...but most people don't have a nice, big smoker that can fit a slab of ribs in it, do they? My way, not only makes the meat incredibly tender, and deals with connective tissue - which I'm still not convinced that smoking does... but it's also something that anyone with an oven can do in their own homes. I'm not saying that you can't make good ribs by smoking them, I'm saying that *anyone* can make great ribs by following my simple advice.

Now you're backpedaling...and you should be because you're wrong. Anyone that cares about good ribs has a smoker. They're not expensive and you can get them anywhere. Ribs should taste like they were smoked. Period. You can't get that from adding some crappy fake smoke [censored] to your crappy ketchup-based sauce. And you can't get it from 5 minutes on the grill. If you want good ribs, you have to smoke them.
