Kansas City Sloppy Ribs Includes An Awesome Dry Rub Recipes

KANSAS CITY DRY RUB RECIPE

Steps:

• Mix all ingredients together, working clumps out of the brown sugar.
• Store dry mix in a tightly sealed (glass or plastic) container in a dry, cool place for up to 1 year.
• Use as dry rub to season meat for grilling, frying or smoking meats like beef, pork and chicken. NOTE: Depending on how much rub you like on your food, or as directed by specific recipes, you should get approximately 2-4 meals out of one batch of this recipe.

HOW TO MAKE KANSAS CITY STYLE RIBS

Steps:

• Whisk together the Kansas City Style Dry Rub spices together and set aside.
• Remove the membrane from the back of the rack, and trim the pork ribs of any excess fat. Rub each rack liberally with the rub on both sides. Wrap ribs in foil or large container and refrigerate over night (optional, minimum 2 hours).
• Remove the ribs from the fridge and allow to come to room temperature. Soak wood chips and start your grill or smoker.
• Mix together the Kansas City Style barbecue sauce recipe and set aside or use your favorite.

KANSAS CITY STYLE PORK RIBS

Steps:

• Remove the thin white membrane off of the bone-side of the ribs. Mix together the brown sugar, dry mustard, cayenne, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt and pepper in a small bowl. Massage the rub into the ribs and let sit for 1 hour or up to overnight.
• If cooking on the grill, place the ribs meat-side down next to medium-hot coals that are about 225 degrees F. The indirect heat will cook them slower, making them tender. Allow to cook for 1 hour. Turn ribs every half hour and baste with the Kansas City Barbeque Sauce. Cook until the ribs are tender, about 3 to 4 hours.
• If cooking indoors, place in a roasting pan with a rack. Slather the ribs with the Kansas City Barbeque Sauce and tent a piece of aluminum foil over them. In a preheated 350 degrees F. oven, place the ribs, basting with the sauce every 30 minutes and removing the foil for the last 30 minutes and cooking until fork tender, about 2 1/2 to 3 hours.
• In a small sauce pot on medium-high heat, heat the oil and add the onion, cooking until translucent.
• Add the remaining ingredients in a large bowl and mix together. Add to sauce pan and let simmer for 30 to 45 minutes. Use to baste the pork spare ribs.

KANSAS CITY SLOPPY RIBS (INCLUDES AN AWESOME DRY RUB RECIPE)

Steps:

• The night before you plan to grill, combine the rub ingredients in a bowl. Apply about one-third of the rub evenly to the ribs, reserving the rest. Place the slabs in a plastic bag and refrigerate them overnight.
• Before you begin to barbecue, take the ribs from the refrigerator. Sprinkle the ribs lightly but thoroughly with rub, reserving the rest of the mixture. Let the ribs sit at room temperature for 30 to 40 minutes.
• Smoke the ribs, or grill them, turning and sprinkling them with more dry rub about halfway through cooking. In the last 45 minutes of cooking, slather the ribs once or twice with Struttin' Sauce (recipe posted separately).
• Allow the ribs to sit about 10 minutes before serving with more sauce alongside.
• Note: cooking time is approximate grilling time. Since not everyone has a smoker, I allowed for that -- smoking will take much longer. I also like to parboil the ribs a bit before grilling as it makes them more tender -- obviously before marinating and applying any rub.
