BBQ RIBS DRY RUB



BBQ Ribs Dry Rub image

This is a dry rub I've experimented with for a while. I put this on a couple racks of Pork ribs, marinaded overnight then cooked slow in my smoker. Wow did they turn out great! Wife and kids loved them. I put a homemade BBQ sauce on one rack and none on the other. Both were great but I think the one without sauce was better. Though this was cooked in a smoker, it could also be done in the oven or BBQ.

1 -2 pork spare rib racks
1 tablespoon Season-All salt
1 tablespoon kosher salt
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 teaspoon pepper
2 tablespoons chili powder
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
2 teaspoons garlic powder
2 teaspoons onion powder
1/2 teaspoon ground mustard
1 teaspoon paprika
3 cups apple juice

Steps:

  • Cover with plastic wrap or vacuum seal bag and place in the refrigerator overnight.
  • Heat smoker/cooker to at least 250°F and keep between 250-300°F.

Don't drown the ribs in juice but moisten them, about another hour or so.
  • If sauce is desired, mop it on the ribs the last 30 minutes or so of cooking.

MEMPHIS DRY-RUB RIBS



Memphis Dry-Rub Ribs image

This Juneteenth showstopper, using a dry rub from Greg Collier, the chef and co-owner of Leah & Louise in Charlotte, N.C., is an ode to the flavors of the Mississippi Delta. The smoky, sweet, salty pork ribs slow roast in the oven, yielding tender meat seasoned with a traditional barbecue dry rub. You can substitute the pork for slab beef spareribs with equally good results, or use mushrooms for a vegetarian approach. Crushed peanuts and sweet-potato pikliz make the ribs a meal.

Categories     dinner, barbecues, finger foods, meat, roasts, main course

Time 3h

Yield 3 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/2 (packed) cup dark brown sugar
1/4 cup hot paprika
2 tablespoons kosher salt
2 tablespoons onion powder
2 tablespoons garlic powder
1 tablespoon ground black pepper
1 1/2 teaspoons cumin seed
1 1/2 teaspoons dry mustard
4 pounds bone-in country pork rib rack
Crushed unsalted peanuts, for garnish (optional)

Steps:

  • Make the rub: In a large bowl, combine all rub ingredients and mix well.
  • Prepare the ribs: Rinse the pork ribs then pat dry and place on a medium sheet pan, fat side up. Coat the ribs all over with the dry rub. Place in the fridge uncovered for at least 7 hours or overnight.
  • Heat oven to 350 degrees. Line a baking sheet with foil and place a wire rack on top. Transfer ribs to rack and cook, uncovered, 1 1/2 hours. Cover with foil and cook for an additional 1 hour. The ribs will be done when they have an internal temperature of 180 degrees and the meat pulls away from the bone.
  • Let rest for 30 minutes before slicing into individual ribs. Garnish with crushed peanuts, if desired.

MEMPHIS DRY RUB RIBS (STEVEN RAICHLEN)



Memphis Dry Rub Ribs (Steven Raichlen) image

Fashioned after Charlie Vergos' famous ribs-grilled over charcoal, mopped with vinegar sauce, and coated with a dry rub just before serving. Nearly impossible to duplicate these famous ribs at home because Vergos cooks them in a one-of-a kind pit and the rub recipe is a closely guarded secret. Here is Mr. Raichlen's take on my favorite ribs.

Categories     < 4 Hours

Time 1h30m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 18

3 tablespoons sweet paprika
3 tablespoons pure chile powder
1 tablespoon salt
2 teaspoons fresh ground black pepper
2 teaspoons garlic powder
2 teaspoons onion powder
2 teaspoons dried thyme
2 teaspoons dried oregano
2 teaspoons yellow mustard seeds
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1 teaspoon celery seed
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 cup distilled white vinegar
1 tablespoon salt
2 tablespoons memphis dry rub seasonings
4 slabs baby back ribs (6-8 lb.)
salt
fresh ground black pepper

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.

KANSAS CITY SLOPPY RIBS (INCLUDES AN AWESOME DRY RUB RECIPE)



Kansas City Sloppy Ribs (Includes an Awesome Dry Rub Recipe) image

These are the BEST ribs. I think the fact that you use an awesome dry rub and make homemade BBQ sauce is a factor. I am posting the BBQ sauce separately (all recipes from Cheryl and Bill Jamison's book, "Smoke and Spice", a James Beard award winning cookbook). Try these! You won't regret it. I use the dry rub for so much more than just these ribs...great for gift giving in holiday baskets also...the rub is incredible.

Provided by Epi Curious

Categories     Pork

Time 1h15m

Yield 6 , 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup paprika
2 1/2 tablespoons ground black pepper
2 1/2 tablespoons salt
1 1/2 tablespoons chili powder
1 1/2 tablespoons garlic powder
1 1/2 tablespoons onion powder
1 -2 tablespoon cayenne pepper
8 lbs pork spareribs, St. Louis cut (trimmed of the chine bone and brisket flap)

Steps:

  • The night before you plan to grill, combine the rub ingredients in a bowl. Apply about one-third of the rub evenly to the ribs, reserving the rest. Place the slabs in a plastic bag and refrigerate them overnight.
  • Before you begin to barbecue, take the ribs from the refrigerator. Sprinkle the ribs lightly but thoroughly with rub, reserving the rest of the mixture. Let the ribs sit at room temperature for 30 to 40 minutes.
  • Smoke the ribs, or grill them, turning and sprinkling them with more dry rub about halfway through cooking. In the last 45 minutes of cooking, slather the ribs once or twice with Struttin' Sauce (recipe posted separately).
  • Allow the ribs to sit about 10 minutes before serving with more sauce alongside.
  • Note: cooking time is approximate grilling time. Since not everyone has a smoker, I allowed for that -- smoking will take much longer. I also like to parboil the ribs a bit before grilling as it makes them more tender -- obviously before marinating and applying any rub.

SWEET DRY-RUB BABY BACK RIBS - 6-QT ELECTRIC PRESSURE COOKER



Sweet Dry-Rub Baby Back Ribs - 6-QT Electric Pressure Cooker image

Tried and True, just a hint of heat. I have adapted my dry rub from from Ribs, Chops, Steaks, & Wings by Ray Lampe, and my electric pressure cooking directions from Gracie Cooks! blog. We found the original rub recipe to have way too much salt, and we reduced the cayenne pepper so toddlers wouldn't be overwhelmed. I like to keep the ribs out of the bottom liquid as much as possible, and I top it with a fresh BBQ sauce (or Heinz's Kansas City BBQ sauce was even easier and quite yummy) for finishing off the ribs either in the oven or on the grill. The pressure-cooked unglazed ribs can be frozen - we tend to make as many slabs as our P.C. can hold. Afterwards, strain the liquid, defat, and use as a marinade for a rump roast. Removing the membrane that covers the inner part of the ribs and removing excess fat accounted for most of my prep time. In the Instant Pot, it only took 15 minutes to reach pressure, and 20 for the pressure to come down naturally. (The posted "Cooking Time" is the amount of time at High Pressure (11 psi). I think it is most convenient to cook the ribs ahead and just worry about "finishing" them when you are ready to eat.

Categories     Pork

Time 1h

Yield 2 full rib racks, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

3/4 cup brown sugar
2 -4 tablespoons salt
1/4 cup paprika
2 tablespoons finely ground black pepper
2 tablespoons granulated garlic
1 tablespoon onion powder
1 tablespoon ground cumin
1 tablespoon chili powder
1 teaspoon dry mustard
1 teaspoon ground coriander or 1/2 teaspoon dried cilantro
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/2 teaspoon ground allspice
4 lbs baby back ribs (2 full racks)
12 ounces Coca-Cola
1/4-1/2 cup barbecue sauce (I like Heinz Kansas City BBQ sauce)

Steps:

  • RUB:.
  • Combine all Rub ingredients in a medium bowl.
  • RIBS:.
  • Using a full cooking sheet, prepare ribs by removing membrane that covers the inside part of the ribs. Also trim off excess fat, if any. (Check YouTube for instructive videos.).
  • Generously coat both sides of both racks of ribs.
  • In 6-quart or larger electric pressure cooker, place roasting rack in inner pot. Pour in Coca Cola. Place each rack of ribs vertically, with meaty side out, and meatier edge on top. (A 6-quart P.C. should accommodate 3 racks, and an 8-quart P.C. should handle 4 racks.).
  • Feel free to sprinkle rest of rub on ribs.
  • Put inner pot into Pressure Cooker base.
  • Secure lid.
  • INSTANT POT: Select MEAT/STEW setting, and increase time to 30 minutes. When cooking has completed, press Off, and unplug. Allow pressure to release naturally (or at least 12 minutes before venting).
  • OTHER ELECTRIC PRESSURE COOKER: Cook on HIGH pressure for 30 minutes, and allow pressure to release naturally.
  • STOVE-TOP P.C.: Please consult your manual. These normally cook at 15 psi instead of 11 psi attained by electric pressure cookers, so cooking times and Natural Pressure Release times will both be shorter. You will have to hang around to make sure the stove-top pressure cooker maintains the right pressure, however.
  • Once pressure cooker has released its pressure, remove the lid. Carefully remove the ribs with tongs. (I move the ribs to a colander to drain as I normally cook them ahead up to this point.).
  • OPTIONAL: Strain the cooking liquid and refrigerate, then remove the top fat layer. It would make a killer marinade for a rump roast. If you don't like that option, discard the cooking liquid as you see fit.
  • FINISHING:.
  • OVEN: Set to BROIL. Put racks meaty side up and glaze with BBQ sauce with a silicone basting brush. Broil for 2-5 minutes or until heated through. If you like, baste again and broil some more.
  • GRILL: Prepare grill. On BBQ mesh grate, place rib racks meaty side up and glaze with BBQ sauce with a silicone basting brush. Heat through. Baste again and heat some more if you wish.

1/4 teaspoon Sugar
3/4 cup Flour
2 cups Milk
1/4 cup Parsley
1/4 cup Grated Parmesan Cheese
Kosher Salt
Freshly Ground Black Pepper

Steps:

  • 2 1/2 pound Babyback Ribs 2 tablespoons Paprika 2 tablespoon Cayenne Pepper 1 tablespoon Freshly Ground Black Pepper 2 tablespoons Garlic Powder 2 tablespoons Onion Powder 2 tablespoons Kosher Salt 1 tablespoon Dried Oregano 1 tablespoon Dried Thyme In a medium bowl, combine all dry rub ingredients and mix thoroughly. Rub ribs all over and then place them in a baking dish. Pour the barbecue sauce over the ribs, filling the pan half way up the ribs so that they braise in the liquid. Allow to marinate for at least 1 hour. Preheat oven to 350F. Wrap ribs in foil and cook in oven for at least two hours, until meat is tender. Serve with any remaining barbecue sauce on the side and scalloped potatoes. 8 cups Tomato Sauce 2 cup Apple Cider Vinegar 2 cup Light Brown Sugar 5 tablespoons Butter 12 tablespoons Paprika 4 tablespoons Chili Powder 3 cloves Garlic (minced) 1/2 Yellow Onion (chopped) To make the sauce: In a medium saucepan over medium heat, add the butter. Once it has foamed and subsided, add the onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook an additional minute. Add the remaining ingredients and stir until thoroughly mixed. Reduce heat and simmer sauce for two hours. To make the scalloped potatoes: Preheat oven to 350F. 3 tablespoons Extra Virgin Olive Oil 3 Yellow Onions (cut into 1/4-inch thick slices) Kosher Salt Freshly Ground Black Pepper 1/4 teaspoon Sugar In a pan over medium heat, add the olive oil. Add the onions and season with a pinch of salt, ground pepper, and the sugar. Cook the onions in an even layer until caramelized, about 30 minutes. 2 1/2 pound Russet Potatoes (peeled and cut into 1/4-inch slices) 3/4 cup Flour 6 tablespoons Butter (melted) 2 cups Milk 1/4 cup Grated Parmesan Cheese 1/4 cup Parsley In a 9x13 casserole, grease lightly with butter, and add a layer of the potatoes. Alternate layers of potatoes and caramelized onions sprinkled with a large pinch of flour and drizzled with butter. Continue until almost full, then add milk to cover. Top with grated cheese. Bake until bubbling and golden brown, about 1 1/2 hours. Top with parsley to serve.

Tips:

  • Choose the right ribs. Baby back ribs are the most popular type of ribs for dry rubs, as they are more tender and flavorful than spare ribs. If you are using spare ribs, be sure to trim off the excess fat and cartilage.
  • Make sure the ribs are dry. Pat the ribs dry with paper towels before applying the rub. This will help the rub adhere to the ribs and create a better crust.
  • Apply the rub liberally. Don't be afraid to use a lot of rub. The more rub you use, the more flavor the ribs will have. Be sure to rub the ribs on all sides, including the ends.
  • Let the ribs rest. After applying the rub, let the ribs rest for at least 30 minutes. This will allow the rub to penetrate the meat and develop its flavor.
  • Cook the ribs low and slow. The best way to cook dry rub ribs is low and slow. This will help the ribs cook evenly and develop a nice crust. Cook the ribs at 225 degrees Fahrenheit for 2-3 hours, or until the meat is tender and falling off the bone.
  • Serve the ribs with your favorite sides. Dry rub ribs are delicious served with a variety of sides, such as coleslaw, potato salad, macaroni and cheese, or baked beans.

Conclusion:

Dry rub ribs are a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a flavorful and tender rack of ribs that will impress your friends and family. So next time you're looking for a delicious and hassle-free meal, give dry rub ribs a try.
