Marnas Killer Rib Rub Food

BBQ RIBS WITH KILLER MAC AND CHEESE

Steps:

• For the boil: Add the vinegar, paprika, salt, Worcestershire, cayenne, cumin, black pepper, onion and garlic to a large pot, then add the ribs and cover with water until just submerged. Turn the heat to high and bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer and cook until the ribs are tender, but still on the bone, 45 minutes to 2 hours.
• For the sauce: Meanwhile, add olive oil to coat a medium pot and turn the heat to medium-high. When the oil is shimmering, add the onion and cook until it begins to soften, a few minutes. Then add the garlic, bell pepper and jalapeno. Cook until the vegetables soften, about 8 minutes. Add the tomatoes, ketchup, brown sugar, vinegar, hot sauce, molasses, black pepper, liquid smoke, lemon juice and 1 cup water and stir to combine. Raise the heat to high and bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer and cook until it coats the back of a spoon, 30 minutes to 2 hours. Taste and season with salt and pepper as needed.
• Heat a grill or grill pan over high heat.
• Remove the ribs from the pot and place on the grill. Cook until browned and grill marks appear, about 10 minutes. Flip over and grill on the opposite side. Brush the tops liberally with BBQ sauce and cook until the alternate side has grill marks. Flip again and coat with sauce. Continue to brush with sauce and flip every few minutes, until the sauce begins to caramelize, and a deep crust is formed. Remove the ribs from the grill and slice ribs to serve.
• Drizzle a bit of olive oil in a large saucepan. Add the bacon and set the pan over medium heat; cook, stirring occasionally, until brown and crisp, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from the pan and drain on paper towels. Do not discard the bacon fat: Reserve that deliciousness!
• Add the butter and onion to the pan with the bacon fat; season with salt and cook until the onion is soft and aromatic, 4 to 6 minutes. Add the flour and cook, stirring frequently, until the mixture looks like wet sand, about 3 minutes.
• Slowly whisk in the milk, mustard and a few shakes of Tabasco. Season with salt and bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Simmer until the mixture is slightly thicker than heavy cream, 6 to 8 more minutes.
• Meanwhile, bring a large pot of well-salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook 1 minute less than the instructions on the package suggest. Taste it: It should be toothsome, with just a little nugget of hard pasta still in the center-this is al dente. Drain the pasta.
• Add the Cheddar, fontina and Parmesan to the milk mixture and whisk to combine. Taste and adjust the seasoning, if needed, adding a little more milk if the mixture seems too thick. Stir in the cooked bacon and pasta. The mixture should be very creamy and flavorful. Serve immediately. (If making ahead, transfer to a baking dish or ramekins, then reheat in a 375 degree oven.)

We Traeger smoker our pork spareribs for 2 hours meat side up, then put into heavy duty foil packs with 1/2 cup each of apple juice and grape juice meat side down for 2-3 hours (until cooming off the bone).

KILLER STICKY RIBS, RUB AND SAUCE

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients for the rub in a plastic bag or tightly lidded container. Be sure there are no clumps of brown sugar and that spices are well distributed and combined. Reserve 2 tablespoons of the rub for the sauce. (If only using enough rub for fewer than 4 racks of ribs, separate amount of rub you will need so as not to contaminate what is left over. You may store additional rub mixture in a sealed container or zip top bag for further use - it works very well on pork chops or chicken.).
• Remove membrane from the underside of ribs. This can be easily done by using a paring knife to loosen one edge of the membrane and then, using paper towel to grab the membrane, pull it off. Rinse off ribs and pat dry with paper towels. Apply remaining rub on both sides of ribs. Wrap the ribs plastic or use an extra large food grade zip top bag. Refrigerate for up to 24 hours or at least 3 hours.
• 30 minutes before being ready to put ribs on grill, remove them from refrigerator and allow them to come closer to room temperature. On a gas grill set flame so that the temperature with the grill lid closed is 200-250°F Place water in a small aluminum pan (I use a loaf pan) on one side of the grill. This will allow a moist heat to penetrate the meat and allow for more moistness. Don't allow the water to evaporate completely. If you can use wood chips to smoke the meat with your grill, this is the time to get the chips smoking.
• Place ribs on the grill bone side down and leave them on the grill for 1½ to 3 hours at this temperature (depending upon how much time you have and how tender you want the meat). I try to turn the ribs about every 30-40 minutes. It will be necessary to turn the ribs at least once. This is actually something that you need to see when it's time to do. Check your ribs periodically to be sure that they are not getting charred and that your grill is not too hot. Depending upon your grill, you may have to turn the ribs more often to avoid hot spots or flame ups. If you haven't already done so, at about the 2 hour point, you'll need to turn the ribs over. Allow them an additional 1 1/2 - 2 hours on the grill depending upon your time schedule. The more time they are done low and slow, the more tender they will become.
• (If you can't or don't want to grill the ribs, heat oven to 250°F Place ribs on a wire rack on top of a jelly roll pan. Place water in the bottom of the pan so that it does not come up to the rack. Use foil to tightly wrap the entire pan. Bake in oven for 3-4 hours.).
• While grilling the ribs, mix all ingredients for the sauce in a heavy-bottomed sauce pan. Add 2 tablespoons of reserved spices and add to the sauce mixture. Bring to a simmer and allow to simmer for 5 minutes. Remove from heat.
• If you prefer, mop the some of the sauce onto the ribs in the last 10 minutes of grilling. Leave the rest of the sauce so that guests can add their own sauce according to their tastes.
• Upon removing ribs from the grill, cut them into smaller sections or individual ribs (usually they're ready to fall apart). Serve immediately to a very happy crowd.

MEMPHIS DRY RUB RIBS (STEVEN RAICHLEN)

Steps:

• You will need a barbecue mop.
• Make the rub: add the rub ingredients to a bowl; stir to mix.
• Store rub in an airtight container away from heat and light; will keep for 6 months.
• Make the mop sauce-add the vinegar, salt, and rub in a bowl; add 1 cup water; whisk until the salt dissolves; set aside.
• Remove the thin, papery membrane from the back of each rack of ribs.
• Generously season the ribs all over with salt and pepper.
• Set up grill for direct grilling (charcoal is more accurate); preheat to medium.
• When ready to cook, brush the grill grate, place the ribs on the hot grate, bone side down, and grill until that side is sizzling and golden brown, about 35 minutes.
• Turn the ribs and grill meat side down until that side is sizzling and golden brown, about 25 minutes longer.
• When fully cooked, the ribs will be nicely browned and tender enough to pull apart with your fingers.
• The dripping fat may cause flare-ups; if this happens, move the ribs to another spot on the grate.
• Transfer the grilled ribs to a platter or cutting board.
• Generously brush or mop the ribs on both sides with the mop sauce.
• Thickly sprinkle the meat side with the remaining rub to form a crust.
• You can use all or the rub or just a part, depending on your fondness for spice.
• Mr. Raichlen likes a crust about 1/8 inch thick; serve the ribs as whole racks, cut the racks in pieces, or carve them into individual ribs and serve any remaining rub on the side.
