I overheard a conversation today about boiling ribs before you cook them. Does anyone else do this?

I never said I did it. Personally I have never even heard of anyone boiling ribs before.

I've seen some black folks do it. They was good ribs too.

Myth: Boil ribs to make them tender A lot of folks boil their ribs. Don't do it! You wouldn't boil a steak would you? When you boil meat and bones, you make flavorful soup. That's because water is a solvent that pulls much of the flavor out of the meat and bones and makes the meat mushy. Boiling also removes vitamins and minerals. That's why the water is cloudy when you're done. That's flavor in the water. DOH! Taste tests have shown that ribs are most flavorful when roasted. If you are in a hurry, you are better off steaming or microwaving ribs and then finishing them on the grill or under the broiler. Just don't boil 'em if you want max flavor! If you boil ribs the terrorists win.

I'll say I have. Are there better ways to cook ribs? Hell yes! Do I much prefer smoked ribs? Hell Yes! Are boiled ribs edible? Sure.
Boiled in crab boil and then broiled in the oven with sauce makes serviceable ribs despite what purists claim. Just don't go expecting #awardwinningribsbestribsusatoday

I don't, but I have heard of it. More of a backyard BBQ trick for a fast cook. Boil to cook them, finish on the grill to sauce and some char

That's why you add flavor to the water. You don't boil crawfish in plain water, do you?

Boiled ribs in crab boil will change your life!
You can't bitch unless you tried it. Moist seasoned ribs with crusty BBQ sauce is the shiznit

I worked in a wing place that boiled their ribs. Wings were awesome. Ribs sucked.
There's a BBQ place in Bham that has "fall of the bone ribs." Ice accused them of boiling but it's probably unfounded. I think they just cook them too long.

Same here. Some of my black friends mothers would do them like this then finish them off in the oven. One friends mom would wrap them in tinfoil until they were so tender the rib bones would pull out completely clean. Not my favorite way to eat them by a long shot but it wasn't inedible food either.

I have and I enjoyed them. I also smoke ribs and enjoy those more.
