Cheater Barbecue Ribs Recipes

BARBECUE RIBS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Cut spareribs into serving size portions, wrap in double thickness of foil, and bake for 1 1/2 hours. Unwrap, and drain drippings. (I usually freeze the drippings to use later in soups.) Place ribs in a large roasting pan.
• In a bowl, mix together brown sugar, ketchup, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, rum, chile sauce, garlic, mustard, and pepper. Coat ribs with sauce and marinate at room temperature for 1 hour, or refrigerate overnight.
• Preheat grill for medium heat. Position grate four inches above heat source.
• Brush grill grate with oil. Place ribs on grill, and cook for 30 minutes, basting with marinade.

BEST BARBECUE RIBS EVER

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F. In a roasting pan, combine the broth and vinegar. Add the ribs to the pan. Cover with foil and tightly seal. Bake 2 hours. Remove the ribs from the pan and place them on a platter. Pour the liquid from the pan into a saucepan and bring to a boil. Lower the heat to a simmer and cook until reduced by half. Add the barbecue sauce.
• Preheat an outdoor grill to medium high. Put the ribs on the grill and cook about 5 minutes on each side, until browned and slightly charred. Cut the ribs between the bones and toss them in a large bowl with the sauce. Serve hot.

BBQ RIBS WITH KILLER MAC AND CHEESE

Steps:

• For the boil: Add the vinegar, paprika, salt, Worcestershire, cayenne, cumin, black pepper, onion and garlic to a large pot, then add the ribs and cover with water until just submerged. Turn the heat to high and bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer and cook until the ribs are tender, but still on the bone, 45 minutes to 2 hours.
• For the sauce: Meanwhile, add olive oil to coat a medium pot and turn the heat to medium-high. When the oil is shimmering, add the onion and cook until it begins to soften, a few minutes. Then add the garlic, bell pepper and jalapeno. Cook until the vegetables soften, about 8 minutes. Add the tomatoes, ketchup, brown sugar, vinegar, hot sauce, molasses, black pepper, liquid smoke, lemon juice and 1 cup water and stir to combine. Raise the heat to high and bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer and cook until it coats the back of a spoon, 30 minutes to 2 hours. Taste and season with salt and pepper as needed.
• Heat a grill or grill pan over high heat.
• Remove the ribs from the pot and place on the grill. Cook until browned and grill marks appear, about 10 minutes. Flip over and grill on the opposite side. Brush the tops liberally with BBQ sauce and cook until the alternate side has grill marks. Flip again and coat with sauce. Continue to brush with sauce and flip every few minutes, until the sauce begins to caramelize, and a deep crust is formed. Remove the ribs from the grill and slice ribs to serve.
• Drizzle a bit of olive oil in a large saucepan. Add the bacon and set the pan over medium heat; cook, stirring occasionally, until brown and crisp, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from the pan and drain on paper towels. Do not discard the bacon fat: Reserve that deliciousness!
• Add the butter and onion to the pan with the bacon fat; season with salt and cook until the onion is soft and aromatic, 4 to 6 minutes. Add the flour and cook, stirring frequently, until the mixture looks like wet sand, about 3 minutes.
• Slowly whisk in the milk, mustard and a few shakes of Tabasco. Season with salt and bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Simmer until the mixture is slightly thicker than heavy cream, 6 to 8 more minutes.
• Meanwhile, bring a large pot of well-salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook 1 minute less than the instructions on the package suggest. Taste it: It should be toothsome, with just a little nugget of hard pasta still in the center-this is al dente. Drain the pasta.
• Add the Cheddar, fontina and Parmesan to the milk mixture and whisk to combine. Taste and adjust the seasoning, if needed, adding a little more milk if the mixture seems too thick. Stir in the cooked bacon and pasta. The mixture should be very creamy and flavorful. Serve immediately. (If making ahead, transfer to a baking dish or ramekins, then reheat in a 375 degree oven.)

ULTIMATE CHEATER PORK RIBS

Steps:

• HEAT eat the oven to 325°F.
• MIX the dry rub with the brown sugar in a small bowl.
• PLACE each baby back rack on a large (24 to 30 inches long) sheet of heavy-duty aluminum foil. Brush each rack with a light coating of bottled smoke. Spread the sweet rub over both sides of each rack. Seal the racks in the foil. (If time allows, refrigerate them for a few hours or overnight.)
• PLACE the sealed racks on a couple of baking sheets and put them in the oven. While the ribs are cooking, make some barbecue sauce and set it aside.
• After 1 1/2 hours, Pull out the ribs and carefully unseal the foil. The escaping steam will be hot. Cut into a rib or two and check the meat for doneness and tenderness. If you prefer more tender meat that pulls away from the bone with less resistance, reseal the foil and put the ribs back in the oven for 15 to 30 minutes.
• When the ribs are done to your liking, Take them out of the oven to serve or to sauce. If saucing, turn on the oven broiler. Unseal the foil, pour off the meat juice, and discard it. Brush some of the sauce onto the ribs. Broil the ribs about 4 inches from the heat source for about 5 minutes. Watch carefully while the sauce caramelizes and do not allow it to burn.
• LAY the ribs on a cutting board and separate them into sections of 1 to 4 ribs. Serve with the remaining sauce on the side.

CHEATER'S BRISKET

Steps:

• Submerge the wood chips, if using, in a bowl of water and set aside to soak.
• Combine the sugar, paprika, salt, pepper and cumin in a small bowl, then rub all over the brisket, coating it entirely. Set aside at room temperature. (You may apply the rub the night before cooking and allow it to season, wrapped, in the refrigerator.)
• Build a fire on one side of a charcoal grill, or set one of the burners on a gas grill to high. When all coals are covered with gray ash or the gas grill is hot, place the brisket, fat side up, on the cooler side of the grill, add a handful of the soaked wood chips to the hot side and put the cover down. Cook for 15 or 20 minutes. Flip the brisket over, add the second handful of wood chips to the hot side and cook an additional 20 minutes or so. Remove brisket and wrap tightly in foil, fat side up.
• Heat oven to 225. Put the brisket packet in a large roasting pan, and place in the oven to cook, unattended, for the next 9 to 10 hours, until extremely tender. (The internal temperature of the meat will be around 165 degrees.) Unwrap the meat carefully, still in the roasting pan, and save the accumulated juices. Slice against the grain and pour the juice on top of the result. Consider serving with baked beans. Use your own recipe or one from nytimes.com.

THE EASIEST WAY TO MAKE GREAT BBQ RIBS RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Make the smoke bombs: Add the wood chips to a bowl and cover with water. Let soak for 1 hour, then drain. Place 1 cup of the damp wood chips on a piece of aluminum foil and fold into a packet. Poke multiple holes in the top with a toothpick or fork. Repeat with the remaining wood chips, creating 4 packets total.
• Make the sauce: Add the ketchup, brown sugar, molasses, apple cider vinegar, Worcestershire, salt, pepper, and smoked paprika to a small pot over medium heat, whisking to combine. Once the sauce begins to boil, reduce heat to low and simmer for 15 minutes. Remove from the heat and let cool to room temperature.
• Make the rub: In a medium bowl, whisk together the brown sugar, salt, pepper, cumin, onion powder, paprika, cayenne, ground mustard, and garlic powder.
• On a large cutting board, pat the ribs dry with paper towels. If necessary, remove the membrane on the bone-side of the ribs by using a paring knife to gently loosen and pulling it up in one sheet.
• Generously season the ribs all over with the dry rub.
• Wrap the ribs in aluminum foil until completely covered.
• Preheat the grill to 300°F (150°C) with the lid closed.
• Place the foil-wrapped ribs over indirect heat and close the lid. Cook for 2½ hours, until the meat is tender and starting to pull away from the bone, flipping every 30 minutes.
• Remove the ribs from the grill and let rest for 10 minutes. Meanwhile, carefully remove the grates and place the smoke bombs over the flames. Close the lid and let smoke build up for 10 minutes.
• Unwrap the ribs and discard the foil.
• Baste one side of the ribs with the sauce and place directly on the grill, sauce side down. Baste the other side, now facing up. Continue to flip and baste every 5 minutes for 15 minutes total.
