Steps:
- Rinse the rib slabs in cold water, and pat dry with paper towels. Place the slabs on a clean chopping board. Using your fingers, pull off the thick white membrane. Use a small knife to trim off the excess fat and meat. Using a sharp knife, trim off the brisket bone. Season both sides of the slab with salt and Neely's Barbecue Seasoning, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or up to a day in advance.
- When you're ready to cook the ribs, preheat the grill to 250°F, preferably using a combination of hickory wood and charcoal. Place the slab on the grill away from (not directly over) the flame (using indirect heat). Cook the slab curl-side up for approximately 2 1/2 hours. Flip the slab over to finish the cooking, about 1 more hour, or until you get the full "bend" in the slab (see Tony's Tip).
- For dry ribs, pull the ribs off the grill, and sprinkle more Neely's Barbecue Seasoning over the entire slab. Cut between the bones and serve. For wet ribs, pull the ribs off the grill, and pour Neely's Barbecue Sauce over the slab. Slice between the bones into individual portions, and serve.
Tips:
- Choose the right ribs. For Memphis-style ribs, use baby back ribs or spare ribs. Baby back ribs are leaner and have a shorter cooking time, while spare ribs are more meaty and have a richer flavor.
- Prepare the ribs. Remove the membrane from the back of the ribs. This will help the ribs cook more evenly and will prevent them from becoming tough. If using spare ribs, also remove the flap of meat from the bottom of the ribs.
- Make a flavorful rub. A good rub will add flavor and help to create a crispy crust on the ribs. Look for a rub that contains a mix of sweet, savory, and smoky spices.
- Smoke the ribs low and slow. The ideal temperature for smoking ribs is between 225 and 250 degrees Fahrenheit. This will allow the ribs to cook slowly and evenly, resulting in tender and juicy meat.
- Baste the ribs. During the last hour of cooking, baste the ribs with a mixture of apple cider vinegar, brown sugar, and melted butter. This will help to keep the ribs moist and will add a delicious glaze.
- Let the ribs rest before serving. Once the ribs are cooked, let them rest for at least 10 minutes before serving. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in more flavorful ribs.
Conclusion:
Memphis-style ribs are a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. By following these tips, you can make ribs that are fall-off-the-bone tender and packed with flavor. So fire up your smoker and get ready to enjoy some amazing ribs!
