Tsr Version Of Chilis Grilled Baby Back Ribs By Todd Wilbur Recipes

Steps:

• Turn the ribs bone-side up. Slip a paring knife between the thin membrane and the bone to loosen, then pull off the membrane. Mix the brown sugar, paprika, steak seasoning, cumin and oregano in a small bowl; rub all over the ribs. Place on a baking sheet, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 6 hours or overnight.
• Preheat a grill to medium high and prepare for indirect grilling: For a gas grill, turn off one or two of the center burners and reduce the remaining burners to medium low. On a charcoal grill, bank the coals to the sides, leaving the center open; set up a drip pan to avoid flare-ups.
• Oil the grill grates. Place the ribs bone-side down, overlapping slightly if needed, on the cooler part of the grill (indirect heat). Cover and cook, rotating the rib racks once, until the meat is tender and pulls away from the bones, about 2 hours to 2 hours 15 minutes.
• Mix the honey, vinegar and a pinch each of salt and pepper in a small bowl. Transfer the ribs to direct heat. Brush with the honey mixture and continue to grill, uncovered, brushing with the honey mixture once more, until glazed, 5 to 10 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board and cut into ribs.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°.
• Cut the rib slabs in half, leaving 6 to 8 ribs per section. In a large roasting pan, arrange the ribs evenly, then add the water. Cover the pan tightly with a lid or foil to prevent steam from escaping. Bake for 3 hours.
• About 2 hours into the baking time, make the sauce. In a large saucepan, combine all the sauce ingredients. Simmer over low heat for 1 hour, stirring occasionally.
• Prepare the coals in a barbecue. Remove the ribs from the roasting pan. Discard the water.
• Cover the ribs with the sauce, saving about 1 1/2 cups of the sauce for later use at the table. Grill the ribs on the barbecue for about 5 minutes per side, or until slightly charred.
• Serve with the remaining sauce and lots of paper towels or moist towelettes.
• ***ALTERNATE SLOW COOKER DIRECTIONS: Place the ribs in a slow cooker, pouring the sauce over. Let cook on low for 6 to 8 hours or on high for 3 to 4 hours until the meat is very tender.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 300°F (150°C).
• Cut each full rack of ribs in half, so that you have 4 half racks.
• Sprinkle salt and pepper (more pepper than salt), and 1 tablespoon chili pepper over meat.
• Wrap each half rack in aluminum foil.
• Bake for 2 1/2 hours.
• Meanwhile, heat oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat.
• Cook and stir the onions in oil for 5 minutes.
• Stir in water, tomato paste, vinegar, brown sugar, honey, and Worcestershire sauce.
• Season with 2 teaspoons salt, 1/4 teaspoon black pepper, liquid smoke, whiskey, garlic powder, paprika, onion powder, dark molasses, and 1/2 tablespoon ground chili pepper.
• Bring mixture to a boil, then reduce heat.
• Simmer for 1 1/4 hours, uncovered, or until sauce thickens.
• Remove from heat, and set sauce aside.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat.
• Remove the ribs from the oven, and let stand 10 minutes.
• Remove the racks from the foil, and place on the grill.
• Grill the ribs for 3 to 4 minutes on each side.
• Brush sauce on the ribs while they're grilling, just before you serve them (adding it too early will burn it).
