EJ'S SIMPLE OVEN-BBQ RIBS

Provided by Emeril Lagasse

Categories     main-dish

Time 3h25m

Yield 2 to 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 racks baby back ribs
6 tablespoons Emeril's Rib Rub spice blend
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 teaspoon celery salt
Emeril's Sweet Original Bam BQ Barbecue Sauce, or your favorite barbecue sauce

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F. Line a large baking sheet with a piece of aluminum foil that is large enough to cover the pan twice (you will be folding this over the ribs and sealing it).
  • Arrange the ribs, meat side up, in one layer on the prepared baking sheet. In a small bowl, combine the Rib Rub, salt, pepper, and celery salt, and stir to combine. Divide the seasoning evenly between the 2 slabs of ribs, coating them well on both sides. Fold the extra length of foil over the ribs, and seal it tightly on all sides. Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake, undisturbed, for 2 1/2 to 3 hours, or until the ribs are very tender.
  • Preheat a grill to medium-high (or leave the oven on).
  • Remove the baking sheet from the oven and peel back the foil so that the ribs are exposed. Using a basting brush or the back of a spoon, coat the meaty side of the rubs lightly with barbecue sauce. Place the slabs of ribs, meaty side up, on the grill and cook until the barbecue sauce is thickened and lightly browned, 5 to 10 minutes. (Alternatively, return the baking sheet to the oven and continue to bake the ribs, without the foil covering, until the barbecue sauce is thickened and lightly browned, 20 to 30 minutes.)
  • Plating / Assembly: Remove the ribs from the grill (or oven), and let them cool briefly. Then cut between the ribs and serve, with additional barbecue sauce on the side if desired.

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 ¾ cups white sugar
3 tablespoons brown sugar
¼ cup Hungarian sweet paprika
1 tablespoon ground black pepper
1 ½ teaspoons garlic powder
½ cup salt
2 ½ teaspoons chili powder
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper

Steps:

  • Stir together white sugar, brown sugar, paprika, black pepper, garlic powder, salt, chili powder, and cayenne pepper until blended. Store in an airtight container until ready to use.
  • To use the rub, remove the membrane on the back of the ribs, and rub both sides of the ribs with the mixture. Don't skimp on the rub! Wrap the ribs with plastic, and refrigerate overnight. Cook the ribs slowly over indirect heat for 2 hours, basting with your favorite barbeque sauce during the last 20 minutes.

Tips:

  • Generously apply the rub: Don't be shy with the rub! Use a liberal amount to ensure that the ribs are well-coated. This will help to create a flavorful crust and tender interior.
  • Let the rub soak in: Give the rub time to penetrate the meat. Letting it sit for at least 30 minutes, or even overnight, will allow the flavors to meld and create a more intense taste.
  • Use a variety of spices: Don't be afraid to experiment with different spices to create your own unique rub. Some popular options include paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, cumin, coriander, and chili powder.
  • Use brown sugar for a sweet and smoky flavor: Brown sugar helps to create a caramelized crust on the ribs, adding a sweet and smoky flavor. You can also use honey or maple syrup for a similar effect.
  • Cook the ribs low and slow: The best way to cook ribs is low and slow. This will help to break down the tough connective tissue and create fall-off-the-bone tender ribs.
  • Baste the ribs regularly: Basting the ribs with a mixture of barbecue sauce, apple cider vinegar, and water will help to keep them moist and flavorful. Do this every 30 minutes or so during the cooking process.

Conclusion:

With these tips in mind, you're sure to create delicious and fall-off-the-bone tender ribs that will be the star of any barbecue. So fire up the grill and get ready to enjoy some amazing ribs!
