If you want some authentic "black people" ribs, it's pretty simple

Ribs
Salt
Pepper
Red Pepper Flakes
Red Wine Vinegar

Rub the ribs with the spices and let it cure overnight. Put Ribs in a glass casserole dish and pour vinegar over them.

Bake at high temp 400-425 covered with foil for 2 hours.

Uncover, and place on baking sheet

Brush on Your favorite BBQ sauce and bake another 30 mins uncovered.



Then serve it with:

Nehi-Peach Soda
Southern Style Mixed Greens
Yams
Biscuits
Watermelon


(and that's pork ribs...you'd have to give up your black card for sure cooking beef ribs)

Here I was thinking just rubbing on some hickory-smoked BBQ sauce (i.e. Heinz) would do trick...?

Whats all this baking crap? I thought they need to be cooked on an old charcoal grill that someone found in the junkyard...

They are beef ribs

My mom would always boil the ribs then put them in the oven, pretty good. Just wondering how you guys do it since it seems there are some passionate people when it comes to meat here.

I first boil my country stlye pork ribs. Don't get the boneless, they don't have enough fat and will be dry. You want moist fall off the bone ribs. I put them in a huge pot, add a 16 oz. can of beef broth broth, then fill the can with water and dump that in as well for each lb. of ribs. Turn the heat on high and bring it to a boil. When it starts to boil, cover, turn down the heat, and let them simmer for about an hour. By then they are falling off the bone. Fire up the grill and while it is getting good and hot (put down some tin foil first). Drain the pot, take out the ribs and put your favorite bbq sauce on them. Put them on the grill about 6-7 minutes each side - enough to carmalize the bbq sauce - and they are done. And they are damn good!

The key to making ribs is slow, slow, slow cooking. Smokers are the best, but can be a PITA since you need wood. And the type of wood will affect the taste.

Using an oven can be effective since it's easier to control the temperature and you can set the oven low. You want low temperature because there's so much sugar involved the sauce, etc., you don't want it to burn.

Make a dry rub (salt, pepper, cayenne, chili -- whatver you want), rub it on the ribs and refrigerate wrapped in aluminum foil for at least one hour. Overnight is better. Then also make a braising sauce (white wine, vinegar, honey, garlic). Pour the braising liquid in the foil-wrapped ribs and cook in the over at 250 degrees for 2-2.5 hours.

You can also use the liquid in the foil afterward to create a nice sauce since it'll have all the fat in it. Pour the liquid in a sauce pan and reduce to a nice, thick consistency.

Tada!

Ok, here is a recipe I love - if you can put aside your skepticism and give it a try
you won't be disappointed!

I know it sounds real hillbilly but: Kraft Orange BBQ Ribs

Basically its just:

- sheet of tinfoil
- ribs on tinfoil - bone up
- Bullseye BBQ sauce and Orange Kool-Aid mix (the sweetened powder) mixed
together to make the sauce, and then smeared generously over the ribs
- fold up the tinfoil so the sauced up ribs are in a sealed pouch
- 300F oven or med-low BBQ for 90 minutes

I used to go through all kinds of gyrations with rib recipes like simmering them in
Coke for 2 hours before BBQ'ing and different rubs and stuff - and they often
turned out good, but the amount of effort and mess for the payoff was just not
worth it. Then one day I came across this recipe and it sounded weird enough
that I had to try it.

Tender, tasty, no cleanup, no hassle!

Cool beans I tried the koolaide one because it was for me and a friend and she was coming over in a few hours so I couldn't let it cook as long. I didn't use koolaide though, didn't have any...yea yea yea...so i used some honey.
