NANA'S FALL-OFF-THE-BONE RIBS AND "BARB"-ECUE SAUCE



Nana's Fall-Off-The-Bone Ribs and

This slow-roasted then grilled recipe for fall-off-the-bone pork ribs is famous in my husband Eric's family. His grandma, "Nana," has been making these ribs every 4th of July for decades. Her "Barb"-ecue sauce recipe (her name is Barbara) is absolutely incredible!

Time 4h45m

Number Of Ingredients 11

heavy foil
7 pounds racks of ribs
Applewood rub (or your favorite dry rub)
2 cups ketchup
2/3 cup Worcestershire sauce
2 teaspoons chili powder
2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoons celery seed
2 cups water
1/4 cup brown sugar
4-8 drops Tabasco sauce

Steps:

  • Lay out a generous amount of heavy foil on a large rimmed baking sheet. Lay one rack of ribs on the foil and rub generously with Applewood rub. You can be generous. I used 2-3 tablespoons per rack, but it is really up to you.
  • Wrap the foil around the ribs so that it is completely covered.
  • Repeat with the other rack of ribs.
  • Let the ribs sit for 30 minutes. Or overnight. Or no time at all, if you're in a hurry.
  • Preheat your oven to 250 degrees F.
  • Put the ribs in the oven and roast for about 3 hours. Take the ribs out when they are fork-tender.

NANA'S BARBECUE SAUCE

For some strange reason, the only time we had this sauce was to use as a gravy for leg of lamb. It was yummy on the mashed potatoes, too. To this day, this is the only way I make leg of lamb. I have also found it to be really good for a barbecued beef sandwich.

SIMPLE BARBECUE SAUCE



Simple Barbecue Sauce image

Smoked paprika is the secret weapon in this simple barbecue sauce, which goes beautifully with pork and chicken. If you're painting the sauce onto cooking meat, thin it out with water to about a one-to-one ratio, which will keep the sugars from burning too quickly over the fire. Serve the full-strength stuff alongside the finished meat.
