i don’t have any experience vac packing ribs but I don’t doubt they be delish. Especially with a sous vide reheat if available!

I do this every time I cook ribs. I by mine at Costco and they are packed as a pack of three racks. With just me and my wife we always have two racks left over. I split them into half racks, vac seal, and freeze. Reheat via Sous Vide. Yummy every time. But various other ways to reheat. Foil wrap and in the oven or smoker works great too.

You're gonna luv it. I do it all the time because it just is not worth cooking enough ribs for just my wife and I. Keep them in their vacpac (important) and drop in some boiling water to heat up. Best way for RVing - next to the real process!

Ditto what the other guys are saying -- it works fine. I reheat gently and only enough to take the chill off -- getting ribs really hot seems to make them less tasty and more dry. I will even reheat in the microwave right in the vacuum bag.

Good to go but make sure any sharp points, if any, are protected so they don't poke a hole in the bagging material. And yes, sous vide to reheat is the right option. iI using a Food Saver or similar, I suggest double bagging to better prevent seal failure or sharp edge damage especially if sous vide reheat is what you choose to do. $0.02

Sometimes I will vac seal them, sometimes I will strip the meat from the bones, them seal that up and use it for later cooking ideas. That rib meat is fantastic stuff, even off the bone.

Large Big Green Egg, Weber Performer Deluxe, Weber Smokey Joe Silver, Maverick 732, DigiQ, and too much other stuff to mention.
Reheat them in the microwave with a damp paper towel for about a minute at 60%. I’ve done it dozens of times, it works great.

Let them thaw in the fridge first. Take them out of the vac pack. Put them on a plate and top them with the damp paper towel(s). Nuke for 30 seconds on high, or 60 seconds on 60%. If you nuke on high, check them, they might need another 10-15 seconds.
I think it’s the only way I’ve ever reheated ribs. I don’t remember doing it any other way. I might have sous vided them once, but this is easier.Last edited by Mosca; April 14, 2021, 09:58 PM.
