WORLD FAMOUS RENDEZVOUS DRY BBQ RIBS
From Nick Vergos of Charlie Vergos Rendezvous restaurant, Memphis, Tenn. Dry BBQ ribs don't use sauce but are served as grilled meat sprinkled with dry rub. You can still keep some sauce around if you change your mind (sauced dry ribs are good too!).

Steps:
- Whisk together the vinegar, water and dry seasoning to make a basting sauce (seasoning rub posted in my other recipes).
- Set grill rack to 18 inches above the coals.
- Placing ribs curls/bones pointing down, cook ribs over direct heat at about 325F to 350F until the underside is golden (about 30 minutes), basting several times while cooking.
- Flip the ribs, and continue cooking, and basting, until golden brown (about another 30 minutes).
- Meat is done when it is so hot it burns your fingers to touch.
- Do a final baste, sprinkle with some more seasoning, and serve.
Tips:
- Choose the right ribs: Baby back ribs are the most popular choice for dry ribs, but you can also use spare ribs. Spare ribs have more meat and a richer flavor, but they take longer to cook.
- Remove the membrane: The membrane is a thin, silvery layer that covers the underside of the ribs. It can make the ribs tough, so it's important to remove it before cooking.
- Season the ribs well: Dry ribs rely on a good rub for flavor. Use a combination of spices and herbs that you like.
- Cook the ribs slowly and low: Dry ribs should be cooked slowly and low over indirect heat. This will help them to develop a crispy crust and a tender interior.
- Baste the ribs occasionally: Basting the ribs with a mixture of melted butter and spices will help to keep them moist and flavorful.
- Let the ribs rest before serving: Once the ribs are cooked, let them rest for a few minutes before serving. This will help the juices to redistribute throughout the meat.
Conclusion:
Dry ribs are a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. By following these tips, you can make dry ribs that are sure to impress your friends and family.
