Fall Off The Bone Barbecued Baby Back Ribs Recipes

Steps:

• Mix Brown sugar with spices and set aside. Pre-heat oven to 275 degrees. Use a 2 piece broiler pan, the lower half filled with very hot water, then layer racks of rib on the top. Ribs can be left whole in racks and layered, I have done 6 at a time, they still come out great. Rub the brown sugar mixture liberally over each rack. Then using heavy duty tin foil, cover the pan so that no heat escapes. I usually double wrap the ribs. Set in oven for 3 hours and can be up to 5 hours. Remove foil carefully and cut ribs into a manageable length to grill them. If you try to grill the rack without making it smaller, some of the ribs will fall apart and the meat will literally fall off the bones! Brush with your favorite barbecue sauce, I like homemade or Sweet Baby Ray's brand. Grill over a very hot gas or charcoal rill for 2 to 3 minutes per side. Serve with plenty of napkins. These ribs are amazing!

Steps:

• Mix spices together and apply rub thoroughly over the three racks of ribs on individual large sheets of aluminum foil. Rub both sides of each rack and then tightly seal each rack within the foil. Put on a cookie sheet or two and bake in a preheated 225 degree over for 4 to 5 hours depending how fall of the bone you would like your ribs. When done cooking carefully drain the liquid from the ribs and if you are going to use the sauce you will want ot put them back in oven under a preheated broiler, with foil open for about ten minutes to dry the outside a little. This last procedure can also be done on an open barbeque without using foil. Carefully move ribs, as they will be very tender. SAUCE Put olive oil in heated saucepan add onions and saute over medium heat until soft, but do not brown. Add garlic and stir for 2 to 3 minutes more. Add rest of ingredients and simmer over low heat for 30 minutes. Taste and add lemon juice or more sugar to suit your taste if needed. If you are using the sauce, then you remove the ribs from the oven and glaze the top of the ribs with the sauce. Warm uncovered on grill or under broiler for 15 to 20 minutes.

Steps:

• If there's a thin membrane on the back of the ribs, peel this off as best you can. The length of the ribs will be determined by the size of your roasting tin and barbecue - leave them whole or cut in half or thirds. Tip the ribs into a large, deep roasting tin. Whisk the rest of the ingredients together in a bowl until completely combined, then pour this over the ribs. Toss the ribs in the sauce using your hands to ensure they're completely coated. Cover the tin with foil, shiny-side down. To cook straightaway, simply leave to marinate while the oven heats up, or chill the ribs overnight.
• Heat the oven to 160C/140C fan/gas 3 and bake the ribs for 2 hrs 30 mins-3 hrs, turning once or twice until the bones are exposed and the meat is pull-apart tender. When the ribs are cooked, leave to cool a little, then lift onto a tray using tongs. Pour the sauce from the tin into a saucepan and bring to the boil. Reduce the heat and simmer for 25-30 mins, stirring occasionally until thickened. Leave to cool. The sauce and ribs can be prepared up to two days ahead and chilled.
• Light the barbecue and wait until the coals are ashen, or set a gas barbecue to medium. Put as many ribs on the grill as you can fit, then brush generously with the sauce. Working quickly, grill the ribs, basting with more sauce and turning every minute or so until the ribs are well-coated, charred at the edges, caramelised and sticky. Repeat with any remaining ribs and sauce if they didn't all fit on the grill at once. Serve piled high on a platter with the reserved sauce on the side for slathering on top. Any leftover sauce will keep chilled in the fridge for up to a week.
