How to Baste Ribs Without a Basting Brush
Share
Basting ribs shouldn't mean a sticky brush, a bowl of sauce and a mess on the grill. Here's how to get sauce on your ribs, wings and chicken the easy way.
The old way: brush, bowl and cleanup
Most people pour sauce into a bowl, dip a basting brush, carry it to the grill and drip sauce all the way there. Then the brush sits in the sink, sticky, waiting to be scrubbed. It works, but it's slow and messy.
The easy way: the bottle is the brush
Stank Daddy's Barbecue Sauce comes in a squeeze bottle with the basting brush built right in. No bowl, no separate brush, no sticky cleanup.
- Open the Flow Control™ on the brush.
- Squeeze the bottle to feed sauce straight into the bristles.
- Brush it right onto the ribs.
- Close the Flow Control™ and set the bottle down. Ready for the next coat.
When to sauce your ribs
Most sauces have sugar in them, and sugar burns over high heat. That's why many pitmasters wait to sauce until the last part of the cook, then add a thin coat or two so it turns sticky and glazed instead of black. With the brush built into the bottle, adding another quick coat takes seconds.
Tips for better basting
- Go thin: a few thin coats beat one heavy one.
- Squeeze only what you need: less waste, less drip.
- Keep it at the grill: no running back and forth to the kitchen for the bowl.
- Works on more than ribs: wings, chicken, brisket, burgers and pork chops too.
