Texas Roadhouse Killer Ribs Recipes

Steps:

• Score the frozen ribs several times on the back of the rack.[3]
• Allow to thaw overnight.
• Preheat oven to 275 degrees Fahrenheit. Place a wire rack in a large shallow pan large enough to hold the rack of ribs.
• Rub 1/8 cup of the Texas Roadhouse rib seasoning over each side of the ribs. Use additional seasoning if needed to cover each side of the ribs.
• Combine the water and liquid smoke in the large pan. Mix well.
• Place the ribs in the pan on top of the wire rack. Do not allow the ribs to touch the water-liquid smoke mixture. Cover the pan tightly with aluminum foil.
• Bake for about five hours. Cook until the ribs nearly fall off the bone.
• While the ribs are cooking, saute the onion in vegetable oil in a saucepan. When the onion is soft, add the remaining ingredients and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to a simmer and simmer for an hour over low heat, until thickened.
• Preheat a charcoal or gas grill.
• Grill covered for about four minutes on each side. Brush with BBQ sauce, then flip to allow the sauce to caramelize. Repeat with the other side. Serve.

Steps:

• •Obtain a medium-sized bowl, a pair of scissors, an empty spice jar with a shaker top and a plastic bag with a zip-seal top. •Measure 3 tablespoons of garlic powder, 3 tablespoons of dry mustard and 3 tablespoons of onion powder. Pour each seasoning into the mixing bowl. •Add 1 tablespoon of salt, black pepper and paprika to the bowl. Opt for fresh ground medium-sized pepper if possible. •Add 2 teaspoons of Cayenne pepper and MSG to the bowl. Individuals who are sensitive to MSG can leave off this ingredient, but should substitute an additional 2 teaspoons of salt or salt alternative. •Stir seasonings gently with a spoon. •Pour all seasonings from the bowl into a zip-top plastic bag, then seal. •Shake the bag vigorously until the seasonings are well blended. The final mix should feature an orange hue. •Cut a diagonal hole on a bottom corner of the bag. •Place the bag inside the seasoning jar and allow the seasoning rub to move from the plastic bag to the jar. •Seal the jar and the seasoning mix is ready to place on ribs.

Steps:

• Clean the ribs, and trim away any excess fat. In a medium bowl, stir together the sugar, 1/4 cup salt, ground black pepper, paprika, 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper, and garlic powder. Coat ribs liberally with spice mix. Place the ribs in two 10x15 inch roasting pans, piling two racks of ribs per pan. Cover, and refrigerate for at least 8 hours.
• Preheat oven to 275 degrees F (135 degrees C). Bake uncovered for 3 to 4 hours, or until the ribs are tender and nearly fall apart.
• Remove 5 tablespoons of drippings from the bottom of the roasting pans, and place in a skillet over medium heat. Cook onion in pan drippings until lightly browned and tender. Stir in ketchup, and heat for 3 to 4 more minutes, stirring constantly. Next, mix in water and brown sugar, and season to taste with cayenne pepper, salt, and pepper. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 1 hour, adding water as necessary to achieve desired thickness.
• Preheat grill for medium-low heat.
• When ready to grill, add soaked wood chips to the coals or to the smoker box of a gas grill. Lightly oil grill grate. Place ribs on the grill two racks at a time so they are not crowded. Cook for 20 minutes, turning occasionally. Baste ribs with sauce during the last 10 minutes of grilling, so the sauce does not burn.
