    Two Questions

    1)What is your favorite Homemade No Sugar St. Louis Rib Rib?
    2) If I am doing 1 Rack Baby Backs, and 1 Rack St. Louis how different is the Timing? I have my Baby Backs pretty consistent @ 5.5 to 6hrs 225-250 on the Pellet Grill.
    Thanks

    As for #1... well i'm not sure... I would probably just be looking at some sort of Salt & Pepper mix... never tried it that way though.

    #2 I find STLs take 1-2 hours longer

      The Pit Barrel all-purpose rub is not bad on ribs but I really think it should be illegal to cook ribs without sugar.

      It takes some really thick back ribs with a lot of loin meat to keep up with most racks of st. Louis ribs.

      I’ve actually used artificial sweeteners in lieu of sugar and was pretty surprised it wasn’t half bad. I’ve also used sugar free syrup with success. The sugar free brown sugar was pretty good.

        what sweetener did you use? I have been using stevia in my tea for a while now but have never tried to cook with it.

        There’s a bunch of different brands out there. I think it was the Walmart brand which is their knockoff of sweet n low. I liked the brown sugar best. And the log cabin sugar free syrup works good when I make bbq sauce.

      Agree with them on the time. Can you make the rub without the brown sugar and substitute it with some kind of artificial sweetener? I may have to do an experiment when I did Home.

      Edit: I think me and Dadof3Illinois was typing at the same and he beat me.
      Thanks Dadof3Illinois I will try the sugar free brown sugar.

        So far it sounds like 7hrs for St.Louis? I can put them on 2 hrs ahead of Baby Backs?

          Nate DWCowles Jerod Broussard Dadof3Illinois or I put the St Louis on 1Hr Early then move them to the hot side of my Pellet Grill? It can be up to 50 hotter if I use upper rack, or move them to the right side.

          I usually cook a tad hotter, 250-275 works great for me and average between 4 1/2 and 5 1/2 hours. But you could put on st same time and wrap the spares after a couple hours to speed them up.
          What kind of pellet grill do you have?

        On my barrel it’s about 5 to 5 1/2 for St. L or full rack. I don’t have a pellet, so can’t help & this might sound a little crazy, but, I have never done babys. Use Memphis dust now almost exclusively.

          Pirate Scott I did some researching and I found this NO CARB brown sugar called Sukrin Gold. I just ordered 6 - 1lb bags from Amazon.

            DWCowles please let me know what you think of it. I just used Splenda in a Rub and it did not Carmalize. They have White and Brown sugar Substitutes looks worth a try.

ID:	459464 I do ribs turbo style 325-350 on BGE or gasser, haven't tried them on the pellet yet. 1hour 20 minutes for BB and 1 hour 40 minutes for St. Louis on the BGE. I've used McCormicks Montreal Steak Seasoning from time to time for a no sugar rub and it was surprisingly good. BB's are top photo and St. Louis is bottom photo.
