Provided by Christine Bucher

Categories     Dinner     Lunch     Main Course

Time 5h10m

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 tablespoons sweet paprika
1 tablespoon five spice powder or store-bought
1 slab ribs
¾ teaspoon Morton Coarse Kosher Salt ((¼ teaspoon per pound of meat))
2 tablespoons mayonnaise
3 tablespoons apple juice
½ cup ketchup
½ cup honey
¼ cup soy sauce
2 tablespoons rice vinegar
1 tablespoon brown sugar
2 teaspoons finely minced ginger
2 teaspoons garlic powder
1 teaspoon sesame oil

Steps:

  • Prep. To create the five-spice dry rub, combine the sweet paprika and five spice powder in a small bowl and blend well (now it's a six-spice rub!).
  • Remove the membrane from the slab of ribs (read more on removing the membrane here).
  • Season the slab of ribs with kosher salt. If you can, give the salt 1 to 2 hours to be absorbed. The process of salting in advance is called dry brining. The rule of thumb is ½ teaspoon of kosher salt per pound of meat, but ribs consist of only about 50% meat, so use about ¼ teaspoon per pound. You can simply eyeball it by sprinkling on the same amount of salt you would sprinkle on the ribs if they were served to you unseasoned.
  • Fire up. Prepare a smoker for indirect cooking. Alternatively, you can set up a charcoal grill for 2-zone cooking by placing a chimney full of lit charcoal briquets on one side of the grill's charcoal grate in order to create direct and indirect cooking zones. Adjust the smoker or grill vents to bring the temperature to about 225°F (107.2°C) and add three to four chunks of your favorite smoking wood to the charcoal for flavor. On a gas grill, adjust the temperature knobs so that one half of the grill is off and the other half is heated enough to maintain a temperature of approximately 225°F (107.2°C) on the indirect side.
  • Once the smoker or grill is ready, brush both sides of ribs with mayonnaise and lightly season with the five-spice dry rub.
  • Cook. Place the slab of ribs meat side up on the main cooking grate as far away from the heat source as possible. Cover the smoker or grill. Allow the ribs to smoke until the meat just begins to shrink back from the ends of the bones, about 3½ hours.
  • Lay out two double layers of heavy-duty aluminum foil approximately eight inches (203.2 mm) longer than the ribs. Lay the slab of ribs on the foil meat side down. Fold up the sides of the foil to create a boat, pour in the apple juice, and loosely seal the foil.
  • Place the foiled ribs sealed side up on the smoker or grill and cook until the meat shrinks back from the ends of the bones by ¼ to ½ inch (6.4 to 12.7 mm), about 1 hour.
  • Make the sauce. While the ribs smoke, make the soy ginger BBQ sauce by combining the ketchup, honey, soy sauce, rice vinegar, brown sugar, ginger, garlic powder, and sesame oil in a small saucepan. Simmer the sauce over medium-high heat while stirring frequently until thickened, about 10 minutes.
  • Cook. Remove the ribs from the smoker or grill and cautiously open the foil packet to allow the steam to escape. Gently remove the ribs from the foil and set them back on the smoker or grill meat side up. Cover the smoker or grill and allow the ribs to cook until tender but not falling off the bone, about 20 minutes. We prefer to use the "bend test." Use tongs to pick up one end of the slab of ribs, then bend them slightly. If they are ready, the slab will bow until the meat starts to crack on the surface.
  • When they are ready, brush sauce on both sides of the ribs and turn them meat side up on the smoker or grill. Cover the smoker or grill and cook until the sauce sets and becomes tacky, 3 to 4 minutes.
  • Serve. Remove the ribs from the smoker or grill, then slice and serve.

ST. LOUIS-STYLE GRILLED RIBS



St. Louis-Style Grilled Ribs image

Curry powder is the secret ingredient in my special barbecue rub. It, along with a handful of other dried spices that I always keep in my pantry, gives such intense flavor to these meaty ribs that you don't even need sauce. They are fall-off-the-bone tender.

Categories     main-dish

Time 6h15m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 slabs St. Louis style ribs (5 to 6 pounds each)
1 1/2 cups Dijon mustard
1 cup Miss Brown's Rib Rub, recipe follows
1 cup apple juice
Barbecue sauce, optional
1/3 cup garlic powder
1/3 cup onion powder
1/3 cup smoked paprika
1/3 cup dark brown sugar
2 tablespoons curry powder
2 tablespoons kosher salt
1 tablespoon freshly ground black pepper
2 teaspoons celery seeds
2 teaspoons chili powder
2 teaspoons ground cumin

Steps:

  • Prepare a grill for indirect cooking (with one side lit and the other side unlit) and heat to between 230 and 235 degrees F.
  • Brush the ribs on both sides with the Dijon mustard. Rub both sides with Miss Brown's Rib Rub.
  • Place the ribs on the unlit side of the grill. Close the lid and cook until beginning to brown, about 45 minutes. Uncover and spritz with the apple juice in a spray bottle. Close the lid and cook for 3 more hours. Wrap the ribs tightly with aluminum foil and cook until the ribs begin to become tender, 1 more hour.
  • Unwrap the ribs and cook until very tender, 30 minutes to 1 hour longer. (Brush on sauce if you'd like during last hour of cooking.) Remove the ribs from the grill. Let stand for 5 minutes, then slice and serve.

OVEN BARBECUED ST. LOUIS STYLE RIBS



Oven Barbecued St. Louis Style Ribs image

BEGIN with the sauce recipe several hours before you plan serving. The first steps are making a BBQ sauce. It takes some time to thicken. This is the only way to make ribs without a grill. The sauce recipe delivers a sweet-sour tang with a little bite from the vinegar. The ribs always turn out "fallin' off the bone" tender. Do not be afraid of the amount of ingredients in this recipe. The BBQ sauce can be used on anything. (For an easier time, use a commercial sauce.) After some reviews I have read, I need to revise my recipe. Boiling or simmering the sauce helps to draw flavor by allowing it to thicken or cook off the liquid leaving a condensed sauce. This is called "reducing." You are literally making your own BBQ sauce.

  • Prepare the ribs: Remove the membrane from the back of the ribs to help the sauce penetrate the meat. You can also trim off any excess fat.
  • Use a flavorful rub: A good rub will help to enhance the flavor of the ribs. Apply the rub to the ribs at least 30 minutes before cooking.
  • Cook the ribs slowly and low: This will help to tenderize the meat and allow the flavors to develop. Cook the ribs for at least 2 hours, or until they are fall-off-the-bone tender.
  • Make a delicious sauce: There are many different recipes for St. Louis style barbecue sauce, but they all typically contain a combination of tomato sauce, vinegar, sugar, and spices. You can also add other ingredients, such as soy sauce, ginger, or garlic, to taste.
  • Baste the ribs with sauce: Baste the ribs with sauce every 30 minutes or so during the cooking process. This will help to keep the ribs moist and flavorful.
