Thank you for your input back in August about the grill. I did get the rig you suggested for my partner’s bday & we’ve been working on perfecting our ribs. R side is grill cooked only, L side is pressure cooked & finished on the grill. The R side ones look better, but we’ll see about tenderness as it’s hard to improve on pressure cooked. I’m decent at working w/the psyche, but grilling is still a mystery!
Thanks again for generously sharing information!

Both look great. Which did you prefer?
So…neither. I really want to figure out how to meld them together. Hubs liked all grilled because the fat was gone (but they were drier). I like the pressure cooked/grilled because the meat literally falls off the bone. Gristle es no bueno & pressure cooking melts it away.
So I’m intending to find a way to create more crispy edges (or even bark!!) on the pressure cooked/grill finished, but haven’t made the intuitive leap to get there.
And I’m seriously open to suggestions. 🍖
@ATXJane I would suggest pressure cooking and then finishing on the grill with sauce and high heat. The crispy bits come from caramelized sugars.
Or next level is the smoker.

With you on the high heat finish, but be careful not to burn sweet sauces by cooking too long. You can get crispy bits without adding sugar. My ribs get a serious bark with a dry rub that has zero sugar.
@voltronic We do as well, but only in the smoker.
