Fall Off The Bone Baby Back Ribs Rub Bbq Sauce Recipes

FALL-OFF-THE BONE BABY BACK RIBS, RUB & BBQ SAUCE

Steps:

• 1. RIB RUB: Combine all spice ingredients; rub on ribs. Wrap ribs in plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight. NOTE: I keep the rub mix in a ziploc bag and use as needed.
• 2. Next morning preheat oven to 250 degrees. Add oil to a large skillet. Sear ribs over med/high heat for 5 minutes on each side. NOTE: I used 3 lbs of ribs, and cut them in half.
• 3. Foil line a roasting pan (for easier clean up). Pour 2 to 4 cups of water in pan. Place roasting rack in bottom of pan. Make sure water is below rack. Place seared ribs on roasting rack; bake at 250 degrees for 4 hours. (You may need to add add'l water as it evaporates). The steam roasting helps with tenderizing the meat without losing flavor. The last 30 minutes of cooking time, mop on the bbq sauce. Put extra sauce on table for those that want more. NOTE: if you do not have a roasting pan, use a large sheet cake pan and place cookie racks in the bottom and ensure the water level is below the racks. Remove from oven, let them rest 5 minutes before serving.
• 4. BBQ SAUCE: (or you can use BBQ sauce of your choice) In a large saucepan, heat oil over medium heat. Add onions; cook and stir until soft and tender (about 5 minutes). Add garlic, jalapeno jelly and pepper flakes. Continue stirring for 1 minute longer. Add Worcestershire sauce, dry mustard, brown sugar and sugar.
• 5. Reduce heat to medium-low; cook until slightly thickened, about 10 minutes. Stir often to prevent scorching.
• 6. Add ketchup and water and continue cooking uncovered, stirring often until thick, pulpy, and dark red, about 40 minutes; season with salt and pepper. Keep in fridge up to 3 weeks.

RIB RUB FOR FALL-OFF-THE-BONE RIBS

Steps:

• Combine white sugar, brown sugar, salt, paprika, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and cayenne pepper in a container with a lid; shake until rub is evenly combined.
• Generously rub both sides of each rib rack with rub.
• Preheat grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate.
• Place 1 rack of ribs, meaty-side down, in the center of main grill rack; cook for 5 minutes; transfer to the far side of top grill rack, meaty-side up. Repeat process with remaining rib racks.
• Angle the rib racks on the top grill shelf so the meaty sides are facing out and they are stacked one in front of the other at an angle. Turn off heat directly below the ribs and turn other burner on low; close the grill lid and cook for 30 minutes.
• Flip ribs so the closest side to the flame is the furthest side and the meaty side is still facing forward and the rack that was in the front is now in the back. Continue to cook, flipping every 30 minutes, until outsides are crispy and meat is tender, about 5 hours. Slice into small chunks.

FALL OFF THE BONE BABY BACK RIBS

Steps:

• Remove membrane from back of ribs. This is a must! If you don't remove the membrane, don't bother making the recipe.
• Apply rub to both sides of the ribs. The measurements given in the ingredient list are approximate -- go with amounts you prefer and add/remove any rub ingredients to fit your taste.
• Lay a bay leaf on top of each rack of ribs. Wrap the ribs in aluminum foil -- wrap them very well, either all in one big piece of aluminum foil, or individually wrapped.
• Put in a large roasting pan. You can put them directly on the oven rack, but I use a roasting pan in case juices escape.
• Bake at 200F for 6-8 hours (I prefer about 7-8 hours).
• Remove ribs from oven and unwrap.
• Generously apply hot sauce to ribs. Brush on barbecue sauce, then grill until nicely browned.
