Magnificent Ribs Recipes

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.

Steps:

• Combine the brown sugar, chili powder, 1 tablespoon salt, 1 teaspoon black pepper, the oregano, cayenne, garlic powder and onion powder in a small bowl and rub the mixture on both sides of the ribs. Cover and refrigerate 1 hour or overnight.
• Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F. In a roasting pan, combine the broth and vinegar. Add the ribs to the pan. Cover with foil and tightly seal. Bake 2 hours. Remove the ribs from the pan and place them on a platter. Pour the liquid from the pan into a saucepan and bring to a boil. Lower the heat to a simmer and cook until reduced by half. Add the barbecue sauce.
• Preheat an outdoor grill to medium high. Put the ribs on the grill and cook about 5 minutes on each side, until browned and slightly charred. Cut the ribs between the bones and toss them in a large bowl with the sauce. Serve hot.

Steps:

• Cut ribs into small portions of 2 or 3 bones each. Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Season water a pinch each of salt, black pepper, and crushed red pepper to the water. Boil ribs in seasoned water for 20 minutes. Drain, and let the ribs sit for about a half an hour.
• Meanwhile, preheat an outdoor grill for high heat.
• Lightly coat the ribs with barbecue sauce. Cook the ribs over high heat for a 5 to 10 minutes on each side to get a nice grilled look to them.
• Place grilled ribs in a slow cooker. Pour remaining barbecue sauce and one bottle of beer over the ribs; this should cover at least half of the ribs. Cover, and cook on High for 3 hours. Check ribs every hour or so, and add more beer if needed to dilute sauce. Stir to get the ribs on top into the sauce. The ribs are done when the meat is falling off the bone. The ribs were cooked completely in the first process, the rest is about flavor and texture.

Steps:

• Combine: sugar, pepper, paprika, curry powder, and salt in a bowl.
• Rub spice mixture over ribs, coating well.
• Place ribs in shallow pan.
• Cover and chill for 2 to 6 hours.
• Arrange medium coals around a drip pan in a covered grill.
• Test for medium-low heat above pan.
• Place ribs, fat side up, on grill rack over drip pan but not over coals.
• Lower grill hood.
• Grill about 1-1/4 hours or until tender, turning once, and adding more coals as needed.
• Meanwhile, for the sauce, combine brown sugar, vinegar, onion, mustard, garlic, honey, liquid smoke, and celery seed in a medium saucepan.
• Bring to a boil.
• Reduce heat and cook, uncovered, for 40 to 60 minutes or until slightly thickened, stirring occasionally.
• Brush sauce over ribs occasionally during last 10 to 15 minutes of grilling.
• Heat any remaining sauce until bubbly and pass around with ribs.
• (I cook these ribs on my propane gas grill and they come out just fine.).

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
• Place ribs in a baking pan. In a medium bowl, combine brown sugar, ketchup, water, vinegar, lemon juice, celery, onion, salt and pepper. Mix well, then pour over ribs in pan.
• Bake in preheated oven for 3 hours, or until tender.
