Ribs: Fall Off The Bone--Yes or NO?

[Willy]

I fixed it per your comment. Thanks.

I shut my eyes and eat.

The proper term is "bite through" and yes that's the way I like it as well. Fall off to me is over cooked but if that's how you like it then go for it. Always more than one way to skin that old cat !!

I like fall off the bone when I'm pulling the meat off the bone of my leftover ribs to put in my ramen. Otherwise, I like a little bite/tug.

rrsaylor do whatever recipe you like, BoB is just Bite off the Bone so doneness at the end... maybe method isn't the right word

[rrsaylor]

New here what method is BoB i have done and heard of 3-2-1 method

Aren't they overcooked if they actually fall off the bone? I've always believed that a rib that requires a slight mouth tug is a perfectly cooked rib.

Wow, a nickname from FireMan. I am totally honored!

I went with don’t care. Prefer tugable but fall off is ok too.

I love ribs either way. I always get compliments either way. However, I have been using the " blasphemy rib " method coupled with Brisket Syndicate's method of bacon wrap ribs. I don't have to worry about cutting them and having them fall apart. The bacon gives a nice bite and chew.

Solution: Each person gets a whole rack! Or, maybe a half rack if cut prior to cooking?

Fall of the bone makes a good sandwich or some Asian dishes... I liked ribs, but didn't love them until I discovered BoB as the better method for my tastes.

[FireMan]

Agree with Dub D, wibs is wibs.
Unless it’s from a chainfries that specializes in whatever, then it’s somethin I won’t eat.

[Mudkat]

I "prefer" tug, but don't recall ever disliking a rack of ribs.

The only reason fall off the bone ribs bother me is I get irritated trying to cut them and they're falling apart. Never had a complaint from the family or guests. They always tell me I'm crazy for complaining.
