Do You Prefer Dry Rubbed or Saucy Ribs?

ladym33 @ladym33 (10978) • United States 25 Jun 10

I love good ribs preferably pork, and I really like them saucy, but some people prefer to do a dry rub which can be really good as well. How do you like yours saucy or dry rubbed?

thenieruz I prefer dry rubbed (preferrably non-pork) ribs. They're delicious and the only meat I'll eat still on the bone. Now, trying to get the family to eat them dry is another story...

thenieruz Kudos to you for making a stand. Yes I complain when I am treated wrong. Often enough I am told tough luck. Still, complaining has a time and a place and I always make sure it's worth complaining about before going at it.

thenieruz Can't say I tried to hear this, but I have been told by my best friend. It was sweet and disturbing all in the same. I'm not comfortable being "someone's life" because there is much more out there than me. However, I'm fine accepting that perhaps my friend...

thenieruz I used to update a blog on Wordpress but it became a little tedious. Adding images and videos was quirky at best. And many times the images needed some tweaking before it'd appear the way you want it to. Overall I wasn't impressed and won't be updating there...

powermannx @powermannx (450) • United States 14 Jan 10

2009 is now in the past, the challenge of the future depends on how well our U.S. economy will recover from so much economic loss. On the upside, what will you do to make 2010 a prosperous year?

thenieruz I am going to finish what I started. Then I'll see from there but I think that's a good direction to go. Hopefully it'll turn out better than I imagined.

thenieruz I'll admit that I don't even know my own cell phone number, let alone the contacts I have stored in there. If I lost (or had it stolen) or broke my phone, or changed networks, I'd lose all contact info. I figure the really important ones will try to get in...

thenieruz My favorite game is Final Fantasy 10. I was actually a little peeved when they made a direct sequel to it because it just became an estrogen fest. It was a tragedy and tragedies don't have happy endings!
