Finishing Ribs on a Cookie Sheet?

mattchooMember

Ex stick burner really loving my AmeriQue, making great family BBQ along with more family time. With my stick burner I used a cookie sheet after ribs took enough smoke and finished on a cookie sheet covered with Al foil. I like the cookie sheet for it prevented getting a hole in the Al foil causing juice loss and easier to check for being done. Any concerns using this cookie sheet approach?

Prime Rib next meat up for our SM066.

Only concern would be air flow, make sure you have some space around the outside of the pan so it doesn't restrict the airflow.

I had an AmeriQue for seven years and never once foiled ribs. The smoker cooks very moist, are you not happy with your results?

I cooked at 250 degrees until bend-test tender (usually 4 1/2 to 5/12 hours) and glazed with sauce in the last thirty minutes of cooking.

Give it a try with out foiling. You may find the A.Q. needs no foiling.

Shouldn't be an issue, but I smoke my almonds on a cookie sheet and can say it does restrict air flow. Use the smallest size you can.

I rarely foil ribs but have done so occasionally. I also use an AQ.

I've never foiled ribs with my AQ. After they are done, I foil them in the oven at 200 for up to an hour before serving if necessary, just to keep warm, but even then they are still juicy and tasty.

I am typically using my same techniques from my stick burner so after 3hours I add apple juice, darn brown sugar, Parkay butter, homemade honey and a little rub wrapped in foil to finish them. Typically a 6hour 225F smoke. Very pleased with the results but like to get away from foil if possible.
