Story time

I was at the super market and they were having buy-one-get-one on ribs. So I bought 2 racks. When I got home I split each rack in half and froze them. Last weekend I made the Papal Conclave ribs from tasting history. I didn’t follow the recipe particularly well and they tasted like ribs you make in a crockpot. It left me craving dry-rubbed ribs so I made this recipe this weekend. I think these came out better then those. Although I left them in the oven too long so some of them were a little dry.
