BBQ RIBS DRY RUB



BBQ Ribs Dry Rub image

This is a dry rub I've experimented with for a while. I put this on a couple racks of Pork ribs, marinaded overnight then cooked slow in my smoker. Wow did they turn out great! Wife and kids loved them. I put a homemade BBQ sauce on one rack and none on the other. Both were great but I think the one without sauce was better. Though this was cooked in a smoker, it could also be done in the oven or BBQ.

Categories     Pork

Time 4h15m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 -2 pork spare rib racks
1 tablespoon Season-All salt
1 tablespoon kosher salt
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 teaspoon pepper
2 tablespoons chili powder
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
2 teaspoons garlic powder
2 teaspoons onion powder
1/2 teaspoon ground mustard
1 teaspoon paprika
3 cups apple juice

Steps:

  • Mix together dry ingredients.
  • Rub liberally all over the ribs on both sides. (For more flavor penetration, pull off membrane from the bone side of ribs).
  • Cover with plastic wrap or vacuum seal bag and place in the refrigerator overnight.
  • Heat smoker/cooker to at least 250°F and keep between 250-300°F.
  • Pour 2 cups of the apple juice in water pan to steam the ribs with.
  • Add soaked hardwood chips or smoking wood of your choice to the smoker.
  • Amount of smoke is up to you.
  • After about 3 hours, internal temperature of the meat should be around 170°F In order to make the meat a bit more tender, wrap the ribs in foil and spray or drizzle some remaining apple juice on the ribs, closing the foil around them until desired tenderness is achieved. Don't drown the ribs in juice but moisten them, about another hour or so.
  • If sauce is desired, mop it on the ribs the last 30 minutes or so of cooking.

DRY RUB FOR SPICY BBQ RIBS



Dry Rub for Spicy BBQ Ribs image

After trying a few different recipes for a dry rub, we came up with our own version. We like more spicy than sweet.

Provided by DeeDee

Categories     Pork

Time 1h30m

Yield 2-4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 tablespoons brown sugar
1 tablespoon seasoning salt
2 tablespoons chili powder
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/2 teaspoon rosemary (crushed)
1/2 teaspoon thyme
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon dry mustard
1 full pork back rib

Steps:

  • Wash rack of ribs, remove membrane on back, and pat dry with paper towel. You can either leave as a rack and thread onto a spit or cut into 2-3 rib sections.
  • Mix all remaining ingredients until well blended. Rub the mix over both sides of ribs until it's all used up. I sometimes double the recipe to get a really good coating. You can either put in fridge overnight or grill at 350 F right away on bbq over indirect heat. The bbq acts more like an oven this way. The sugar will burn if you grill over direct flame.
  • They will take an hour to cook through.

SPICEJUNKIE'S BBQ DRY RUB NO.14



SpiceJunkie's BBQ dry rub No.14 image

I made this rub for my daughters 14th birthday, which is why I called it BBQ dry rub No.14. It gives pork a nice sweet flavor that goes well with all the other spices. This rub has a mild flavor and will not burn sensitive pallets. The light brown sugar gives a gentle sweetness to offset the other spices and is great on ribs or pork shoulder. For ribs sprinkle salt and pepper and refrigerate overnight. Larger cuts of meat can use more. For heat lovers, add 1 tablespoon cayenne pepper (or any amount you like).
