FOOLPROOF RIBS WITH BARBECUE SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a sheet pan with aluminum foil.
• Place the ribs on the sheet pan meat-side up and sprinkle them with 2 teaspoons salt and 1 teaspoon pepper. Pour the barbecue sauce generously on each rack and cover the ribs loosely with aluminum foil. Bake for 1 1/2 hours for baby backs and 1 3/4 hours for St. Louis ribs, until the meat is very tender when tested with a fork. As soon as the ribs are out of the oven, spread them generously with additional barbecue sauce. Grill right away or refrigerate to grill later.
• About 40 minutes before you want to serve, heat a charcoal grill with a layer of hot coals or heat a gas grill to medium-high heat. After the charcoal turns gray, brush the cooking grate with oil to keep the ribs from sticking. Place the ribs on the grill ribs-side down, put the lid on top (be sure both vents are open!) and grill for 5 minutes. Turn the ribs meat-side down, put the lid back on and grill for another 4 to 5 minutes, until nicely browned. Place on a cutting board and cover tightly with aluminum foil and allow the ribs to rest for 10 minutes. Cut into ribs and serve hot with extra barbecue sauce on the side.
• Heat the oil in a large saucepan over low heat, add the onions and cook for 10 to 15 minutes, until the onions are translucent but not browned. Add the garlic and cook for one more minute. Add the tomato paste, vinegar, honey, Worcestershire sauce, mustard, soy sauce, hoisin sauce, chili powder, cumin and pepper flakes.
• Bring to a boil, then lower the heat and simmer uncovered for 30 minutes. Use immediately or pour into a container and refrigerate for several weeks.

BAKED BABY BACK RIBS

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.

THE EASIEST WAY TO MAKE GREAT BBQ RIBS RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Make the smoke bombs: Add the wood chips to a bowl and cover with water. Let soak for 1 hour, then drain. Place 1 cup of the damp wood chips on a piece of aluminum foil and fold into a packet. Poke multiple holes in the top with a toothpick or fork. Repeat with the remaining wood chips, creating 4 packets total.
• Make the sauce: Add the ketchup, brown sugar, molasses, apple cider vinegar, Worcestershire, salt, pepper, and smoked paprika to a small pot over medium heat, whisking to combine. Once the sauce begins to boil, reduce heat to low and simmer for 15 minutes. Remove from the heat and let cool to room temperature.
• Make the rub: In a medium bowl, whisk together the brown sugar, salt, pepper, cumin, onion powder, paprika, cayenne, ground mustard, and garlic powder.
• On a large cutting board, pat the ribs dry with paper towels. If necessary, remove the membrane on the bone-side of the ribs by using a paring knife to gently loosen and pulling it up in one sheet.
• Generously season the ribs all over with the dry rub.
• Wrap the ribs in aluminum foil until completely covered.
• Preheat the grill to 300°F (150°C) with the lid closed.
• Place the foil-wrapped ribs over indirect heat and close the lid. Cook for 2½ hours, until the meat is tender and starting to pull away from the bone, flipping every 30 minutes.
• Remove the ribs from the grill and let rest for 10 minutes. Meanwhile, carefully remove the grates and place the smoke bombs over the flames. Close the lid and let smoke build up for 10 minutes.
• Unwrap the ribs and discard the foil.
• Baste one side of the ribs with the sauce and place directly on the grill, sauce side down. Baste the other side, now facing up. Continue to flip and baste every 5 minutes for 15 minutes total.
• Remove the ribs from the grill and serve with extra barbecue sauce.
• Enjoy!
