This video gave me the idea to do ribs on my kettle on the elevated racks over hot charcoal (vents wide open top and bottom flipping every 20 mins). They get done in about an hour and almost taste like pork chops. I've done them a few times to switch it up and really like them. Thanks for the inspiration Joe!
Hi Joe - Those were some good looking grilled ribs. Many years ago I started out my bbq life grilling ribs & chicken but I wasn’t very good at it. The outcome was more of a burnt offering to the gods. Understanding your grill, positioning your coals & the timing of turning your meat makes all the difference. Great job!
I think we all started like that and as you mentioned, it wasn't good in the beginning. I never used to use a thermometer when I grilled. It was ready when it looked ready.🤣 Thanks for watching Mark.👍🏼
Did over the fire direct ribs last weekend for the first time on my Weber kettle, they were GREAT! Rubbed with SPG/paprika, flipped every ten minutes and basted with Wishbone Italian dressing the last two turns.
I smoked 3 slabs of ribs on the 4th. I have an HBT smoker and smoked them for 2 and half hours and that was during a heavy rain and they came out great. I cannot understand smoking ribs for 5 hours. My temp was 275.
Use a rib rack and go 375-400 on a Weber kettle on indirect heat and avoid that char you’re seeing. You can do 45 min then go direct to slightly char over the dying coals .
Depends on what the goal is. If you want smoked flavor, you smoke them long & slow. Else... grill them directly over coals as shown here in this video.
My dad has always grilled his ribs hot and fast and they are delicious. It's not necessary to smoke them for hours and hours if you know what you're doing
@@socratese5 Over medium flames for 15 minutes turning them every 5 minutes just to get a good sear on the outside. Then finish them off over indirect heat for another 35-45 minutes. They won't be falling off the bone. They will have a little pull to them but that's how I prefer them
I watch these guy cooking ribs 8, 9, or 10 hours and my comment always is, WHAT? I cook great ribs on a gas grill in about 2 hours, and spend the rest of my day with a beer and a babe.
Years ago, before I had a smoker I always grilled ribs and that's not an unusual time. That's just the difference between a direct heat source and an offset heat source. Truth is that they were probably done earlier than that. But I used to grill mine until they were brown and then sauce them and remove once that had caramelized. That usually took about an hour total. Hell, even after I built my first offset smoker I still grilled ribs and steaks and smoked most everything else. Grilled ribs are awesome! But I smoke them now simply because I like them better smoked. But if I were in a hurry I wouldn't have a problem grilling them. Those look tasty!
I've been trying to cook my ribs like this. This is how I ate them as a child. Do the briquettes have to be completely white before I lay the ribs over the coals?
Smokin' Joe's Pit BBQ I have to tell you...my wife and boys liked it this way much better than my smoked ribs!!! They came out great!!! Thank you again my friend!!!
Louis Berry I think the kettle gets just as hot. I’ll probably use a good brand of lump charcoal and cover the bottom grate. You don’t want it too hot, cuz they’ll just burn anyway. I’ll prob add a wood chunk or chips too for more flavor.
Smokin' Joe's Pit BBQ I tried it yesterday and they turned out very tough. It took about an hour and meat temp was 200+. I don’t think at the grill it was even close to being 800 degrees. I turned them often so the ribs wouldn’t burn. Yours looked great, mine were a bust. I had high hopes. Not sure what I did wrong.
Because of you this grill has been listed as one of my options, does the heat travel under the ribs towards the left side of the grill then over towards the exhaust like an offset smoker?
Joe, I know that you and a certain other YTer have a debate about this. I believe you can do this. Back in the days of the Great West Rib Shoot out, they would cook em and turn em, cook em and turn em and sauce em and burn em . Beautiful racks! Great job Joe !
Smokin' Joe's Pit BBQ can’t wait to try it out. Cool videos you have on here. Going to have to head your way one of these days and try some of your brisket out. Always looks perfect 😎
Can you do a video of grilling ribs on a Weber Kettle? A lot of people claim you can't direct grill ribs, it has to be low and slow in order to be tender. I think that is false. Yours looked tender. Growing up, I've seen people direct grilling ribs to perfection without burning them whereas they are tender and not over or undercooked. Do you have a method using charcoal briquettes on a Weber Kettle for direct grilled ribs? What would be the ideal temp for grilling ribs on if you have a Weber Kettle?
Hello shawn, you can cook them on a Weber kettle too. I would put one layer of charcoal on the grate if you wanted to direct grill them. Using the Slow and Sear is a better method but it can be done. 👍🏼
@@SmokinJoesPitBBQ Great video and tips! I tried these on a Weber kettle today and they came out pretty good. Used about half the kettle with one layer of coals. Since this was my first time trying this I kept the temp about 300. Next time I will try to keep the temp a little lower, ribs came out great but had more charr then I would have liked. Great video and thanks again.
People have forgotten their roots. human have ate fast grilled ribs longer than there have been gate keepers to "properly grilled ribs". I love the flavor of quality pork than I do smoke.
Nothing wrong with hot and fast! I’ve grill ribs for years..and with the addition of our own concoction of BBQ sauce I’ve had people standing in line to eat my ribs. Especially when you are trying to entertain.
Awesome looking ribs, man! The Dawgfatha recommended your channel and since I’m trying to learn everything I can about good bbq, it just made sense for me to come over and check it out. I immediately subscribed! Great job and I’m looking forward to learning a great deal more from you. Thanks dude! 👍👍
Hey Joe!...... those are some mighty fine looking Grilled Ribs well done my Brother as we say in Trinidad slang ribs in a quick LOL. Great content as always . You and the family take care and stay safe out there. Cheers!
Im telling ya...this is the most popular method when you're trying to feed a lot of people in the backyard...minus the giant smoker. They will lick their fingers the same as 10 hr ribs
I was always under the impression that ribs, beef or pork, are brought up to over two hundred degrees to break up the inter-connective tissue and make them super easy to pull apart. But that this process had to be done slowly at a low temp like 275. Grilling ribs quickly directly over coals us no different than grilling a pork chop. So why 200+ degrees? Why not 165?
Not true - grills can easily get that hot. Just watched another fast and hot rib video and the guy had his grill at 700. His ribs were done in under an hour
I don`t know why you would cut off the end of the rack and trim all of the fat ,that`s flavor and moisture. If smoking them, maybe trim a little,but never when grilling. As for using a rub, never when grilling. Just keep it simple and it will be just fine, salt, pepper, garlic powder and onion powder.The heat and smoke will do the rest.
Hot and fast is SO underrated.
I love it for ribs and chicken. 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻

Yes sir Ace! I couldn't believe how fast they cooked. 🤘
@@SmokinJoesPitBBQ I just did this yesterday, its turn out really good, 1 hours, and the ribs tasted really good, I might do this from now on.
I’ve been doing this for years. My ribs are always tender and full of flavor. No fighting temps, wrapping, then back on the grill.
Me too
Depends on what the goal is. If you want smoked flavor, you smoke them long & slow. Else... grill them directly over coals as shown here in this video.

That is the way that it was when I grew up .
Hey Joe , Nicely Done . Out On The Island Of Guam and In The Philippines , Ribs And Chicken Are All Done Grilled . We Used A Marinade Vice Rubs .
Very nice! I love the Island way of cooking. Thanks for watching Ole Vet!🇺🇸
Hey Joe, unexpected process. One hour, great. I am always looking for something new, this is new. Thank you.
Thanks Danson. I was expecting a couple of hours but not 1. Thanks for watching.👍🏼

There probably nasty tho 🤡
So is his babe
I do the same. Was spending around 7 hours smoking ribs a lot. Now I get the same results in 2 as well on a grill using wood chips.
Thats one of the most interesting styles of charcoal grill I have ever seen. Ribs looked great!
Thank you! This is a Yoder Flattop Flattop savage cooking machine!🤘
WOW!!! Man I gotta try that. Definitely something that I have never done, but I love this idea for when you don't have 5-6 hours
I know right. I could come home from work and still cook dinner!👍🏼😁

I hear you Russell. I love smoked ribs too but in a pinch, grilled ribs it is!🤘
Those ribs look amazing. I always love a good rack of ribs and it's a bonus that they cooked as fast as they did. Great work!
Love them char grilled ribs on my Yoder Flattop too. Soooo darn good.
If you think about it....its just like grilling a pork chop? They look delicious!! Great job Joe 👏🏾
Yup, just a little bit tougher meat but there was nothing though about these bones.🤘
YES, you CAN grill ribs!!! LOVE IT!!!! lol
Awesome concept Joe! Was going to smoke ribs today, but have Fogo and will be grilling them. Thank you for the video!
Nice Michael! That Fogo charcoal really leaves a great flavor on BBQ. 👍🏼
@@SmokinJoesPitBBQ Yes it does! Their Brazilian charcoal has a really unique flavor too.
Just in time for summer grilling where the company wants food fast! Thanks Joe.
Yeah buddy, 1 hour some some tasty ribs is plenty fast.🤘
I've been trying to cook my ribs like this. This is how I ate them as a child. Do the briquettes have to be completely white before I lay the ribs over the coals?
In between works best. 💪
@@SmokinJoesPitBBQ Do I open the lower vents halfway or what?
@@GriffonRed yes, that will create more air flow.
@@SmokinJoesPitBBQ Sorry to ask so many questions. I tried cooking ribs directly over the fire and I ended up burning the ribs.
What kind of Grill is thar? Or was it special made the way you wanted it?
Joe, this is a great recipe. I love quick ribs and have done them in the oven. Nice job buddy.
Thanks Tommy! Buddy, these ribs were phenomenal and ready in 1 hour is savage!🤘
@@SmokinJoesPitBBQ what kind of grill is that? Or you had it special made?
Thank you Joe! I usually do a modified 3-2-1 method on my smoker but I am going to try hot and fast on my Weber tonight! Thanks!
Nice! It's a totally different cook and you have to keep your eyes on the ribs. Thanks for watching.👍

@@monkabuda my wife and daughter really liked these better too. This is definitely a great way to do them.🤘

Just curious how as the kettle doesn’t get that hot right or maybe just doesn’t gauge it? I would like to try it also.
Louis Berry I think the kettle gets just as hot. I’ll probably use a good brand of lump charcoal and cover the bottom grate. You don’t want it too hot, cuz they’ll just burn anyway. I’ll prob add a wood chunk or chips too for more flavor.
Yes sir Katz. You can do it in the Kettle but lay a flat bed of coals so that it doesn't flare up. Wait until the coals or char wood is ashed over. 👍🏼

What is the flavor profile compared to smoked ribs? Which do you prefer personally?
Where did you get your custom wood cutting board?
I’ve got one rack of ribs that I hate to sit there all day long and smoke one hour got me sold
Super quick and tasty too. Thanks for watching Shane!🤘
I use to grill my ribs all the time, and I spray them down with vinegar to keep the flames down
Excellent video Joe. I gotta cook some ribs like that!!
It's crazy how fast these cooked and the flavor was spot on. Thanks Eric!👍🏼
You ROCK Joe!!!!! That bark looks like absolute perfection! And you’re so right - sharp knives make such a difference! 🙌🥰🔥
I agree with you on the grilling vs smoking ribs
Excellent looking ribs! I've never tried grilling them. Tomorrow I'm going to do a test on on my Weber kettle rotisserie.
That was very interesting Joe. I will have to try this method sometime. They looked delicious
Thanks Mike. It's crazy how fast they were done. Plus still really tender and they tasted really good too.👍🏼
Nice video brother. This is pretty much the method that I use to cook my ribs. It definitely yields great results.
What temperature was the grill when you put the ribs on there?
It was literally over 600°
@@SmokinJoesPitBBQ good way to start that bark. -thank you very much!
Joe, I know that you and a certain other YTer have a debate about this. I believe you can do this. Back in the days of the Great West Rib Shoot out, they would cook em and turn em, cook em and turn em and sauce em and burn em . Beautiful racks! Great job Joe !

Hot and fast temperature is considered what temperature?
How hot did you pre heat your grill to?
I didn't measure it but it's hot!
I like that pit. What temp were you running there?
They look amazing
Mighty fine looking ribs. I used to cook them that way. Sure can be fast, but you do have to watch them. 🤙✌🤟🖖🇺🇸
Yes sir David, that's the trick, you have to watch them because they will burn up on you. Thanks for watching.👍🏼
I set my box to 800 when I am cleaning the oven! Jeez! Love the one hour grilling.

Grilled chicken and ribs done right beat smoked every time imo. Just something about that fat smoke if you know you know.
