I usually smoke 10 racks of ribs at a time and store 5 or six of them for later consumption. I wrap them in foil and then stack them in one of those vacuum bags you store sweaters in and suck out the air using a vacuum. I've stored them in the refrigerator (not freezer) for as long as a month without any degradation in the taste or quality of the meat. I pull them out, leave them wrapped up in the foil, and put them in the oven at 360 for 1 hour. For the last 6 to 8 minutes I open the foil a bit to cook off some of the moisture.

How Long Will Smoked Ribs Keep by: SmokerBill
Vacuum sealed and refrigerated, no more than two days. Frozen, 3 months. They will not keep without refrigeration.
But for some strange reason, I never have to deal with the problem of keeping ribs for more than a few hours after they're smoked!
