Brown sugar users

Just curious...for those of you that use brown sugar on ribs. Do you use light brown or dark brown? Is there a difference in taste or the way it burns? I have always used light brown but grabbed a bag of dark by accident. Anyway, just wondering what y'all use.

like the brown stuff yself, seems to have more flavor imo. Always add it towards the end or in the sauce that gets glazed toward the end too.

I use dark on occasion. When i use it, i will roll out some foil, put butter on it, put the brown sugar on that, then squirt honey on that, then meat side down and wrap it up. Oh, and rub em with hoochie mama before cookin!!!

I use the Dark myself..think its a bit sweeter and it cooks great on ribs in the foil...

Brown sugar is normal granulated sugar mixed with molasses the difference between light and dark is the amount of molasses.

What he said... we always just keep light on hand and a jar of molases. we have one of those magnets on the fridge door that tells us the substitute for if the recipe calls for dark.
