Rosemary Garlic Baby Back Ribs Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with 2 layers of foil.
• If your ribs are in a rack, cut them into separate ribs. Drain the sundried tomatoes, reserving the oil. Toss the ribs with the reserved oil, whole garlic cloves, rosemary, 1 1/4 teaspoons salt and a generous amount of pepper. Place the ribs on the prepared baking sheet and cover the baking sheet with foil. Bake until very tender, about 1 1/2 hours.
• Meanwhile, finely chop the sun-dried tomatoes. Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the tomatoes, minced garlic, shallot and 1/2 teaspoon salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 7 minutes. Add the tomato paste and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Add the sugar, vinegar and 1 cup water. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat and simmer until slightly thickened, about 10 minutes. Transfer about half of the mixture to a mini chop or food processor and pulse until smooth; return the puree to the saucepan with the rest of the tomato glaze.
• When the ribs are tender, remove from the oven and increase the temperature to 500 degrees F. Uncover the ribs and remove the rosemary. Mash the roasted garlic cloves into the tomato glaze, discarding anything too tough to mash. Spoon half of the tomato glaze over the ribs. Bake until charred in spots, about 8 minutes. Turn the ribs over and add the rest of the tomato glaze. Bake until charred in spots, about 3 minutes more. Transfer the ribs to a platter and spoon any tomato glaze from the pan over top.

Steps:

• Prepare the grill for indirect heat:
• If you don't have a smoker with an offset box, you can build a fire on one side of your grill and then put a piece of foil on the opposite side of the grill. This will create indirect heat.
• Prepare the ribs:
• Remove the thin, papery membrane skin from the back of each rack of ribs by pulling it off in a sheet with your fingers, using the corner of a kitchen towel to gain a secure grip, or with pliers.
• Prepare the rub:
• In a bowl, whisk together chile powder, salt, pepper, cumin, rosemary, thyme, garlic powder, and sugar.
• Generously season ribs with the mixture, rubbing onto both sides of the rack.
• Place the ribs, bone-side down, on foil to cook with lid closed. Cover the grill and keep the temperature of the grill at a constant 225°F. Cook the ribs for about 3 to 4 hours or until tender.

Steps:

• Remove the membrane from the underside of the ribs, if attached, then cut into 4 sections of 3 or 4 ribs each.
• In a large dish, combine the garlic, rosemary, oil, salt, hot pepper flakes and pepper.
• Add the ribs and rub all over with the spice mixture.
• Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour or up to 24 hours.
• Set a foil drip pan under 1 rack of a 2-burner barbecue or under the centre rack of a 3-burner barbecue.
• Heat the remaining burners to medium heat.
• Place the ribs, meat side down, on a greased grill over the unlit burner.
• Close the lid and cook, turning once, until the meat is tender and pulls away from the ends of the bones, about 1 hour.
• Squeeze the lemon over the ribs to serve.

Steps:

• Mix paprika, sea salt, garlic powder, black pepper, ginger, onion powder, rosemary, and cayenne pepper together in a bowl.

Steps:

• Marinate and roast ribs:
• Mince and mash garlic to a paste with 1 teaspoon salt. Stir together with rosemary, brown sugar, vinegar, cayenne, 1 tablespoon salt, and 1 teaspoon pepper. Rub evenly all over ribs and transfer to roasting pans. Marinate, chilled, 8 to 24 hours.
• Preheat oven to 425°F with racks in upper and lower thirds.
• Pour 1/2 cup water into each roasting pan and tightly cover pans with foil. Roast ribs, switching position of pans halfway through, until meat is very tender, about 1 3/4 hours. Remove pans from oven and transfer ribs to a platter.
• Make glaze and grill ribs:
• Add 1 cup hot water to each roasting pan and scrape up brown bits. Skim off and discard fat, then transfer liquid to a 10-inch skillet. Add vinegar and brown sugar and bring to a boil, stirring occasionally. Boil until reduced to about 1 cup, about 15 minutes.
• Prepare grill for direct-heat cooking over medium-hot charcoal (medium heat for gas); see Grilling Procedure .
• Brush some of glaze onto both sides of racks of ribs. Grill, turning occasionally, until ribs are hot and grill marks appear, about 6 minutes.
• Brush ribs with more glaze and serve remaining glaze on the side.
