Foil Boat Ribs: More Smoke, Same Tenderness
Ever wish your ribs had more smoke flavor — without sacrificing tenderness or drying them out?
In this video, I’m breaking down the foil boat rib method, a smarter way to finish ribs that lets smoke in without sacrificing tenderness.
You’ll learn:
✅ Why full wrapping, although effective, can mute bark and smoke
✅ How the foil boat exposes meat to more airflow
✅ When and how to switch to a foil boat mid-cook
I’ll show you real-time results from the pit — color, bark, and that bite-through tenderness — so you can judge for yourself.
