@catibree1]

My son watched this video, then went out and bought the meat... did as instructions said.., Turned out to be the best I have ever eaten, My son also bought on of this guys recipe books, and made the potato salad and beans... Awesome. Pure and simple awesome.

[@cleavedgegaming3873]

Reading these comments is great. So many people throwing a fit because he tossed out a few meat scraps. In this video, he was doing 1 single rack of ribs. Just one. The man does roughly 300 pounds of ribs a day, the scraps from 1 rack don't matter. If you watch his other videos, you will hear him clearly explain that the meat scraps are used to make their sausages because they have tons of meat scraps from all the ribs and briskets and everything else.

[@FreeCosmos]

So ... using your logic, if he throws that much away from all the ribs he cooks, then the amount of waste is huge.

[@great207]

@@FreeCosmos Did you read the end of the post about how he uses the large amount of scraps for sausage?

Facts! me too. His nonchalant wasting of food is a bit disturbing. Especially in today's uncertain financial climate where every crumb of food matters in my house.

[@willmann30]

Exactly. Spare ribs taste better but require trimming for an even cook. Those trimmings I season with Flavor God's garlic lover's and refrigerate because the next day I throw the trimmings in my slow cooker with pinto beans, Brown sugar, sliced onions, celery and green bell pepper. Cooks for 12 hrs. Absolutely the best.

[@tunewriter2005]

These are awesome videos. When I got to the point where you were cutting the brisket on the moist end, I was tapping the screen "can I have some please?" Man, can't wait to try it. Thanks!

[@6xArcaNumx6]

I've got an awesome rack of pork spareribs from my high-end ethical butcher. Tomorrow I am going to try your method Aaron and smoke all day long as best I can in my kettle before I get my Yoder Wichita. I can't wait to see how it turns out. I like your methods and your book is fantastic, other people make their stuff way too sweet for my tastes. And all the people commenting on the waste, give me a break scroll down a little bit and read Adam Mahon's comment. He says it all perfectly concise and clear.

[@hunterbustos]

You people with the waste talk... he said you could use it for beans. He's teaching how to cook ribs, not everything you can make with the waste. Damn....didn't know people could find something to hate about a guy trying to improve your BBQ. Thanks Aaron! Trying a brisket tonight!

[@Dakiniwoman]

Raymond bustos....The thing is... he DID throw it away... I know what it is to have no food... to cry when you only have bread and mayonnaise to put in a sandwich to send your child to school with... to spend days on end without eating so your children can eat... so wasting is immoral in my mind...

[@TeamIFDVideos]

That tip is the best part. Sure it will cook more and get overdone but its taste is like a pork jerky. Phenomenal.

[@MW-eu4yw]

This guy is great but I've watched his Masterclass and he makes declarative statements that he contradicts himself with here such as I don't add garlic or onion flavors .. I like the flavor of the meat to show .. but here he does. I don't take the membrane off, but here here he does. Always uses yellow mustard as a binder ... here he says he loves using olive oil and brisket doesn't need a binder though he uses one in the masterclass. Not complaining by any means...I just find it interesting. For someone as ocd as myself...this bbq thing is a challenge...but I guess that is what makes BBQ great...it's never the same twice!!

[@franciscosaavedra3658]

Could be the evolution of his knowledge. I’ve been a baker for 10 years and I’ve been teaching for about five and my class is always evolving. Now I do things when kneading or baking that I wouldn’t have done 5 years ago and vice versa…craft is always evolving as one tries new stuff

[@arronvandeneynde]

Could be in his masterclass he's saying what he would do as a pitmaster running his restaurant, and in his youtube videos, it's more just having fun and cooking good food. Just a thought.

[@SalomeLuna69]

This was ten years ago. His “masterclass” was just when masterclass was invented so I’m sure he’s changed his philosophy since recording this video.

[@silvermediastudio]

[@onehappydawg]

Dude! The tip that you just sliced off and threw away is like the best part of the rib. When I was in High school I worked at a barbecue restaurant in Pasadena Texas and that was the part of the rib that never made it on the customers plate because we always ate it in the back before it ever made it up front to the cutting board. I feel a little saddened for that poor piece of meat that no one will ever get to enjoy.

[@amberdavis2551]

Damn right

[@robedmund9948]

Yep! I was getting a bit pissed when he just tossed good parts into the garbage. Not sure he's ever heard of "Everything but the Oink"!

[@frankzhang7529]

Yea, personally, I like to leave it on. It can give the rib a bit of pop, and otherwise has a nice bit of chew with really good flavor. Not for people who like simple convenient easy to eat food, but in my book, removing it is a waste.

[@bowjoe76]

@@frankzhang7529 The membrane makes the difference between everyone eating them like the juicy tender piece of meat they become and leaving it on for someone who likes to spend and hour eating a half rack because they like to chew on foods like a bulldog. I bet you eat your steaks well done too!

I score the membrane when I’m cooking a bunch of ribs but if it’s just 2 racks I take them off

[@JakeStuart]

The best way to peel off the membrane is with a paper towel. Just get a loose end started and the paper towel will grip the slippery membrane and not let go. Once you do it a few times it gets faster. I can strip that membrane now in seconds where it used to take me several minutes per rack because of the slipperiness. Hope this helps some one out there in BBQ land!

As an avid griller, I recently made the switch from Traeger+ to Asmoke and I couldn't be happier. The Asmoke grill has revolutionized my grilling experience with its advanced temperature control, allowing me to achieve the perfect smoky flavor every time. The variety of wood pellet flavors is a game-changer, tailoring the taste to my preference. As a bonus, it's portable and battery-powered, which has been perfect for my camping trips. The Asmoke Essential's smart design also makes cleaning up a breeze. Plus, with the Asmoke app, I can monitor my food temperature remotely and even share my favorite recipes. I have found Asmoke to be far more versatile and convenient than my previous grill. I'm looking forward to creating more delicious BBQ dishes with my Asmoke grill. #Asmoke

Margarine & brown sugar etc are what people use when they are making competition ribs. You can't eat those as a whole meal. Those are meant for the one-bite judges.

[@muskdeeer]

To those saying Mr. Franklin wasted meat, I don't exactly disagree. However, if you have truly never trashed any perfectly edible food before in your life, I will eat my fucking hat. He tossed, maybe, 6 oz of edible meat. He could have put it aside, made another dish, sure. But try to have some more perspective before you go on about wasted food. I mean, you're gonna blast Franklin over >1lbs of meat? Your local supermarket tosses 1000's of pounds of food per week; you're vilifying the wrong guy! For what its worth, i'm a farmer. It's a small, diverse, organic, vegetable operation, and I know what it's like to be inundated with excess product. Even after donating to food pantries (10's of thousands of pounds per year in our case), we still get left with some excess, and frankly preserving and preparing every bit of food is simply more hours of effort we can't afford.

[@tsandphotog]

Well said, Adam!

[@Maury_DeLeon]

I would agree with you if we were just talking about 1 rack of ribs, although i would still save it for a stock or red beans (i'm from New Orleans). But in his case, it isn't just 1 rack of ribs. He probably goes through anywhere from 25-50 in a weekend easily. At your guess of 6 ounces, thats anywhere from 9.3 lbs to 18.75 lbs of wasted food in a weekend. All of that could easily go to families in need or shelters to make many different things. I think it's just an opportunity going to waste and not only the food being wasted.

Aaron, I have just discovered your channel as i have gotten a smoker for an early Christmas present and it looksl as if you haven't posted a video in a few years. I don't know if you still check your account but I wanted to tell you that I love your videos and am looking very forward to using some of your tips very soon. Be well and Merry Christmas!!

His bbq costs so much bc he needs to cover his losses from what he throws away if he does that to 60 racks of ribs that’s crazy

[@aaronsovey171]

I think he turns his scraps into sausage and BBQ beans.

He turns the scraps into sausage

[@JohnDoe-gv9jv]

Yea I agree with the other replies. He is doing that for video tips on showcase cooking only.

[@brandonbelch1254]

He makes some of the best bbq in Texas it should be priced high lol

[@magicfireass8107]

His bbq costs so much because he can get it. Sells out every day, line around the corner. Why would he do it for less when he can get it? It's the definition of capitalism and supply/demand.

Thank you very much Chef for the spare rib trimming instructions, I will try the rub tomorrow but will add tumeric to it as well.

I don't love bbq sauce... I could drink the stuff I just made under his recipe.
