Mybackribs Recipes

Steps:

• With a rack bone side up, and starting at one end, slip a knife tip under the translucent membrane, loosening it from the bone. Once you have lifted enough to get a good grip, grasp the membrane with a paper towel and peel it off the rack (or ask your butcher to do this). Repeat with the remaining rack(s). Cut the rack(s) in half crosswise.
• Stack the ribs in the Instant Pot. Pour in the apple juice and vinegar. Secure the lid and move the Pressure Release to Sealing. Select the Meat/Stew setting and set the cooking time for 20 minutes at high pressure. (For meat-falling-off-the-bone ribs, set the cooking time for 25 minutes.)
• Let the pressure release naturally for 15 minutes. While the pressure is releasing, preheat the oven to 400° F and line a sheet pan with aluminum foil or a silicone baking mat.
• When 15 minutes have passed, move the Pressure Release to Venting to release any remaining steam. Open the pot and, using a pair of tongs, transfer the ribs to the prepared sheet pan. Discard the cooking liquid.
• Brush the ribs on both sides with the barbecue sauce, then bake for about 10 minutes, until the sauce is a caramelized and browned. Remove from the oven, cut the ribs apart, and serve.

Steps:

• To make the Sauce: In a medium saucepan over medium-high, warm the vegetable oil. Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until translucent, 4-5 minutes.
• Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute more.
• Add the remaining sauce ingredients, including Tabasco sauce to taste, and bring to a boil.
• Reduce heat and simmer for about 15 minutes. (It might taste a little vinegarie at first but it won't by the time you use it).
• Set aside.
• Pour some of the sauce in a small bowl to use for basting the ribs.
• Allow the ribs to stand at room temperature for 20-30 minutes before grilling.
• Season with salt and pepper.
• Grill the ribs, rib side down, over Indirect Medium Heat (keep grill at about 325-350 degrees) until the meat is very tender and has pulled back from the ends of the bones, 1 1/2 to 2 hours.
• Turn after the first 30 minutes and again in 30 minutes, then do not turn again.
• During the last 30 minutes of grilling add the soaked hickory chips to the hot coals (if using).
• During the last 30 minutes of grilling time, baste generously with the small bowl of sauce every 5-10 minutes, depending on how much sauce you want on the ribs.
• Serve warm with the remaining sauce on the side.

Steps:

• Wash and dry the ribs. Combine all seasonings in a bowl. Liberally season the ribs with the seasonings. Make sure to rub the seasonings into the meat.
• Cut the garlic bulbs in half and slice the onions thinly. Wash your fresh herbs. In a large roasting pan, line the bottom with some of your onions. Place 2 slabs of the ribs over the onions, bone side down. Rub the ribs with 1 of the cut garlic bulbs, set the garlic cut side down on top of the slab. Place some thyme, oregano, and parsley over each slab. Place the remaining onions on top of herbs. Drizzle with wine and extra-virgin olive oil. Create a second layer of ribs, herbs, wine, extra-virgin olive oil. Allow the ribs to marinate, in the refrigerator, for 24 hours.
• After 24 hours, the ribs are ready for the grill. Preheat a grill so 1 side of the grill is heated and 1 side is not.
• Take the ribs out of the marinade. Place them bone side down over some hot coals. It takes about 30 to 40 minutes to cook the ribs. Alternate your ribs from the hot side of the grill to the cold side. This will allow you to have more control over your cooking. Enjoy!

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• Cut the racks of ribs in half crosswise. Rub the ribs, paying special attention to the meaty side, with 1/2 cup of the sauce. Lay the rib pieces meat side down in an 11 by 13-inch baking dish. The pieces will overlap slightly.
• Cover the dish tightly with aluminum foil and bake until the meat begins to pull away from the ends of the bones and the ribs are just tender, about 1 hour. You can bake the ribs up to a day before and keep them refrigerated. Bring refrigerated ribs to room temperature about 1 hour before you grill them.
• Preheat an outdoor grill to medium-high heat. Grill the ribs, brushing them with about half the remaining sauce, until they're crispy and heated through, about 10 minutes. Move the ribs around as they grill, the sugar in barbecue sauce makes it easy for them to burn. Let the ribs rest for 5 to 10 minutes before cutting them into 1 or 2-bone pieces. Put out the rest of the sauce for dipping or brush it over the ribs.
• Stir all ingredients together in a small bowl until sugar is dissolved. The sauce will keep in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.

Steps:

• Trim the membrane off the back of the ribs and rub ribs all over with spice blend. Cover and refrigerate for 2 to 24 hours. Soak wood chips in water for at least 30 minutes before grilling.
• Prepare an outdoor grill with a medium fire for indirect grilling. Place a drip pan, half-filled with water, under the cooler side of the grill grate. Open bottom vents of the grill.
• Set the ribs over the drip pan. (If you have a rib rack, use it.) Toss 1 cup of the drained wood chips onto the coals and cover the grill. Rotate the lid so that the vent holes are directly over the ribs. Add about 1 cup of hardwood charcoals to the fire about every hour during the cooking time to maintain a medium to medium-low fire (a temperature of about 250 degrees F to 275 degrees F is ideal). After 3 hours the meat should pull back from the bones and will have turned a reddish brown. Baste the ribs with some of the barbecue sauce of your choice and cook over direct heat until lightly glazed. Cut the racks into ribs and serve with extra sauce on the side.
• Whisk paprika, brown sugar, oregano, garlic, ancho powder, salt, and celery salt in a small bowl. Store in an airtight container in a cool, dry place for up to 2 months.
• Makes about 3/4 cup
• Mix brown sugar, oregano, parsley, garlic, onion powder, paprika, thyme, black pepper, salt, celery salt, white pepper, cayenne, and bay leaves in a bowl. Pulse in a spice grinder in two batches to a medium-fine grind. Seal in an airtight container and store in a cool, dry place for up to 2 months.
• Makes 1 cup
• Heat the oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Stir in the garlic, tomato paste, chili powder, paprika, red pepper, allspice, and cloves and cook, stirring, until paste is dark brick red, about 3 minutes. Add the ketchup, water, vinegar, molasses, brown sugar, salt, soy sauce, Worcestershire, mustard, black pepper, and bay leaf. Adjust the heat to maintain a gentle simmer and cook until the flavors come together, about 30 minutes. Remove and discard bay leaf before using.
• Makes about 1 quart
• Split, stem, and seed the chiles. Toast the chiles in a dry skillet over medium-high heat, turning and flattening with a spatula, until fragrant, about 3 minutes. Put the chiles in a heatproof bowl, cover with very hot water, and set aside until soft, about 30 minutes. Drain, reserve soaking liquid, chop chiles roughly, and set aside.
• While the chiles soak, char the onion and garlic in the same dry skillet over medium heat until the onion blackens slightly and garlic softens in the skin, about 8 minutes. Cool, squeeze the garlic out of the skin, and put in a blender with chiles and onion. Puree to a paste, adding soaking liquid as needed (about 3/4 cup) to help the mixture break down.
• Heat the oil in the skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chile mixture and cook, stirring, until thick and fragrant, about 4 minutes. Add the tomato puree, coffee, sugar, 1 tablespoon salt, oregano, cloves, and cumin. Adjust the heat to maintain a gentle simmer and cook, stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened, about 15 minutes.
• Stir in vinegar and season with salt to taste.
• Makes 1 quart

Steps:

• Place ribs and beef broth in a large heavy pot or Dutch oven, and add enough water to fully cover ribs. Simmer over low heat for about 1 hour. Once tender, remove and set aside.
• Preheat the grill to medium heat. In a medium bowl, combine barbeque sauce and honey. Baste ribs generously with sauce and grill for about 4 minutes on each side or until desired degree of doneness.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine the brown sugar, chipotle chile powder, salt, onion powder, garlic powder, seafood seasoning and black pepper.
• Place each slab of ribs on a piece of aluminum foil large enough to fold over and seal, then place on a baking sheet. Do not seal the ribs in the foil yet (see Cook's Note). Generously sprinkle the dry rub on both sides of the ribs. Place in the refrigerator, meat-side down and uncovered, for at least 1 hour. Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F.
• In a small bowl, combine the apple cider, apple cider vinegar, maple syrup, Worcestershire and minced garlic. Pour half the liquid over each slab and tightly seal each in the aluminum foil, crimping the edges to make a packet.
• Transfer the foil packets and baking sheet to the oven and bake until the meat is tender and starts to pull away from the bones, about 2 hours.
• Remove the sheet pan from the oven. Carefully open the aluminum packets and pour the braising liquid into a small saucepan. Bring the liquid to a simmer over medium heat until it becomes a thick and syrupy glaze, about 4 minutes.
• While the braising liquid reduces, line a baking sheet with foil and gently transfer the ribs to it. Position a rack on the top level of the oven and preheat the broiler.
• Using a pastry brush, generously brush the ribs with about half the glaze. Place the ribs under the broiler for about 1 minute. Brush with the remaining glaze and return to the broiled until charred in spots, about 1 minute more. Slice each rack between the bones into 2-rib portions and serve.

Steps:

• Rub the ribs with seasoned salt (or your favorite spice) on all sides.
• Place in long casserole meat side down and place lemon on top (evenly spaced - not overlapping).
• Fill casserole with about an inch of water.
• Cover with tin foil and bake at 325 degrees for about 2 hours periodically checking to make sure there is enough water and that they are not falling off the bone to the extent that they cannot go on the BBQ.
• Baste with your favorite BBQ sauce and grill on your BBQ for about 5 minutes per side.
• Serve (with plenty of napkins) but no knife.

Steps:

• Combine the dry rub ingredients. Rub into the ribs, cover & refrigerate for 2 hours.
• Combine cooking stock ingredients in a saucepan and bring to a boil. Place the ribs in a baking pan and pour the stock all over.
• Cover and bake at 350 degrees for approximately 3 hours. Remove cover and continue baking until most of the liquid has evaporated.

Steps:

• Tear off 4 pieces of aluminum foil big enough to enclose each portion of ribs.
• Spray each piece of foil with vegetable cooking spray.
• Brush the ribs liberally with barbecue sauce and place each portion in its own piece of foil.
• Wrap tightly and refrigerate for at least 8 hours, or overnight.
• Preheat oven to 300°F (150°C).
• Bake ribs wrapped tightly in the foil at 300°F (150°C) for 2 1/2 hours.
• Remove from foil and add more sauce, if desired.

Steps:

• PREHEAT grill to medium OR oven to 450°F.
• CENTER half of ribs in single layer on each sheet of Reynolds Wrap Heavy Duty Aluminum Foil. Combine brown sugar and seasonings; rub over ribs, turning to coat evenly.
• BRING up foil sides. Double fold top and one end to seal packet. Through open end, add 1/4 cup water. Double fold remaining end, leaving room for heat circulation inside. Repeat to make two packets.
• TO GRILL: Place rib packets in covered grill and grill 45 to 60 minutes. Remove foil; place ribs on grill
• BRUSH ribs with barbecue sauce. CONTINUE GRILLING 10 to 15 minutes, brushing with sauce and turning every 5 minutes.
• TO BAKE: Place rib packets on a cookie sheet and bake in oven 45 to 60 minutes. Remove foil; place ribs on broiler pan. BRUSH ribs with barbecue sauce. BROIL 4 to 5 inches from broiler, 10 to 15 minutes, brushing with sauce and turning every 5 minutes.
