best beef rib bbq sauce

by John
(Silverton, Oregon)

I just finished my first beef rib smoke. The cook was perfect. 3 1/2 hours of smoke followed by 2 1/2 hours in the oven wrapped in foil. the meat was tender and falling from the bone. Here's my problem . . . I used a rub before smoking and a "cheap" (Kraft) BBQ sauce to finish. Everyone loved it. Not me. It was too salty from the rub and the BBQ sauce sucked. My favorite beef ribs have always been from non-rib restaurants. Can you tell me what the most common beef rib sauce for restaurants is?

Thanks for any help.

by: Rick

I'm not sure what restaurants use, but for me, I like a barbecue sauce that's on the sweet side for smoked beef ribs. If I'm not making my own homemade bbq sauce, I'll buy one of the varieties of KC Masterpiece, or Cattleman's, or Sweet Baby Ray's. Those are probably my favorites for beef ribs.

But if you don't like a sweet sauce, or are watching calories, try one of the spicy bbq sauces. Check the ingredient list on the bottle, and compare the calories per serving. Non-sweet bbq sauces are a lot lower in calories than the sweeter sauces.
