Braxtaff Method Ribs
Ribs done low and slow with a simple rub. No sauce until the end—if at all. Smoke does the talking. Tender, with a little pull. These are not the mushy kind that just slide off the bone, but they WILL be very tender. A small amount of sauce is added at the end of the cook, and quickly baked on. Kind of a hybrid between dry rubbed and sauced.
