Not sure what "in-between" means to you but when I said " chew " I was using
this definition .Al dente (Italian for “to the tooth”) is where pasta tastes and feels the best. It's chewy and firm.


I like it still attached to the bone but not where I have to gnaw it off. When I see the meat receding from the end of the bone during cooking, Its close to being done for me.

No doubt 👍👍👍. If there’s any smoked or grilled pork, chicken and sausage left, it goes into a jambalaya.

Hot in temperature and free is good, other wise someplace in Texas near Lackland AFB was the best i ever had.


You are referring to the the towns of Luling and Lockhart. Those have several BBQ places and a reputation state wide for great BBQ. Whether folks decide to go and eat BBQ inside sitting, or pick up BBQ and carry it home, they are always busy, and have excellent reputation.

In 2017, Texas Monthly magazine had a deal about going all over Texas to sample the BBQ of the the top 50 BBQ in the state.

My wife and I did about 40 of these places and decided they weren't any better than those within a mile of our house. I finally quit. It was fun to visit all these different places, and strike up conversations with other folks along the way. We covered all of west Texas, even up to Amarillo and such. I didn't get to the Rio Grande Valley. There's a place in Brownsville that also offers a BBQ cow's head! Just Sayin...RJS

I've eaten in big fancy world renowned BBQ joints and little out of the way BBQ joints and even BBQ joints run out of liquor stores just outside of Lubbock, Texas. I can honestly say that some of the little ones are just as good, maybe even better, than the well known ones that people come from all over the world to eat at.
Good honest folks makin good honest BBQ. That's one of the things I miss the most not livin there anymore.

On that traveling topic, i did the same overseas in search for the best shepherds pie. Name restaurants could not even come close to the back ally off the wall pups being the best.

I like my ribs to have a little fight left in em. Mrs spirit prefers the meat fallin off the bones. Pretty simple fix, when they're done enough for me I'll take some and wrap em in foil with some apple juice, turn up the heat and let em simmer for half hour or so. Pulled pork and brisket we both like juicy and tender - pork to the point it's fallin apart. Chicken I like just done - over cooked it's totally uninteresting. And I like my steaks what they call in the steak houses, "blue".

the best bbq in California can be found in my backyard. The best I've ever eaten was a joint called "the back alley bbq" in Gary Indiana. And yes it was - back an alley.

Like a lot of you I like bbq/smoke.
My question is how do you like it? Doneness? A lot of people swoon over "FALL OFF THE BONE". I prefer it to be "CHEW OFF THE BONE". Hard/impossible to get at bbq joints.
Your thoughts?


I'm with you. With my ribs I wat it tender. But if I bite it and get the whole rib hanging off my lip I know I overcooked it. Need a little chew to be at its best IMHO

That is the way cook off winners win. Just seems can't get it without DIY.
