Winter Ribs Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 250 degrees F (120 degrees C).
• Mix ancho chile powder, white sugar, brown sugar, salt, black pepper, cumin, dry mustard, cayenne pepper, and chipotle pepper in a small bowl until combined.
• Place ribs meat-side down on aluminum foil. Prick back of rib rack several times with a knife.
• Generously apply coating of dry rub to all sides of rib rack.
• With rib rack meat-side down, fold foil around it to create a tight seal. Transfer to sheet pan.
• Bake in preheated oven until tender and cooked through, about 2 hours. Remove and cool 15 minutes.
• Increase oven temperature to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Open foil, drain and discard any accumulated juices and fat. Brush barbeque sauce on all sides of rack.
• Place rack meat-side up and return to oven, leaving foil open. Bake for 10 minutes, remove from oven, and brush another layer of barbeque sauce on meat-side only. Repeat baking and brushing with sauce 4 more times, for a total of 50 minutes baking time.
• Cut rack into individual rib segments and serve with more barbeque sauce.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 275 degrees. Mix seasonings together and rub ribs all over with this mixture. Put them in a roasting pan in one layer. Bake, pouring off accumulated fat every 30 minutes or so, for 2 hours or longer, or until ribs are cooked through and very tender. (If you are in a hurry, cover roasting pan with aluminum foil, which will shorten the cooking time by about a third.)
• When you are ready to eat, roast ribs at 500 degrees for about 10 minutes (or grill them or run them under a broiler), until nicely browned; watch carefully for burning.
