Time 4h30m

Yield 1 slab ribs

Number Of Ingredients 23

2 slabs ribs
2 cups apple juice
1/2 cup dark brown sugar
1/4 cup garlic salt
3 1/2 tablespoons onion salt
1/4 cup paprika
1 tablespoon chili powder
1/2 tablespoon cayenne pepper
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
2 cups ketchup
2/3 cup dark brown sugar
1/2 cup distilled vinegar
1/2 cup water
2 tablespoons honey
4 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
4 teaspoons liquid smoke
2 teaspoons garlic powder
2 teaspoons onion powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/8 teaspoon celery seed

Steps:

  • To prepare the rub: Combine all rub ingredients in a bowl and stir to mix.
  • Preheat a grill or the oven to 250 degrees F.
  • Place slab of ribs bone side up on table. Slide a knife under the membrane and against the end bone to separate the two. With a dry paper towel or rag, grasp the edge of the thin membrane and pull. The entire membrane should separate from rib. Note: This will result in a more tender rib and will allow your barbecue flavors to better penetrate the meat.
  • Sprinkle 1/4 cup of rub over each slab, front and back. Place ribs, meat side up, on the grill or in the oven for 2 hours. Remove and place each slab on a doubled aluminum foil square, meat side down. Pour 1 cup apple juice over each slab while wrapping tightly in foil. Cook for 1 more hour at 250 degrees F. Remove slabs from foil and sprinkle with another 1/4 cup of rub. Cook an additional 1 hour, uncovered, until ribs are tender.
  • In the meantime, mix together the barbecue sauce ingredients in a saucepan. Stir to mix and bring to a simmer and cook 10-15 minutes. Let sauce cool.
  • To finish: Remove ribs from the grill or oven, paint with finishing glaze and cook for another 15 minutes. Cut and serve with additonal sauce.

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h45m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

5 pounds pork spareribs, cut into slabs
1/3 cup Lone Star Dry Rub, recipe follows
1 1/2 cups mesquite or hickory wood chips, soaked in water for 30 minutes, and drained
2 cups classic BBQ sauce
2 tablespoons chili powder
1 tablespoon garlic salt
1 tablespoon sweet Hungarian paprika
1 tablespoon freshly ground black pepper
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper

Steps:

  • Rub the spareribs with the dry rub. Wrap each slab tightly in a double thickness of aluminum foil. Set aside while building the fire.
  • Build a charcoal fire in an outdoor grill and let burn until the coals are covered with white ash. In a gas grill, preheat on High, then adjust to Low.
  • Place the foil-wrapped ribs on the grill and cover. Cook, turning occasionally, until the ribs are tender, about 1 hour. Unwrap the ribs and set aside.
  • Add more charcoal to the fire and let burn until medium-hot. You should be able to hold your hand at grill level for about 3 seconds. Sprinkle the drained chips over the coals. In a gas grill: keep the heat on Low. Place the drained chips in the metal chip box. Or, wrap the chips in aluminum foil, pierce a few holes in the foil, and place on the heat source.
  • Lightly oil the cooking grate. Place the ribs on the grill, brush with sauce, and cover. Grill for 5 minutes. Turn, brush with more sauce. Cover and continue grilling until the ribs are glazed, about 5 more minutes.
  • Cut between the bones into individual ribs. Serve hot, with any remaining sauce passed on the side.
  • Mix all the ingredients together in a bowl or a jar. Use immediately or cover and store in a cool, dry place for up to three months.
  • Yield: 1/3 cup
