THE ULTIMATE HOMEMADE MCRIB SANDWICH

Steps:

• Mix rub ingredients extremely well in small bowl, set aside.
• Remove membranes from backs of ribs using a spoon to scrape up a corner to get it started. Pull back and remove in one long piece. Discard. Spray inside of large sheet of heavy-duty foil with butter-flavored cooking spray. Place whole slabs of ribs onto foil meaty sides-up. Coat top sides well using up half of the rub. Turn over and coat bone sides with rest of rub. Match up sides of foil and fold down repeatedly until touching meat. Roll up ends to seal well. Be careful not to tear or poke holes in foil.
• Place package onto foil-lined baking sheet. Marinate for several hours, overnight (best), or bake now in preheated 300ºF oven for 2½ hours.
• While ribs are slow-roasting, add bbq sauce ingredients into a small saucepan, bring just to a boil over medium heat, turn down to low, and cook and stir for 1 minute. Remove from heat and cover.
• When ribs are done, remove from oven and open packages carefully. With a paring knife in one hand, and tongs in the other, slice the top of each bone straight across to open the thin skin and meat attached, pull bones from meat with tongs, making sure you leave no pieces of bone with the meat. They should come out very easily, especially if you pull straight up from the small end of the bone. With a very large spatula, lift each slab of boneless rib meat (all in one piece if you can), and place onto a clean foil-lined baking sheet. Coat deboned sides well with bbq sauce. Place back into oven and bake for 3 minutes. Remove and carefully turn pieces over, the meaty side-up now, coat with rest of barbecue sauce, and bake again for 3 minutes. *You can always save back a little sauce for dipping if you'd like.
• Slice into sections, place onto bottoms of lightly warmed italian rolls, top with sliced onion and pickles. Slice in half at a slight angle if desired, and serve!
