I have never fixed ribs before so I asked one of the guys on my shift at the fire station to show me how. That was mistake number one! He said "OK, but we do it my way". I didn't think nothing of it until after we got started. His way consisted of boiling the ribs for about 30 minutes saucing them and then throwing them on the smoker for about two hours. Now the next time I try ribs I will remove the membrane rub them down and place them on the smoker until tender. These ribs I believe were over cooked, not to mention being the toughest and most tasteless things I have ever eaten.
