Best Barbecue Ribs Ever Recipes

Steps:

• Heat oven to 325°F.
• Wash ribs and pat dry with paper towels. Set on rimmed baking sheet or in a large roasted pan. Place mustard, onion powder, garlic powder, allspice powder, chili powder, cayenne, Lowry's seasoned salt, salt and pepper in a gallon-sized re-closable plastic bag, or a pizza spice shaker container, and shake vigorously to mix well. Pour half seasoned rub mixture onto one side of the ribs and massage into flesh. Turn ribs over and pour the remaining rub mixture onto other side of ribs and massage into flesh. Cover ribs fully with a large sheet of heavy duty tin foil, rolling edges of foil under and into baking sheet to make an air proof seal. I leave them in the frige overnight to merinate well. I don't know if this is what makes them so tender, but they are! Place in oven and cook for 3 hours.
• Remove from oven, carefully unseal foil - keep your hands and face a way from the hot steam. Heat grill to high. Place barbecue sauces, brown sugar, garlic, liquid smoke and cider vinegar into a medium-sized sauce pan, stir to combine. Using a large pastry brush, baste generously with sauce. Place sauce over medium-high heat, bring to a boil, then lower heat to medium and cook for 5 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside. Place ribs on grill and cook, about 4-6 minutes a side, 8-12 minutes total.
• Remove to a cutting board, cut into 2-3 rib portions, place on serving platter and serve with remaining barbecue sauce on the side.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 160C/140C fan/gas 3 and snugly fit the ribs into a roasting tin. Pour over the cola and enough water to cover the ribs, then cover the tin tightly with foil. Roast for 2-3 hrs, turning halfway through, until the ribs are really tender but not falling apart.
• Meanwhile, put all the sauce ingredients in a small saucepan. Gently heat, then bubble for about 2 mins, stirring.
• When the ribs are done, carefully lift each out of the tin and sit on kitchen paper to dry. Tip away the liquid and wipe out the tin. Put the dry ribs back in the tin and coat all over with the sticky sauce. Cover and chill for at least 1 hr to marinate, but better still up to 24 hrs. Can be frozen at this stage.
• Mix the dip ingredients together and chill until ready to serve.
• Heat the barbecue and wait for the flames to die down, or heat oven to 220C/200C/gas 7. Add the ribs (in a roasting tin, if using the oven) and cook for 20 mins, turning occasionally, and basting often with remaining sauce. When ribs are sticky, hot through and crisping on the outside, slice to serve. Scatter with sesame seeds, if you like, and plate up with any remaining sticky sauce, warmed, and the chive dip.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Combine first 5 ingredients in a small bowl. Place each rack of ribs on a double layer of foil; sprinkle rub all over ribs. Wrap racks individually and divide between 2 baking sheets.
• Bake ribs until very tender but not falling apart, about 2 hours for baby backs and 3 hours for spareribs. Carefully unwrap ribs; pour any juices from foil into a 4-cup heatproof measuring cup; reserve juices. Let ribs cool completely. DO AHEAD: Ribs can be baked up to 3 days ahead (the flavor will be more developed, and the cold ribs will hold together better on the grill as they heat through). Cover and chill juices. Rewrap ribs in foil and chill.
• Build a medium-hot fire in a charcoal grill, or heat a gas grill to high. Add broth or water to rib juices, if needed, to measure 1 1/2 cups. Whisk in barbecue sauce to blend.
• Grill ribs, basting with barbecue sauce mixture and turning frequently, until lacquered and charred in places and heated through, 7-10 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board; cut between ribs to separate. Transfer to a platter and serve with additional barbecue sauce.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Cut spareribs into serving size portions, wrap in double thickness of foil, and bake for 1 1/2 hours. Unwrap, and drain drippings. (I usually freeze the drippings to use later in soups.) Place ribs in a large roasting pan.
• In a bowl, mix together brown sugar, ketchup, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, rum, chile sauce, garlic, mustard, and pepper. Coat ribs with sauce and marinate at room temperature for 1 hour, or refrigerate overnight.
• Preheat grill for medium heat. Position grate four inches above heat source.
• Brush grill grate with oil. Place ribs on grill, and cook for 30 minutes, basting with marinade.

Steps:

• Prepare outdoor grill for covered direct grilling over medium heat.
• Prepare Baby Back Ribs:.
• In a small bowl, combine paprika, brown sugar, salt, chili powder, black pepper, cumin, and ground red pepper.
• Pat ribs dry with paper towels.
• Rub spice mixture all over ribs.
• Place 2 racks of ribs side by side in foil cooking bag.
• Place 3 ice cubes under ribs; seal bag.
• Or, place two 30" by 18" sheets of heavy-duty foil on work surface to make a double thickness.
• Place 2 racks of ribs side by side on center of stacked foil.
• Place 3 ice cubes under ribs.
• Bring long sides of foil up and over ribs;.
• Fold several times to seal well, then fold in ends to seal tightly.
• Repeat with 1 more cooking bag or 2 more sheets of foil and remaining ribs and ice cubes.
• Place foil packets on grill rack.
• Cover grill and cook ribs 1 hour, carefully turning packets over with tongs once halfway through grilling.
• While ribs are grilling:.
• Prepare Barbecue Sauce:.
• In 4-quart saucepan, combine all sauce ingredients; heat to boiling over high heat.
• Reduce heat to low and simmer uncovered 30- 40 minutes or until sauce thickens slightly stirring occasionally.
• Makes about 2 1/2 cups.
• When ribs are done, with kitchen shears cut an X in top of each foil packet to let steam escape, then carefully pull back foil to open.
• Remove ribs and place directly on grill rack.
• Cover grill and cook ribs 7 to 10 minutes or until browned, turning over once.
• Brush ribs with some sauce and cook 7 to 10 minutes longer, brushing with some more sauce and turning frequently.
• To serve, cut ribs into 1-rib portions and arrange on platter.
• Pass remaining sauce to serve with ribs.

Steps:

• Soak 2 cups hickory wood chips in water for an hour or so.
• Prepare the grill for indirect cooking, and position a drip pan under the grate. Drop a handful of soaked hickory over coals when ready to barbeque.
• Brush grate lightly with oil. Position ribs on grill directly above the drip pan. Cover with onions. Close the lid, and cook for 1/2 hour. After the first 1/2 hour, brush the ribs liberally with barbeque sauce every 15 to 20 minutes for an hour. Add more coals and/or hickory chips as needed. Carve the ribs, and serve.
