Barbecued Ribs (The Best)

brown sugar

tbsp chili powder

tsp salt

tsp ground pepper

dry mustard

onion powder

lb (2.27 kg) pork baby back ribs

tsp chili powder

garlic powder

tbsp (28 g) butter

(180 ml) ketchup

(180 ml) apple jelly

(60 ml) apple cider vinegar

tbsp (30 ml) molasses

Dijon mustard

Worcestershire sauce

Tabasco sauce,

Salt and pepper

In a bowl, combine all the ingredients. Set aside.

On a work surface, use paper towels to peel away the white membrane (silverskin) on the back of the ribs. Place the ribs on 
a baking sheet and rub both sides generously with the spice rub. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or overnight.

With the rack in the middle position of the oven, preheat the oven to 325°F (170°C).

Wrap the ribs, two racks at a time, in heavy-duty aluminum foil. Transfer to a baking sheet. Bake for about 2 hours, or until the meat is tender.

Dry Rub

Meanwhile, in a small saucepan over medium-high heat, cook the spices in the butter for 1 minute. Add the remaining ingredients, bring to a boil and simmer over low heat for about 5 minutes or until the sauce becomes syrupy. Season with salt and pepper.

Preheat the grill, setting the burners to medium. Oil the grate.

Remove the ribs from the foil and grill for 4 to 5 minutes 
on each side, brushing with half of the barbecue sauce. Serve with the remaining sauce.

Barbecue sauce

I have made this ribs 6 times now and they turn out perfect! They are a definite crowd pleaser. My daughter always asks me to make them, thank you!!

Making for a second time, best  I've tried. Kids love them.

Sorry not sure where to write this. Is it ok to use blackstrap molasses in this recipe or is that too bitter?

This is our go-to rib recipe, and it is delicious!!  So flavourful and great to prepare ahead!  Thank you!

This is by far the best rib recipe ever!!! The low and slow technique then finishing them on the hot grill is amazing. I adjusted the oven temperature to 250 degrees for 3 hours to get an even better result at melting the fat away. We substitute unsweetened apple sauce instead of jelly for the sauce and it comes out great! Be sure to do 4 or 5 minutes a side on the grill BEFORE putting the sauce to create a nice crust!! Turn down temperature on grill after they are sauced to be sure not to burn! Phenomenal!

Superbe!  I substituted some homemade apricot jam for the apple jelly nd it was delish with the pork ribs.  All of the Ricardo recipes I've tried have been bang-on, and I'm a fan of both the tv show and the magazine.  Bravo, cher Ricardo!
