Apple Barbecued Ribs Recipes

Steps:

• Mix the barbeque sauce and applesauce in bowl. Place ribs on a large sheet of heavy duty aluminum foil, and rub on all sides with the salt, pepper, cayenne pepper, and garlic powder. Pour sauce over ribs to coat. Seal ribs in the foil. Marinate in the refrigerator 8 hours, or overnight.
• Preheat grill for high heat.
• Place ribs in foil on the grill grate, and cook 1 hour. Remove ribs from foil, and place directly on the grill grate. Continue cooking 30 minutes, basting frequently with the sauce, until ribs are done.

Steps:

• Mix rub ingredients and store in air tight container. Recommend making a triple batch so you'll have some for later.
• Remove membrane from bone side of ribs. Rub ribs generously with rub, wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate over night.
• Remove wrap from ribs and bring to room temperature. Re-season with rub.
• Bring grill/smoker up to around 200 degrees F. Using indirect heat, smoke ribs for 5-7 hours. Turn and baste with mop every hour.
• For the finishing sauce, combine all ingredients in a sauce pan and bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer for one hour.
• For the smoke, use apple wood chips soaked in water. Keep the temperature as close to 200 as possible.
• Apply finishing sauce during the last hour--careful not to burn. Ribs are done when about 3/8 inch of bones are exposed and the rib bones come loose from the meat when twisted.
• Remove from heat, re-season with rub mixture, and let sit for at least 30 min prior to cutting into 2-rib portions.

Steps:

• Combine the brown sugar, chili powder, 1 tablespoon salt, 1 teaspoon black pepper, the oregano, cayenne, garlic powder and onion powder in a small bowl and rub the mixture on both sides of the ribs. Cover and refrigerate 1 hour or overnight.
• Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F. In a roasting pan, combine the broth and vinegar. Add the ribs to the pan. Cover with foil and tightly seal. Bake 2 hours. Remove the ribs from the pan and place them on a platter. Pour the liquid from the pan into a saucepan and bring to a boil. Lower the heat to a simmer and cook until reduced by half. Add the barbecue sauce.
• Preheat an outdoor grill to medium high. Put the ribs on the grill and cook about 5 minutes on each side, until browned and slightly charred. Cut the ribs between the bones and toss them in a large bowl with the sauce. Serve hot.

Steps:

• Heat a charcoal grill and prepare for indirect grilling: Bank the coals to one side, leaving the other side empty. Set up a drip pan on the empty side. Let the fire burn down to a low heat (250 degrees F).
• Make the dry rub: Combine the brown sugar, paprika, garlic salt, onion salt, chili powder, cayenne, oregano, cumin and 3/4 teaspoon black pepper in a small bowl. Remove 2 tablespoons of the rub and set aside for the liquid seasoning.
• Prepare the ribs: Working with one rack at a time, slide a paring knife between the bone and the membrane, then pull off the membrane. Generously season the ribs all over with salt. Generously apply the dry rub on both sides.
• Place the ribs bone-side down on the cooler side of the grill over the drip pan. Cover the grill and cook until the meat is well browned, about 2 hours 15 minutes, adding more charcoal as needed. Transfer each rack to a large double layer of foil.
• Make the liquid seasoning: Combine the cherries, apple juice, jalapeño, brown sugar, honey and the reserved 2 tablespoons dry rub in a food processor and liquefy. Measure out 1 cup of the liquid seasoning and set it aside for the glaze. Brush the remaining liquid seasoning on the ribs and tightly wrap in the foil. Return to the cooler side of the grill, cover the grill and cook until the ribs are tender, about 1 more hour.
• Make the glaze: Combine the barbecue sauce with the reserved 1 cup liquid seasoning in a small bowl. Remove the ribs from the grill and unwrap. Brush the glaze on both sides. Return to the grill over direct heat. Cover the grill and cook, turning the ribs halfway through, until caramelized, about 10 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board and let rest 10 minutes before slicing.

Steps:

• Pull the membrane off the back of each slap of ribs. Cut the ribs into serving-size pieces. Place in a large Dutch oven. Add water to cover; bring to a boil. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer for 30 minutes. Drain ribs, and set aside.
• Saute the onion and garlic in oil in a medium saucepan until tender. Stir in the remaining ingredients; bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer, uncovered, for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove the sauce from the heat, and set aside.
• Grill the ribs over low coals for 40 minutes, turning frequently. After they have cooked for 40 minutes, baste with the sauce. Grill an additional 20 minutes or until they reach the desired level of doneness. (I wait until I can pull a bone out). Make sure you turn the ribs often and baste frequently with the sauce.
• Serve the ribs with the remaining sauce.

Steps:

• SPRINKLE RIBS WITH SALT AND PEPPER.
• PLACE IN SLOW COOKER.
• COVER WITH ONION SLICES.
• MIX REMAINING INGREDIENTS; POUR OVER RIBS AND ONION.
• COVER AND COOK ON LOW HEAT SETTING 8-10 HOURS.
• REMOVE RIBS TO WARM PLATTER; KEEP WARM.
• STRAIN JUICES.
• POUR JUICES FROM SLOW COOKER INTO 1 QUART SAUCEPAN.
• HEAT TO BOILING OVER MEDIUM HIGH HEAT; REDUCE HEAT TO MEDIUM.
• COOK ABOUT 5 MINUTES OR UNTIL SAUCE HAS SLIGHTLY THICKENED.
• SERVE SAUCE WITH RIBS.

Steps:

• Cut the ribs into manageable pieces. Place in a large stock pot. Pour apple juice over ribs, cover and simmer for 1 hour. Drain, reserving cooking liquid. Keep ribs warm.
• Strain the liquid. Skim off as much fat as you can from the reserved liquid. Then reduce what remains to about 2 cups in volume.
• Add the remaining ingredients, bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer until the consistency of a thick sauce. Stir often so it doesn't stick to the bottom of the pan. Taste and adjust seasonings.
• Paint sauce on ribs and either run under your over broiler or cook on the barbecue for a few minutes per side to finish. Serve with your favourite potato salad and coleslaw.

Steps:

• Mix the barbecue sauce and applesauce in a bowl. Place ribs on a large sheet of heavy duty aluminum foil, and rub on all side with the salt, black pepper, cayenne pepper, and garlic powder. Pour sauce over ribs to coat. Seal ribs in the foil. Marinate in the refrigerator 8 hours, or overnight.
• Preheat grill for high heat.
• Place ribs in foil on the grill grate, and cook 1 hour. Remove ribs from foil, and place directly on the grill grate. Continue cooking 30 minutes, basting frequently with the sauce, until ribs are done.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine the first 10 ingredients. Pour 1-1/2 cups marinade into a large resealable plastic bag. Add pork; seal bag and turn to coat. Refrigerate 5 hours or overnight. Cover and refrigerate remaining marinade for basting., Prepare grill for indirect heat. Drain pork, discarding marinade in bag. Grill ribs, covered, over indirect medium heat for 10 minutes on each side. Baste with some of the reserved marinade. Grill 20-25 minutes longer or until ribs are tender, turning and basting occasionally. Freeze option: Freeze cooled ribs in heavy-duty foil. To use, partially thaw in refrigerator overnight. Place foil packet on a baking sheet and open packet. Reheat in a preheated 350° oven for 20-30 minutes or until heated through.
