Time 5h

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 14

¼ cup salt
¼ cup white sugar
2 tablespoons packed brown sugar
2 tablespoons ground black pepper
2 tablespoons ground white pepper
2 tablespoons onion powder
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon chili powder
1 tablespoon ground paprika
1 tablespoon ground cumin
10 pounds baby back pork ribs
1 cup apple juice
¼ cup packed brown sugar
¼ cup barbeque sauce

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.

NOT YOUR EVERY DAY SMOKED PORK SPARE RIBS



Not Your Every Day Smoked Pork Spare Ribs image

Our family's favorite. Slightly sweet and spicy, with a light non-tomato based baste that doesn't overpower the delicious falling-off-the-bone meat. We have also used this recipe on pork shoulder. Divine! BBQ sauce is never needed, but if you must, only use your favorite! Enjoy!

Time 12h

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 21

6 pounds pork spareribs
½ cup packed brown sugar
2 tablespoons chili powder
1 tablespoon paprika
1 tablespoon freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons garlic powder
2 teaspoons onion powder
2 teaspoons kosher salt
2 teaspoons ground cumin
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon jalapeno seasoning salt
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 cup apple cider
¾ cup apple cider vinegar
1 tablespoon onion powder
1 tablespoon garlic powder
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 jalapeno pepper, finely chopped
3 tablespoons hot pepper sauce
kosher salt and ground black pepper to taste
2 cups wood chips, or as needed

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl, mix together the brown sugar, chili powder, paprika, black pepper, 2 tablespoons garlic powder, 2 teaspoons onion powder, kosher salt, cumin, cinnamon, jalapeno seasoning, and cayenne pepper. Rub generously onto the pork spareribs. Cover, and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight.
  • Prepare an outdoor grill for indirect heat, or preheat a smoker to 250 degrees F (120 degrees C). Soak wood chips (apple or cherry are our favorites).
  • While the grill heats up, prepare the mop sauce. In a medium bowl, stir together the apple cider, apple cider vinegar, 1 tablespoon onion powder, 1 tablespoon garlic powder, lemon juice, jalapeno, hot pepper sauce, salt and pepper.
  • When the coals are gray and ashed over, place 2 handfuls of soaked woodchips directly on them. Place the ribs on the grill grate bone-side down. Cover, and cook for 3 1/2 to 4 hours. Add more coals as needed. Baste with the mop sauce, and throw handfuls of soaked woodchips onto the coals every hour. Keep the temperature of the grill or smoker from going below 225 degrees F (110 degrees C). Ribs are done when the rub has created a wonderful crispy blackened 'bark', and the meat has pulled away from the bone. Discard any leftover mop sauce.

SMOKED PORK RIBS



Smoked Pork Ribs image

If you don't own a smoker, this is a great way to do ribs on the grill. I first saw this technique done by Adam Perry Lang, who is not only a great barbecue chef but a great all-around chef. In fact, he knows more about meat than practically anybody I've met. For this recipe I use pork spareribs, but the technique works just as well with lamb ribs too, though cook times will vary. Feel free to substitute your favorite BBQ sauce.

Categories     main-dish

Time 3h

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

1 tablespoon garlic salt
2 teaspoons smoked paprika
2 teaspoons toasted and ground coriander seed
Pinch kosher salt
1 tablespoon oregano
2 racks pork baby-back ribs
Juice of 1 lemon
1 tablespoon honey
1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
1 garlic clove, minced
1/2 small red onion, minced
Teaspoon fresh oregano
Teaspoon fresh thyme
1 lemon
Sea salt
1 tablespoon fresh oregano
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
Drizzle of honey

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.

SLOW SMOKED PORK RIBS



Slow Smoked Pork Ribs image

temperature about 200 degrees, smoke and patience. A full rack of ribs can be smoked in about 4 hours but do take the time and go the distance. The longer you smoke the more flavor you will get. I'm using a mustard rub to form a nice crust. Remember that you need to hit an internal temperature of 165 F before they can be served. Have a meat thermometer ready.

Categories     Pork

Time 5h20m

Yield 8-16 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

8 lbs pork loin baby back ribs
1/4 cup yellow honey mustard
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/3 cup paprika
1/4 cup onion powder
1/4 cup granulated garlic powder
2 tablespoons dried parsley flakes
1 -2 tablespoon chipotle chili pepper flakes
1 tablespoon black pepper
2 tablespoons chili powder
1 tablespoon ground cumin
1 tablespoon salt

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.

SMOKR'S SLOW SMOKED PORK SPARE RIBS



Smokr's Slow Smoked Pork Spare Ribs image

These are the perfect treat for a hot, summer day. Fire up the grill and get ready for some of the best ribs you've ever had!

Provided by Raphe Reeves

Categories     Ribs

Time 10h

Number Of Ingredients 8

1/2 c brown sugar
1/4 c paprika
1 Tbsp black pepper, fine
1 Tbsp kosher salt
1 Tbsp chili powder
3/4 Tbsp garlic powder
3/4 Tbsp onion powder
1/4 tsp cayenne pepper

Steps:

  • 1. I start out with the ribs (2 full racks) on a cookie sheet, or the like, and keep them wet with Apple Cider Vinegar for about 4 or 5 hours. I use an inexpensive spray bottle and just keep spraying them intermittently during this time.
  • 2. During the time you're keeping them wet with the vinegar, go ahead and mix the rub ingredients in a mixing bowl.
  • 3. Afterwards, I'll lightly coat both sides of the ribs with pulp free orange juice.
  • 4. Next, I apply basic Yellow Mustard, lightly, to both sides of the slab/s.
  • 5. Lastly, I apply the "rib rub" (see ingredients) evenly to both sides of the slab, the extra on the meat side.
  • 6. Now, it's time to wrap them in aluminum foil and refrigerate overnight. I keep them in the fridge for 12 - 18 hours.
  • 7. Cooking day: Take the ribs out of the fridge at least two full hours before you plan to put them on the cooker/smoker. They need to be at room temperature before placing in/on the cooker/smoker. I like to smoke the ribs at a temp no higher than 220 degrees F. "Low & Slow"
  • 8. I'll cook the ribs for about 90 mins, not turning nor opening the cooker. You can spray the ribs with the Apple Cider Vinegar while they cook, if you wish, to help keep them moist.
  • 9. Then, I'll take them out and wrap them in aluminum foil for the next 90 mins.
  • 10. At the 3 hour mark, I'll remove the foil and cook the remaining time. Based on your temp, it'll take another 3 - 4 hours. When you start to see the rib bone exposed from the meat about 1/4 to 1/2 inch, you're getting close. I insert a toothpick between the meat and the bone. When the toothpick will push, easily, the full length of the toothpick down into the meat, you're very close to done.
  • 11. Note: If I'm cooking a rack wet, then I'll start to apply the sauce during the last hour or so of cooking. I don't mind if the sugar in the sauces blackens just a smidge.....

SMOKED SALT-BRINED BARBECUED PORK RIBS



Smoked Salt-Brined Barbecued Pork Ribs image

Categories     Sauce     Pork     Side     Christmas     Brine     Simmer

Yield serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 cups apple cider
2 tablespoons red alder smoked salt
1 teaspoon black peppercorns, cracked
2 racks (about 4 pounds total) St. Louis-cut spare ribs or baby back ribs
Root of Evil Barbecue Sauce
1/4 cup tomato paste
1/4 cup root beer
2 tablespoons molasses
2 tablespoons spicy brown mustard
3 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
2 tablespoons Tabasco sauce
1 three-finger pinch red alder smoked salt
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper

Steps:

  • To make a brine for the ribs, mix the cider, salt, and pepper in a large (two-gallon) zipper-lock bag until the salt dissolves. Cut the racks of ribs in half and add to the brine. Seal the zipper, leaving about an inch open; push on the bag to release any trapped air through the opening, and close the zipper completely. Massage the liquid gently into the meat and refrigerate for 6 to 12 hours. If you brine the ribs overnight and won't be cooking them until evening, remove the ribs from the brine in the morning to keep them from overbrining; store them, wrapped in the refrigerator until you are ready to cook them.
  • Preheat a grill for indirect medium heat (about 325°F). If you are using a charcoal grill, this means banking your coal bed to one side or at opposite ends of the fire box, leaving open an area large enough to hold the racks of ribs. If you have a two-burner gas grill, turn one side on to medium and leave the other side off. If you have a three- or more-burner grill turn the outside burners on to medium and leave the center burner(s) off.
  • Brush the grill grate thoroughly with a wire brush to clean it and coat it lightly with oil. Remove the ribs from the brine, discard the brine, and pat the ribs dry with a clean cloth or paper towel. Put the ribs on the grill, bone side down, away from the heat. Cover the grill and cook until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the ribs registers about 155°F, about 1 hour.
  • While the ribs are cooking, bring the ingredients for the barbecue sauce to a simmer in a small saucepan, stirring as needed. Reserve one-third of the sauce for dipping at the table. Set the remaining sauce aside.
  • When the ribs are almost cooked, brush them with half of the remaining sauce, turn them sauce side down, cover the grill, and cook for 3 minutes. Brush the unglazed surfaces with the remaining sauce, turn he ribs sauce side down, cover, and cook for another 3 minutes.
  • Remove the ribs to a cutting board and cut into one-or two-rib sections. Place the ribs on a large serving platter and serve with the reserved sauce poured over the top or in a bowl for dipping.

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 rack baby back pork ribs, fat trimmed and membrane removed
¼ cup pork rub

¼ cup extra-virgin olive oil
5 tablespoons ketchup
½ cup extra-virgin olive oil
3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 ½ tablespoons honey
1 ½ tablespoons cracked black peppercorns

Preheat grill to 250 degrees F using hickory and charcoal. Use indirect heat and cook with the cover down. Place ribs, meatier side down, on the grill away from the coals. Cook beef 2 hours, adding more coals as needed. Turn and cook for 45 minutes more, or until the ribs "bend" and the meat easily separates from the bone using a fork. Cook the pork ribs 3 hours. Turn and cook another hour, or until ribs bend. Remove from grill.

SWEET SMOKED PORK RIBS RECIPE - (4/5)



Sweet Smoked Pork Ribs Recipe - (4/5) image

Provided by á-31592

Number Of Ingredients 13

1/4 cup salt 1/4 cup white sugar
2 tablespoons packed brown sugar
2 tablespoons ground black pepper
2 tablespoons ground white pepper
2 tablespoons onion powder
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon chili powder
1 tablespoon paprika
1 tablespoon ground cumin
10 pounds baby back pork ribs
1 cup apple juice
1/4 cup packed brown sugar
1/4 cup barbeque sauce

Steps:

  • Stir together the salt, white sugar, 2 tablespoons brown sugar, black pepper, white pepper, onion powder, garlic powder, chili powder, paprika, and cumin 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 at least 30 minutes prior to cooking. Place the baby back ribs onto the wire racks of the smoker. It is ok if the meat is touching, but to not stack. 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. Cooking time. 3 hours minimum. We will be cooking low and slow at about 225°F, so allow 5 to 6 hours for St. Louis Cut (SLC) ribs and 3 to 4 hours for baby back ribs. Thicker, meatier slabs take longer, and if you use rib holders so they are crammed close to each other, add another hour. Country ribs are really not ribs, they are

APPLEWOOD SMOKED PORK RIBS WITH RED CHILE GLAZE



Applewood Smoked Pork Ribs with Red Chile Glaze image

Provided by Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 55m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

6 pounds pork baby back ribs
1 yellow onion, peeled and coarsely chopped
4 green jalapeno chiles, stemmed, seeded, and coarsely chopped
12 black peppercorns
1 bay leaf
1 tablespoon cumin seeds
Applewood chips (available at most home barbecue centers)
Red Chile Glaze, recipe follows
1 cup pineapple juice
2 tablespoons cornstarch
3/4 cup brown sugar
1 teaspoons salt
3/4 cup rice wine vinegar
2 tablespoon ketchup
2 red serrano chiles, roasted, peeled, stemmed, seeded (reserve seeds), and finely chopped

Steps:

  • Prepare the ribs by removing the thin, white skin-like membrane on the inside of the rib surface if still present (or have your butcher do it for you). Make small slashes, using the point of a very sharp knife, between the ribs without cutting all the way through. Reserve the ribs.
  • Combine the onion, chiles, and seasonings in a deep stockpot and add water to fill 1/2 full. Bring to a boil over medium heat and add the ribs when the water first reaches the boil. Lower the heat and cook at a simmer for 10 to 15 minutes, depending upon the rib size, or until the ribs are soft and cooked half way through.
  • Prepare the grill to medium high temperature and prepare the wood chips according to the manufacturer's instructions. Introduce the wood chips to the fire prior to the ribs entering the grill. While the grill is the best method to use for preparing the ribs, the oven may also be used to bake the ribs, however, the applewood chips should not be used in the oven! Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F, place the ribs in an oven proof baking pan, and place them in the center of the oven, liberally basting with the Red Chile Glaze. Bake for a total of 25 to 30 minutes, turning the ribs over half way through the baking process and basting with additional sauce.
  • Place the ribs on the grill and liberally baste with the Red Chile Glaze, prepared ahead of time. Continue to cook of the grill for 8 to 10 minutes per side or until the ribs are very soft and flexible. Remove from the heat and serve accompanied by the glaze, red beans, and the vegetable of your choice.
  • Combine cornstarch and juice and mix until smooth. Place into a saucepan with the remaining ingredients and cook over medium high heat until mixture thickens. Add seeds from the chiles, and if it gets too thick, add water water.
  • Note: You may want to add more vinegar or juice depending on how sweet or sour you like things. Keep covered in the refrigerator for up to a week.

SMOKED PORK LOIN BACK RIBS RECIPE



Smoked Pork Loin Back Ribs Recipe image

Provided by kathya5084

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 rack of Pork Loin Back Ribs
yellow mustard
Favorite rib rub, homemade or bought
1/4 cup apple juice
1/4 cup barbeque sauce (I like Sweet Baby Ray's)

Steps:

  • Day before: Remove membrane on underside. Removal makes the ribs more tender and allows penetration of the seasoning and smoke. Using a butter knife, start at the small end of the slab and pry-up part of the membrane. Grasp the membrane with a paper towel and pull it off toward the wide end of the slab. The membrane on loin back ribs may shred when pulled off, so you may have to pry up a few remaining bits and pull them off. Rub mustard over ribs, generously sprinkle rib rub all over ribs - front and back. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight. Actual cooking time is 6 hours. Allow additional 10 minutes for foiling and saucing ribs. Set smoker to 225 - 228 degrees. Preheat to temperature. If you have vents, set to 1/2 open. Add wood chips and let smoke for a few minutes. Place ribs in a rib rack on smoker rack with a drip pan underneath. I use a foil lasagna pan. I also cut my ribs in half, they are easier to maneuver. Smoke the ribs for 3 hours adding wood chips when needed. (I smoke 2 batches of chips. For smokier flavor, smoke longer) After 3 hours remove the ribs from the rack and set rack aside. Pour 1/4 cup of apple juice in foil lasagna pan, add ribs and cover tightly with foil. Cook for 3 more hours. Remove the ribs from the foil pan and place back in rib rack. Brush with barbeque sauce and place the ribs back into smoker. (I put the rack and ribs back in the foil pan). Cook uncovered 1 hour. Remove and serve with bbq sauce, if desired. Ribs - 550 calories per 1/2 rack Sauce - 70 calories per 1/2 rack
