Grilled Root Beer Pork Ribs Recipes

BEST BARBECUED ROOT BEER RIBS

Steps:

• For Ribs:
• Rinse ribs if needed and pat dry. Remove sinew from back. Place meaty side-up onto a large piece of heavy duty foil that has been sprayed in the center the size of the ribs.
• In small bowl mix together the Dry Rub ingredients until very well mixed. Dump half of it onto the ribs and pat on evenly. Turn ribs over to bone side-up, and coat bone side with rub well, too. Bring up sides and ends, pour in half (1/4 cup) of the root beer into foil pouch lifting ribs up so it gets underneath. Drizzle rest (1/4 cup) over top of ribs, then roll down sides of foil to just touch ribs, then roll up ends to seal. Be careful not to tear foil! Place foil-wrapped rack of ribs onto foil-lined large baking sheet. Let marinate for several hours or overnight, or just bake now.
• Place into preheated 300º F oven and bake for 2½ hours. (Make sauce while ribs are baking).
• When done, remove from oven. Remove ribs carefully from foil onto another foil-lined baking sheet bone side-up. I do this with large grilling spatulas for ease. Turn oven up to 350º.
• While oven temp is rising, coat bone side with half of the sauce. When oven is done preheating, pop back in and bake for 3-5 minutes until just bubbling.
• Remove from oven, turn ribs over, coat meaty side with rest of sauce, pop back into oven and bake again until just bubbly, another few minutes. Watch so that they don't burn!
• Cut into pieces and let rest a few minutes before serving as sauce will be very hot.
• For Sauce:
• In medium saucepan, add all sauce ingredients except butter, stir well to mix. Heat over medium-low heat until simmering. Simmer for about 5 - 8 minutes, stirring, until thickened. Remove from heat and stir in butter until melted. Cover and set aside.

• Remove fatty membrane from underside of ribs and season with salt and pepper.
• Place ribs in crock pot (you may have to cut each rack in half so they will fit) and cover with sauce. Cook on low for 4-5 hours. Move ribs around every hour or so, so they all have a turn being submerged in the sauce.
