So my first set of ribs...1.5 oz of hickory, slab of st louis with the rib tips & flap smoking also. 200 deg (225 would have been better)for 5.5 hrs. tips & flap were great. pulled it all at the same time. when i got around to the ribs, they obviously could have gone longer (couple of more hours) still kind of tough and not loose on the bone. Here is my question. Can I throw them back on tonight for a few more hours to finish em up? My wife likes them cold, but I want some RIBS! Or should I admit defeat and try again next time. They were not "done when they are done"! I looked at some past forums, and any reheating was based on if the pit master (or flunkie in my case) had done it right in the first place!!
