Move ribs to direct medium heat and cook until pork is tender, turning and basting occasionally, 20-40 minutes longer.

BABY BACK RIBS

Steps:

• Tear off 4 pieces of aluminum foil big enough to enclose each portion of ribs. Spray each piece of foil with vegetable cooking spray. Brush the ribs liberally with barbeque sauce and place each portion in its own piece of foil. Wrap tightly and refrigerate for at least 8 hours, or overnight.
• Preheat oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C).
• Bake ribs wrapped tightly in the foil at 300 degrees F (150 degrees C) for 2 1/2 hours. Remove from foil and add more sauce, if desired.

BABY BACK RIBS

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the onions, garlic, chili powder and 1/2 teaspoon salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions are softened, about 10 minutes. Add the bourbon and cook until slightly reduced, 2 to 3 minutes. Then add the ketchup, coffee, 1/2 cup water, brown sugar, cider vinegar and Worcestershire. Increase the heat and bring to a boil; lower the heat and simmer until slightly thickened and the onions are tender, about 25 minutes. Transfer the mixture to a blender and puree until smooth (be careful when blending hot liquids). Transfer the sauce to a bowl and cool slightly.
• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with heavy-duty aluminum foil.
• Sprinkle the ribs with salt and pepper, and coat the racks on both sides with about 2 cups total of the barbecue sauce (reserve the remaining sauce). Put the ribs, bone-side down, on the prepared baking sheet and wrap each rack with foil. Bake until the meat is tender and pulling away from the bone, about 2 hours.
• Remove the foil and turn the ribs bone-side up. Preheat the broiler to high. Brush the bone side of the ribs with half of the remaining sauce, and broil until lightly charred in spots, about 5 minutes. Turn the ribs over, brush with the remaining sauce and broil again until charred stops on top, another 5 minutes. Cut the racks in half and serve.

BAKED BABY BACK RIBS

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine the brown sugar, chipotle chile powder, salt, onion powder, garlic powder, seafood seasoning and black pepper.
• Place each slab of ribs on a piece of aluminum foil large enough to fold over and seal, then place on a baking sheet. Do not seal the ribs in the foil yet (see Cook's Note). Generously sprinkle the dry rub on both sides of the ribs. Place in the refrigerator, meat-side down and uncovered, for at least 1 hour. Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F.
• In a small bowl, combine the apple cider, apple cider vinegar, maple syrup, Worcestershire and minced garlic. Pour half the liquid over each slab and tightly seal each in the aluminum foil, crimping the edges to make a packet.
• Transfer the foil packets and baking sheet to the oven and bake until the meat is tender and starts to pull away from the bones, about 2 hours.
• Remove the sheet pan from the oven. Carefully open the aluminum packets and pour the braising liquid into a small saucepan. Bring the liquid to a simmer over medium heat until it becomes a thick and syrupy glaze, about 4 minutes.
• While the braising liquid reduces, line a baking sheet with foil and gently transfer the ribs to it. Position a rack on the top level of the oven and preheat the broiler.
• Using a pastry brush, generously brush the ribs with about half the glaze. Place the ribs under the broiler for about 1 minute. Brush with the remaining glaze and return to the broiled until charred in spots, about 1 minute more. Slice each rack between the bones into 2-rib portions and serve.

BABY (GOT) BACK RIBS

Steps:

• Rinse off ribs and pat dry.
• I recommend cutting the rack in half or into thirds to make moving from pan to plate when cooked easier. You may also remove the membrane if desired.
• Season ribs with desired dry rub. At this point you can allow ribs to sit overnight for the rub to be absorbed better, however this isn't necessary.
• Preheat oven to 250 degrees.
• Use a deep pan with a cooking rack in it and pour water into pan. Do not allow water to reach the rack.
• Put ribs on the rack so they sit above the water.
• Cover the pan with two layers of aluminum foil and make a tight seal around the edges.
• Put the pan in the oven and cook for 6 to 8 hours for ribs that will fall apart and need to be eaten with a fork. Cook 4 to 5 hours for ribs that will be very tender but remain on the bone.
• When done cooking for desired length of time remove from oven and remove foil. CAREFUL the pan will have lots of very hot steam built up and it can easily burn you. I recommend using tongs to pull the foil back.
• Turn your broiler on to high and have your oven rack in the upper half of the oven.
• Leave ribs in the pan and brush with your favorite barbeque sauce.
• Place the pan of ribs under the broiler and broil until the sauce starts to caramelize. Keep an eye on it to make sure it doesn't burn.
• When the sauce has fully caramelized remove from the oven and serve.
