Buffalo Baby Back Ribs Recipes

BBQ BISON BACK RIBS

Steps:

• Place rib portions into the bottom of a slow cooker. Cover with water. Add carrot, celery, onion, and bay leaf. Cover and cook until tender and no longer pink in the centers, 8 hours on Low or 4 hours on High.
• Meanwhile, preheat an outdoor grill for low heat and lightly oil the grate.
• Take the cooked ribs out of the slow cooker and brush generously with the BBQ sauce.
• Cook ribs on the preheated grill just until nicely browned, 15 to 20 minutes.

EASY FALL OFF THE BONE OVEN-BAKED RIBS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 275° Fahrenheit (135C).
• If the ribs still have the thin membrane covering the back of the rack, remove it. See how in the notes section below.
• Season both sides of the ribs with a generous amount of salt and pepper. If you are using a spice rub, add season the ribs with it now. Place the ribs, meat-side up, into a large roasting pan or rimmed baking sheet. (It may be necessary to cut the ribs in half for them to fit into the pan).
• Cover the pan or baking sheet tightly with aluminum foil, and then bake until the meat falls easily from the bones, 2 ½ to 3 ½ hours. We like to check the ribs after 2 hours to see how they are progressing. The ribs are done when the meat is cooked through and tender.
• While the ribs bake, make the barbecue sauce. Heat the olive oil in a saucepan over medium heat.
• Add the onions and cook until soft and translucent, 5 to 8 minutes. Stir in the cumin and cook for an additional 30 seconds.
• Add the ketchup, hot chili sauce, brown sugar, and apple cider vinegar. Stir to combine, season with salt then cook for 2 minutes. Set aside in preparation for the ribs to finish roasting.
• Remove the ribs from the oven, discard the aluminum foil and generously brush both sides with barbecue sauce.
• Optional: Move an oven rack near the top of the oven. Turn broiler to high and broil the ribs for 3-4 minutes, just until the barbecue sauce begins to caramelize. (Keep a close eye on the ribs while they broil so the sauce does not burn.)
• Store baked ribs, in an airtight container, in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Freeze, wrapped in foil or freezer paper and in an airtight container, for up to 3 months. Thaw in the refrigerator, and then reheat.
• To reheat the ribs, wrap in foil or parchment paper and place into a 300°F oven until warmed through, about 30 minutes. If you have some leftover, slather some extra sauce that's been warmed over the ribs before serving.

BUFFALO RIBS | TRAEGER GRILLS

Steps:

• If your butcher has not already done so, remove the thin papery membrane from the bone-side of the ribs by working the tip of a butter knife or a screwdriver underneath the membrane over a middle bone. Use paper towels to get a firm grip, then tear the membrane off.
• Lay the ribs flat, meat-side down, in a 9 x 13 inch glass baking dish.
• For the Brine: In a large mixing bowl, combine 1 quart water, celery, lemon (squeeze the lemon quarters but toss the rind into the brine as well), onion, kosher salt, brown sugar, celery salt, Worcestershire sauce, peppercorns and garlic powder.
• Whisk until the salt and sugar crystals dissolve. Pour over the ribs. Cover and refrigerate for 6 to 8 hours, or up to overnight, turning once or twice.
• Drain the ribs, knocking any solids off the meat, and dry thoroughly with paper towels. Discard the brine. Slather both sides of each rack of ribs with mustard.
• When ready to cook, set Traeger temperature to 180°F and preheat, lid closed for 15 minutes.
• Put the ribs directly on the grill grate and smoke the ribs, meat-side up, for 2 hours.
• Season generously on both sides with Traeger Pork & Poultry Rub. Tear off a large sheet of heavy-duty foil, approximately 24 x 18 inches, and lay the racks of ribs on top of each other, meat-side up. Pull up the sides of the foil and add the beer. Fold the edges of the foil so the meat is tightly enclosed.
• Increase Traeger temperature to 300°F. Put the foiled ribs directly on the grill grate and continue to cook for 1-1/2 to 2 hours.
• Carefully open the package, (hot steam will escape), and check the ribs. They should be quite tender when you insert a skewer or knife between the middle bones. If not, refold the foil and continue to cook until they are tender.
• In the meantime, make the sauce. Melt the butter in a small saucepan (you can do this on the grill). Whisk in the hot sauce.
• Remove the ribs from the foil and let rest for 3 to 5 minutes.
• Cut into individual ribs and arrange on a large platter or in a shallow bowl. Pour the sauce over the ribs and using tongs, turn the ribs to coat.
• Serve right away with the blue cheese dressing on the side. Enjoy!

BUFFALO RIBS

Steps:

• Make the rub: To a small bowl, add the salt, lemon pepper, garlic powder, mustard, and cayenne; mix with your fingers, breaking up any lumps.
• The ribs: place a rack of ribs, meat side down, on a baking sheet; remove the thin, papery membrane from the back of the rack by inserting a slender implement, such as a butter knife or the tip of a meat thermometer, under it.
• The best place to start is on one of the middle bones.
• Using a dishcloth, paper towel, or pliers to gain a secure grip, peel off the membrane; repeat with the other rack.
• Sprinkle the rub over both sides of the ribs, rubbing in onto the meat.
• Squeeze the lemon juice over the ribs on both sides, patting it onto the meat with a fork.
• Drizzle a tablespoon or two of hot sauce over the ribs, patting it onto the meat with a fork.
• Cover the ribs with plastic wrap; refrigerate them while you make the sauces and set up the grill.
• Butter sauce: melt the butter in a small saucepan over med-high heat.
• Stir in ½ cup hot sauce; bring to a boil.
• Remove from the heat; set aside.
• Gorgonzola Cheese Dip: put the cheese in a mixing bowl (nonreactive); mash to a paste with a fork.
• Gradually stir in the mayonnaise, sour cream, lemon juice, and scallion whites.
• Season with salt and pepper to taste (cheese is quite salty, so be careful).
• Transfer dip to serving bowl; sprinkle with scallion greens; chill until ready to serve.
• Set up grill for indirect grilling and preheat to medium; place a large drip pan in the center of grill under grill grate.
• For gas grill, place the wood chips in the smoker box or in a smoker pouch and run the grill on high until you see smoke, then decrease heat to medium.
• When ready to cook, brush and oil the grill grate; place the ribs bone side down in the center of the grate over the drip pan and away from the heat.
• Cover the grill and cook the ribs until well browned, cooked through, and tender enough to pull apart with your fingers, 1 ¼ to 1 ½ hours in all.
• When the ribs are done, the meat will have shrunk back from the ends of the bones by about ¼ inch.
• Lightly brush the ribs with some of the butter sauce (rewarm it if needed) two or three times after they have cooked for 45 minutes (a basting brush works better than a mop for this sauce).
• Transfer the racks of ribs to a cutting board; let the ribs rest for a few minutes, then cut the racks into individual ribs and place in a large bowl or arrange on a platter.
• Reheat the remaining butter sauce until it is boiling; pour sauce over the ribs and toss to mix.
• Serve the ribs with Gorgonzola Cheese Dip and the celery.
• **To cook on a smoker, set up and light smoker according to manufacturer's directions; preheat it to low; place ribs in the smoker bone side down and smoke until cooked through 4-5 hours, lightly basting the ribs with butter sauce during the last 30 minutes; you will need to replenish the wood after the first and second hour of smoking, and to replenish the coals every hour.
