For the best taste prepare the sauce a day ahead to blend flavors - although I have 6 servings listed for these ribs, my DS and DS could eat the whole thing just between themselves they are that delicious! I have made this recipe using side ribs also but I suggest to boil them first for about 20 minutes before cooking them in the oven for side ribs, I have to say that back ribs are better - I always most always serve these ribs with my Kittencal's Famous Coleslaw - you will *love* these ribs! Ingredients:
3 racks of baby-back pork ribs |
salt and pepper (can use seasoning salt) |
2 cups of prepared barbecue sauce (recipe below) |
2 cups ketchup |
1 small onion, minced |
1 tablespoon minced fresh garlic |
4 cups water |
1 cup cider vinegar |
2 tablespoons paprika |
1 tablespoon honey |
1/4 cup dark brown sugar |
1/4 cup chili powder |
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice |
3 tablespoons worcestershire sauce |
1 -2 teaspoon liquid smoke (to taste) (optional) |
black pepper |
Directions:
1. Prepare this sauce a day ahead and chill overnight.
2. In a saucepan combine all ingredients and bring to a slow boil, stirring occasionally to prevent from scorching (about 30-35 minutes).
3. You can strain the sauce if desired to remove the onion and garlic, that is optional.
4. Cool to about room temperature; cover and chill overnight or up to 2 days.
5. Sprinkle ribs with salt and pepper, then let the ribs sit out for 30 minutes at room temperature before baking.
6. Set oven to 350 degrees.
7. Grease a large baking sheet/s.
8. Place the ribs (meat side up) on baking sheet.
9. Bake the ribs for 30 minutes.
10. Remove the ribs and brush on about 1/4 cup prepared sauce over each rack of ribs; return to oven and continue to bake for 20 minutes longer.
11. After 20 minutes, remove and brush another 1/4 cup over each rack, place back in the oven for another 20 minuters.
12. Repeat again using 1/4 cup sauce this time for about 25-30 minutes (100 minutes baking time in total).
13. Cut the ribs into thirds and arrange on a serving platter; rub a bit more sauce over the top of the ribs and serve!
