I have very little experience cooking ribs. I just seasoned 3 racks of baby backs from Costco. I honestly could not tell if there was a membrane on the back of those. I tried like hell to pry something up with a knife and got nowhere. Didnt seem like there was anything to take off. Dies anyone know if the membrane is already removed on Costco ribs ir am i just terrible at removing membrane?

I buy Swifts Premium baby loin back ribs at Costco all the time. It is very unusual to ever find a membrane on these. They are very meaty and cook up nicely for me.

Good luck with yours, Joe. :grilling_smilie:
 
Thanks Joe. I thought i was maybe going crazy. These swift ribs look much bigger and meatier than the previous baby backs i have cooked. Will the 2-2-1 method still work on these or do they need a longer cook.
 
Thanks al. I dont have a thermometer like that to check temps. I have an ivation probe therm and the probe therm that come on my GMG. I wonder if these would work. I alway figured there was to thin of meat to work with to get a proper temp reading on ribs.
 
Personally, I never wrap ribs. I smoke the Swifts baby loin backs between 250-275* for 3 hours. If they give me a pretty good bend at that point, I sauce/glaze them twice for 15 minutes each time. They usually turn out done just right with the glaze candied well and with a slight tug.

Good luck and good smoking, Joe. :grilling_smilie:
