Yield 4 large/8 small portions
Number Of Ingredients 21
Steps:
- Remove the thin white membrane off of the bone-side of the ribs. Mix together the brown sugar, dry mustard, cayenne, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt and pepper in a small bowl. Massage the rub into the ribs and let sit for 1 hour or up to overnight.
- If cooking on the grill, place the ribs meat-side down next to medium-hot coals that are about 225 degrees F. The indirect heat will cook them slower, making them tender. Allow to cook for 1 hour. Turn ribs every half hour and baste with the Kansas City Barbeque Sauce. Cook until the ribs are tender, about 3 to 4 hours.
- If cooking indoors, place in a roasting pan with a rack. Slather the ribs with the Kansas City Barbeque Sauce and tent a piece of aluminum foil over them. In a preheated 350 degrees F. oven, place the ribs, basting with the sauce every 30 minutes and removing the foil for the last 30 minutes and cooking until fork tender, about 2 1/2 to 3 hours.
- In a small sauce pot on medium-high heat, heat the oil and add the onion, cooking until translucent.
- Add the remaining ingredients in a large bowl and mix together. Add to sauce pan and let simmer for 30 to 45 minutes. Use to baste the pork spare ribs.

Steps:
- Prepare the grill for indirect heat using hickory and charcoal and heat to 250 degrees F.
- Place the ribs on a clean cutting board and pull off the membrane, the thin fatty skin that lines the underside of the ribs. Trim the ribs of excess fat and meat.

- For the glaze: Add the maple syrup, apple juice, brown sugar, vinegar, mustard, chile powder, cayenne, salt and pepper to a medium saucepan and bring to a simmer. Cook until syrupy, about 8 minutes, stirring with a wooden spoon on occasion.
- Remove the ribs from the refrigerator. Place the ribs meatier-side-down on the grill away from the coals. Cook the beef 3 hours, adding more coals as needed. Turn and cook until the ribs "bend" and the meat easily separates from the bone using a fork, about 45 minutes more. Brush on the glaze to the ribs and cook for another 5 minutes. Remove and slice into individual ribs.

My husband and I saw this on Food Networks Down Home With the Neeley's and had to try it. I am so glad we did! It is awesome!!! The ONLY way we will make ribs anymore!!!

Steps:
- Mix all the dry rub ingredients together.
- Rub desired amount onto a rack of baby back ribs.
- Cover with plastic wrap and let sit in refrigerator for 24 hours before grilling.
- Heat your charcoal grill and prepare it to use your smoker attachment. If you do not have a smoker (we don't) just situate the charcoals to one side of the grill.
- When grill is heated and the flames go away place rack of ribs, skin side up, on the grill on the opposite side that the charcoals are on. This makes for cooking with indirect heat.
- Cook ribs on grill for 5 or 6 hours, turning and basting with your favorite BBQ sauce (ours is Sweet Baby Rays hickory and brown sugar) every 30 minutes. Temperature of grill should be around 225 degrees.

Steps:
- Combine all of the sauce ingredients in a stockpot or large Dutch oven. Bring to a boil over high heat, stirring frequently to prevent sticking. Reduce temperature to low and simmer, uncovered, for at least 30 minutes. Meanwhile, trim the spare ribs, removing the upper brisket bone and any excess fat; this will produce a St. Louis-style rib. Rinse the ribs and season with Neely's Seasoning, and then cover and refrigerate for 4 to 12 hours.
- Indirect cooking in a barbecue pit is recommended to prevent burning. Cook at 250 degrees F (curled side of ribs facing up) for the first 3 hours, and then increase the temperature to 300 degrees F for the final 3 hours. Baste the ribs only during the last 30 minutes of cooking to prevent sauce from burning.

PAT'S RIBS WITH PEACH BBQ SAUCE
"These ribs are perfect for a throw-down-and-wow-your-guests summer barbecue," say the Neelys. "They are sweet and smoky with just a hint of spice. The pureed peaches provide the sweetness and the hickory gives us that smoke. Our secret ingredient is the smoked paprika, which gives the ribs another layer of flavor and smoky sweetness."

Steps:
- Ribs:
- For the dry rub: Add the salt, paprika, chile powder, garlic powder and brown sugar to a bowl and stir until thoroughly incorporated. Keep the rub in an airtight container for up to 6 months.
- For the ribs: Rinse and dry the ribs. Put them on a clean cutting board and pull off the thin fatty skin that lines the underside of the ribs. Trim the ribs of all excess fat. Reserve 2 tablespoons peach rub (1 for ribs and 1 for sauce), then liberally sprinkle each side with the remaining rub and wrap the ribs in plastic. Refrigerate for at least 8 hours so the flavors can permeate the meat.
- Fill a grill with the chips and briquettes and preheat them to 250 degrees F. Put the ribs, meatier-side down, over indirect heat and cook for 3 hours with the grill cover down. Turn the slabs and cook until the ribs bend easily, about 1 hour. At this point, remove them from the grill. Sprinkle the slabs with 1 tablespoon reserved peach rub and slice it into portions. Cut each slab into individual ribs and coat with Gina's Peach BBQ Sauce. Arrange on a serving platter and serve.
- Melt the butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the garlic and shallots and saute until tender, about 3 minutes. Season with salt, pepper and peach rub. Stir with a wooden spoon until fragrant. Stir in the ketchup, peach nectar, apple cider vinegar, mustard, Worcestershire and lemon juice. Bring the ingredients to a boil, and then reduce the heat to a simmer. Let cook until thickened, about 30 minutes, stirring occasionally. Adjust the seasonings if necessary, and enjoy.

Tips:
- Choose the right ribs: Look for ribs that are meaty and have good marbling. Avoid ribs that are too fatty or have a lot of connective tissue.
- Trim the ribs: Remove any excess fat or connective tissue from the ribs. This will help the ribs cook evenly and will also make them more tender.
- Season the ribs: Season the ribs liberally with a dry rub. The dry rub will help to flavor the ribs and will also help to create a crispy crust.
- Smoke the ribs: Smoke the ribs over indirect heat at a low temperature (225-250 degrees Fahrenheit) for 3-4 hours. This will help to cook the ribs slowly and evenly.
- Baste the ribs: Baste the ribs with a mixture of melted butter, apple cider vinegar, and brown sugar every 30 minutes or so. This will help to keep the ribs moist and will also add flavor.
- Let the ribs rest: Let the ribs rest for at least 10 minutes before serving. This will help the ribs to retain their juices.
Conclusion:
Neely's dry BBQ ribs are a delicious and easy-to-make dish. The ribs are cooked slowly and evenly over indirect heat, which results in a tender and flavorful meat. The dry rub gives the ribs a crispy crust and the basting sauce adds a sweet and tangy flavor. These ribs are sure to be a hit at your next barbecue or party.
