Chili Baked Ribs Recipes

EASY FALL OFF THE BONE OVEN-BAKED RIBS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 275° Fahrenheit (135C).
• If the ribs still have the thin membrane covering the back of the rack, remove it. See how in the notes section below.
• Season both sides of the ribs with a generous amount of salt and pepper. If you are using a spice rub, add season the ribs with it now. Place the ribs, meat-side up, into a large roasting pan or rimmed baking sheet. (It may be necessary to cut the ribs in half for them to fit into the pan).
• Cover the pan or baking sheet tightly with aluminum foil, and then bake until the meat falls easily from the bones, 2 ½ to 3 ½ hours. We like to check the ribs after 2 hours to see how they are progressing. The ribs are done when the meat is cooked through and tender.
• While the ribs bake, make the barbecue sauce. Heat the olive oil in a saucepan over medium heat.
• Add the onions and cook until soft and translucent, 5 to 8 minutes. Stir in the cumin and cook for an additional 30 seconds.
• Add the ketchup, hot chili sauce, brown sugar, and apple cider vinegar. Stir to combine, season with salt then cook for 2 minutes. Set aside in preparation for the ribs to finish roasting.
• Remove the ribs from the oven, discard the aluminum foil and generously brush both sides with barbecue sauce.
• Optional: Move an oven rack near the top of the oven. Turn broiler to high and broil the ribs for 3-4 minutes, just until the barbecue sauce begins to caramelize. (Keep a close eye on the ribs while they broil so the sauce does not burn.)
• Store baked ribs, in an airtight container, in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Freeze, wrapped in foil or freezer paper and in an airtight container, for up to 3 months. Thaw in the refrigerator, and then reheat.
• To reheat the ribs, wrap in foil or parchment paper and place into a 300°F oven until warmed through, about 30 minutes. If you have some leftover, slather some extra sauce that's been warmed over the ribs before serving.

BAKED CHILI RIBS

Steps:

• A day in advance, prepare the sauce.
• heat oil in a large heavy saucepan over medium heat.
• Add in the onion and garlic; saute for about 5 minutes.
• Add in all remaining sauce ingredients; bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer for about 30-35 minutes.
• Cool to room temperature, cover and refrigerate overnight.
• Also a day in advance, prepare the ribs.
• Make slits in the underside (white part) of the ribs and place in a large roasting pan.
• In a small cup mix the liquid smoke and cider vinegar, brush over the ribs and refrigerate for 2 hours.
• After 2 hours, mix together the remaining seasonings and rub on all sides of the ribs; cover and refrigerate for 24 hours.
• To cook the ribs, set oven to 300 degrees.
• Season all sides of the ribs with salt and pepper, then arrange ribs (meat-side) up in a single layer on two baking sheets.
• Roast for about 3 hours, covering loosely with foil if the ribs are browning too much.
• After about 1-1/2 hours of roasting time change the position of the baking sheets, moving the bottom one up and the top one down.
• When the roasting time is almost finished, brush both sides of the ribs using the prepared sauce (leave some sauce to serve at the table) place back in the oven and roast for about 25 minutes more.
• Remove and cover loosely with foil and let stand for about 20 minutes.
• Cut the ribs between the bones and serve with remaining sauce.
