To oven-steam ribs, place ribs in a large baking pan, fill with about 1 inch of water, cover with aluminum foil and bake for about 50 minutes in a 350-degree oven. The recipe here includes instructions on how to boil ribs before grilling.
A rafter is one of a series of sloped structural members (beams) that extend from the ridge or hip to the wall plate, downslope perimeter or eave, and that are designed to support the roof deck and its associated loads. A pair of rafters is a couple.
Stick framing can also produce more complicated hip, gambrel and mansard roofs or a combination of roof styles. Rafters must be notched on their bottom edges to fit on the wall plates. A birdâs mouth âtriangle shapeâ cut is the standard method of notching a stick-framed rafter to fit on a wall plate.
