Best Grilled Beef Ribs With Sweet And Sticky Barbecue Sauce Recipes

EASY GRILLED STICKY RIBS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F (120 degrees C).
• Mix salt, sugar, black pepper, paprika, and garlic powder for dry rub together in a small bowl. Set aside.
• Line a large sheet pan with heavy-duty aluminum foil. Place rack of ribs on the prepared pan, bone side down. Poke all over with a sharp knife. Make shallow slits across at an angle, and then repeat the opposite way; this allows the dry rub to penetrate. Coat on both sides with rub; flip back over, ensuring the bone side is down. Wrap tightly with foil.
• Transfer to the center of the preheated oven and bake for 2 hours. Remove from the oven and let cool to room temperature. Refrigerate until cold and firm, at least 2 hours, up to overnight.
• Preheat a charcoal grill until coals are very ashy and hot.
• Remove from the refrigerator, unwrap, and brush off excess fat. Slice between the bones to separate each rib.
• Combine ketchup, brown sugar, soy sauce, vinegar, oil, and cayenne with a spoon in a bowl for glaze.
• Place ribs on the preheated grill and cook for 2 minutes; flip and brush over glaze. Flip and repeat process until ribs are as caramelized as you prefer, about 10 minutes more.
• Remove to a plate and brush over one more application of glaze. Serve.

Steps:

• 1 If you purchased the ribs in racks, use a chef's knife to cut between the bones and separate the rack into individual ribs. Do not trim the fat from the ribs; it keeps the ribs moist and flavorful during cooking. 2 In a small bowl, stir together the paprika, chili powder, dry mustard, garlic powder, cumin, sage, salt and black pepper. Rub the ribs thoroughly with the mixture until they are evenly coated. Let the ribs stand at room temperature for 30 to 60 minutes before grilling. 3 In a heavy saucepan over medium-low heat, stir together the tomato sauce, ketchup, horseradish mustard, brown sugar, vinegar, garlic, Worcestershire sauce and cayenne. Cook, stirring often, until the sauce has reduced slightly, about 30 minutes. Stir in the salt. Taste and adjust the seasonings with more salt or cayenne. Remove the sauce from the heat. 4 Prepare a charcoal or gas grill with 1 or 2 areas of medium-high heat and 1 area with no heat. (If using charcoal, place a drip pan in the unheated area.) Place a platter near the grill to warm from the heat of the grill. Lightly oil the grill rack. 5 Place the ribs over the hottest part of the grill and cook, using tongs to turn the ribs often, until well browned on all sides, 3 to 5 minutes total. Move the ribs to the unheated portion of the grill and brush them generously with the barbecue sauce. Cover the grill and cook the ribs, turning and basting with sauce about every 5 minutes, until they are crisp and tender, 12 to 15 minutes. To test for doneness, cut into a rib with a paring knife; it should slip through easily and the interior should have no trace of pink. If the ribs are not done, cover the grill and let them cook, undisturbed, for 5 to 7 minutes more and test again. 6 Return the barbecue sauce to the stovetop over medium heat and simmer for at least 5 minutes. Pile the ribs on the warmed platter and serve immediately, passing the barbecue sauce at the table.

• Prepare a grill for medium heat.
• Put the ribs on the grill (reserve the sauce in the pot) and grill, turning occasionally, until caramelized, 8 to 10 minutes. Top with the reserved sauce and serve.
