Has anyone ever tried grilling ribs over direct heat? If so what type of ribs work best, spares or baby backs? How were your results and how did they compare to smoked ribs. I love ribs of all kinds but have always preferred a crispy outer texture and the carmelization you get from direct heat.
I will be getting a new grill this spring, it has a meat rack that you can crank up and down from 2 - 20 inches off the coals and thought that I'd give it a try. I read in one of Steve Raichlens books that the Rendevous in Memphis uses the direct grilling method for their ribs (dry).
Thanks in advance for any tips or suggestions.
