Cooking the ribs in foil assures that your meat will be well cooked without the flare-ups that causes burning so easily when grilling fatty meats like ribs. Be careful when removing the meat from the foil. Often there will be a puddle of melted fat in the foil that can cause serious burns if you spill it on yourself. Take your time and use caution.
