FAQs
1. Can I use bone-in or boneless ribs for this recipe?
Bone-in ribs are highly recommended for this recipe as they provide better flavor and texture. Boneless ribs will cook much faster, but may be drier.
2. How long do the ribs need to marinate?
A minimum of 4 hours is ideal, but overnight for even better flavor infusion is best. The longer the better!
3. What can I substitute for the voodoo seasoning?
While the voodoo seasoning blend adds a unique depth of flavor, you can substitute it with a Cajun seasoning or a blend of paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne pepper, and black pepper to taste.
