SWEET AND STICKY PORK RIBS

Steps:

• For the ribs: Place the ribs in a roasting pan, cutting the racks in half to fit if necessary. Combine the garlic, rosemary, brown sugar, balsamic vinegar, salt and cayenne in a small bowl, and rub the mixture evenly all over the ribs. Allow the ribs to marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour and up to 4 hours.
• Place a rack in the center of the oven and preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Pour 1/2 cup water into the roasting pan and cover the pan tightly with aluminum foil. Roast the ribs until the meat is very tender and separate easily from the bone, about 1 1/2 hours. While the ribs are roasting make the BBQ sauce.
• For the sauce: Place the balsamic vinegar in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Bring to a boil then lower the heat to medium and cook the vinegar until it is reduced by a third, about 8 minutes. Whisk in the ketchup, apple cider vinegar, honey, mustard, molasses, Worcestershire, hot sauce and salt. Bring the the sauce back to a boil then lower the heat and simmer until thickened, 15 to 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from the heat and let cool to room temperature.
• To finish, remove the ribs from the oven and transfer to 2 aluminum-foil-lined baking sheets. Increase the oven temperature to 450 degrees F. Brush both sides of the ribs generously with the BBQ sauce and bake uncovered for 10 minutes, until the sauce is browned and sizzling. Allow the ribs to rest for 10 minutes before slicing.

SWEET SMOKED PORK RIBS

Steps:

• Stir salt, white sugar, 2 tablespoons brown sugar, black pepper, white pepper, onion powder, garlic powder, chili powder, paprika, and cumin together in a small bowl to make the dry rub. Rub the spice mixture into the baby back ribs on all sides. Wrap the ribs well with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes prior to cooking.
• Unwrap baby back ribs and place onto the wire racks of the smoker in a single layer.
• Place the racks into a smoker, fill the smoker pan with apple, grape, pear, or cherry chips, and bring the smoker to 270 degrees F (130 degrees C). Smoke for 1 hour.
• Stir together the apple juice, 1/4 cup brown sugar, and the barbeque sauce. Brush the ribs with the sauce every 30 to 45 minutes after the first hour. Cook the ribs in the smoker until the meat is no longer pink and begins to "shrink" back from the bones, 3 to 4 hours. Brush the sauce onto the ribs one last time 30 minutes before the ribs are ready to be taken out of the smoker.
• Once the ribs are done, wrap them tightly with aluminum foil, and allow to rest 10 to 15 minutes. This will allow the juices to reabsorb into the meat and make the ribs moist.

SAVORY AND SWEET SMOKED RIBS WITH A CLASSIC BBQ SAUCE

Steps:

• Lay the ribs flat on a clean surface, meat side down. Remove the membrane that covers the rib bones by slicing it at one end with a paring knife. You should be able to grab the cut end with a paper towel and peel the layer of embrane off. Check out this video to see how it is done.
• Mix all of the dry rub ingredients together in a bowl or measuring cup. Sprinkle on and rub into the tops, bottoms, and sides of the ribs. Set the ribs aside to rest and come to room temperature for approximately 30 minutes.
• Preheat your electric smoker to 225˚F. When it is ready, add some water to the removable pan that is usually on the bottom shelf. This is optional, but it keeps the ribs moist. Fill the side "drawer" with dry wood chips. For less intense smoke flavor you can use water soaked chips.
• Place rib, meat side up, on the smoker's wire racks. If too large for the size smoker you have, cut them in half and arrange so that they fit. Cook in the smoker for 3 hours. If you don't see smoke after an hour or so, add more wood chips. Keep watching for smoke and add chips as needed.
• Make the sauce while the ribs are smoking (recipe follows). Or use your favorite jarred sauce.
• After 3 hours, place 2 large sheets of heavy-duty aluminum foil on your flat surface. Place a rack of ribs on each sheet of foil. Baste with your liquid of choice to moisten. A spray bottle or a pastry brush works well for this step. Wrap the ribs completely in the foil.
• Place the wrapped ribs back in the smoker and cook for an additional 1 to 1-1/2 hours, or until the internal temperature reaches 160 degrees. Serve with sauce on the side.
• Optional step: If you prefer your ribs slathered in sauce, you can coat the top of the ribs with some sauce and place them back in the smoker for another hour. This is referred to as the 3-2-1 smoking method.
• In a large saucepan, over medium heat, heat the oil and sauté the onions until translucent and soft, approximately 5 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute.
• Add tomato paste and mustard. Cook, stirring constantly, for approximately 5 minutes.
• Add the 2 cups of water, tomato sauce, molasses, Worcestershire, vinegar, salt, pepper, and cayenne. Whisk until smooth. Simmer this on low for up to 2 hours or until thick.

SLOW SMOKED PORK RIBS

Steps:

• Prepare ribs:.
• Let the ribs come up to room temperature, rinse off in cold water and remove the silver membrane from the back. You don`t have to remove it but I find the membrane blocks the uptake of smoke and creates a barrier to your rubs.
• To remove the membrane, lay the ribs on a flat surface meat side down. Take a sharp knife and begin peeling the membrane from one corner near the bone. Once you have a good piece peeled back, grab it with a paper towel to get a good grip and begin pulling. Once the membrane is removed rinse off the ribs again and pat dry with some paper towels.
• Mustard Rub:.
• Mix rub mixture together.
• Then rub the mustard rub mixture over the entire surface of the ribs.
• Once the pork ribs are seasoned and the smoker is ready then you are set to go. Using a blend of oak, hickory and a little mesquite in the firebox,or what you prefer.
• Place the ribs in the smoker and let it go. You want the good smoking temperature in the area about 200 degrees. You can go lower if you plan on doing a long smoke, but I don't go higher.
• After smoking for 2 hours. Then wrap the ribs in heavy duty foil and keep going for 2 more hours. Creating fall off the bone ribs! Then unwrap for one hour.
• To serve I cut the ribs inIf you want crispy ribs blast the heat on the grill and char them.
• If you want extra sweet, spicy, sticky goodness dip into your favorite BBQ sauce. Apply the sauce when the foil comes off, but for crispy ribs apply after crisping. If you want extra smoke go ahead and add more wood when unwrapping the ribs.
• Let ribs sit for 10 minutes before cutting into servings.

SMOKED PORK RIBS

Steps:

• Mix to combine all the rub ingredients. Moisten the ribs with lemon juice and then coat all sides with the rub, making sure to distribute evenly.
• Arrange the grill or smoker for indirect heating so the ribs will not be directly over the heat source. Using low heat and applewood chips (about half a pound), place ribs on cool part of the grill, wrap in foil, make a few incisions in the foil and smoke for 1 hour.
• Meanwhile, whisk together all glaze ingredients.
• After 1 hour, pour a third of the glaze on top of the ribs and seal tightly in the foil, being careful not to tear it. Do the same with remaining racks. Return ribs to the grill and cook meat-side down for 30 minutes, maintaining low heat. Occasionally check the grill to make sure it remains low. After 30 minutes, flip the foil bundles and continue cooking.
• After 1 hour of cooking, remove the ribs from the grill and let rest in the foil for 30 minutes. Meanwhile, raise grill heat to medium-high. Cut the lemon in half and grill flesh-side down until nicely marked and slightly soft, 3 to 5 minutes.
• When done resting, remove the ribs from the foil and place on the grill meat-side down and cook for 4 minutes. Flip and cook for another 2 minutes. Remove the ribs from the grill and garnish with the grilled lemon, sea salt, oregano and extra virgin olive oil and a little drizzle of honey.
