Best Dry Rub Baby Back Ribs Recipes

THE NEELEY'S KANSAS CITY BABY BACK RIBS DRY RUB AND COOK METHOD

Steps:

• Mix all the dry rub ingredients together.
• Rub desired amount onto a rack of baby back ribs.
• Cover with plastic wrap and let sit in refrigerator for 24 hours before grilling.
• Heat your charcoal grill and prepare it to use your smoker attachment. If you do not have a smoker (we don't) just situate the charcoals to one side of the grill.
• When grill is heated and the flames go away place rack of ribs, skin side up, on the grill on the opposite side that the charcoals are on. This makes for cooking with indirect heat.
• Cook ribs on grill for 5 or 6 hours, turning and basting with your favorite BBQ sauce (ours is Sweet Baby Rays hickory and brown sugar) every 30 minutes. Temperature of grill should be around 225 degrees.

ASIAN DRY RUB BABY BACK PORK RIBS

Steps:

• 1. Cut the ribs into individual ribs and place them on a flat work surface covered with wax paper. Coat with a bit of olive oil (about 1 tablespoon) and season both sides with sea salt and pepper to taste. Mix all of the remaining spices together in a small bowl and rub the spice blend on all sides of the ribs until evenly covered. Place the ribs in a well-sealed plastic bag and refrigerate for at least 2 to 3 hours (overnight is best). 2. Remove the ribs from the fridge about 15 to 20 minutes before you want to roast them, and bring to room temperature. Line a metal baking sheet with aluminum foil and place the ribs on the foil. 3. Set oven to anywhere between 400 to 425° F and roast the ribs until golden brown and cooked through (the time will vary depending on the heat of your oven and the thickness of the ribs, but start checking around 40 minutes). For crispier ribs, place them under the broiler a minute or two before they're finished. Remove from oven to cool and serve.

SWEET DRY-RUB BABY BACK RIBS - 6-QT ELECTRIC PRESSURE COOKER

Steps:

• RUB:.
• Combine all Rub ingredients in a medium bowl.
• RIBS:.
• Using a full cooking sheet, prepare ribs by removing membrane that covers the inside part of the ribs. Also trim off excess fat, if any. (Check YouTube for instructive videos.).
• Generously coat both sides of both racks of ribs.
• In 6-quart or larger electric pressure cooker, place roasting rack in inner pot. Pour in Coca Cola. Place each rack of ribs vertically, with meaty side out, and meatier edge on top. (A 6-quart P.C. should accommodate 3 racks, and an 8-quart P.C. should handle 4 racks.).
• Feel free to sprinkle rest of rub on ribs.
• Put inner pot into Pressure Cooker base.
• Secure lid.
• INSTANT POT: Select MEAT/STEW setting, and increase time to 30 minutes. When cooking has completed, press Off, and unplug. Allow pressure to release naturally (or at least 12 minutes before venting).
• OTHER ELECTRIC PRESSURE COOKER: Cook on HIGH pressure for 30 minutes, and allow pressure to release naturally.
• STOVE-TOP P.C.: Please consult your manual. These normally cook at 15 psi instead of 11 psi attained by electric pressure cookers, so cooking times and Natural Pressure Release times will both be shorter. You will have to hang around to make sure the stove-top pressure cooker maintains the right pressure, however.
• Once pressure cooker has released its pressure, remove the lid. Carefully remove the ribs with tongs. (I move the ribs to a colander to drain as I normally cook them ahead up to this point.).
• OPTIONAL: Strain the cooking liquid and refrigerate, then remove the top fat layer. It would make a killer marinade for a rump roast. If you don't like that option, discard the cooking liquid as you see fit.
• FINISHING:.
• OVEN: Set to BROIL. Put racks meaty side up and glaze with BBQ sauce with a silicone basting brush. Broil for 2-5 minutes or until heated through. If you like, baste again and broil some more.
• GRILL: Prepare grill. On BBQ mesh grate, place rib racks meaty side up and glaze with BBQ sauce with a silicone basting brush. Heat through. Baste again and heat some more if you wish.

ZELDA HOPKINS DRY RUB BABY BACK RIBS

Steps:

• 1. Rub liquid smoke over rack of ribs.
• 2. Mix all spice ingredients into a small bowl & stir together to mix. Rub spice mixture evenly over the ribs. COVER AND REFRIGERATE RIBS FOR AT LEAST 4 HOURS. or up to 24 hours.
• 3. Preheat oven to 225 degrees F. Place the ribs in a roasting pan. Cover with aluminum foil for 3 hours and 45 minutes, then remove foil and allow to continue cooking during last 15 minutes of baking time.
• 4. Remove from oven, cut into serving size pieces, and serve immediately. Note to my version I added 1 tablespoon of granulated garlic, and 1 1/2 teaspoons of granulated onion powder, but that was my personal preferance.
• 5. PLEASE NOTE:Personally I like to REMOVE the thin shiny membrane tissue on the underside of the rib first before seasoning, by placing the tip of the knife underneath the edge of the bone, and then grab with fingers to remove it, this allows the seasoning to penetrate the inside of the meat much better.
