Barbequed Baby Back Ribs


Just in is this new video update on this Memorial Day Weekend! The orginal post was the first home game for the Seattle Mariners, in keeping with the season we're hit the barbeque to bring you Baby Back Ribs!  To be honest, it took us awhile to get this whole BBQ Ribs thing down; most of our early efforts involved too much testosterone and not enough patience, lots of fun but just not exactly the result we wanted :) We know that there are as many ideas on how to do Baby Backs as there are weekend warrior chefs, but this is our humble version of how to do it right and its real simple and real good.  First of all buy the best leanest and small ribs you can find; we have a bias towards PCC for any type of pork but probably so do you!  By the way, we refined this method due to very recent amazing input from Barbara in the PCC Issaquah meat department; and Barbara if you are reading this, thank you so much for those "loin" baby backs, incredible! www.pccnaturalmarkets.com And Jeff thanks for the ribs you specially prepared for us this last Saturday morning; they were fantastic! Okay let's get started: 1st make the ribs happy, we use "rub with love" baby back pork rub by Tom Douglas, rub it in both sides and let the ribs stand to close to room temperature. Meanwhile fire up the barbeque, get it real hot 500-600 degrees.  2nd, place the ribs face down on the grill and get on it hard to produce a solid sear to preference with the lid closed, turn them over and repeat.  Then crank the heat all the way down (go to a single burner). 3rd, lay out a piece of tin foil for each rack and seal them up. You want the heat to be 250-300 degrees now as you replace the seal ribs on the grill.  Cook the ribs at this low temperature for 2-3 hours (as long as your patience and time frame will allow).  30 minutes before completion time lightly pour your favorite BBQ sauce on the top side, reseal and repeat 15 minutes before completion.  Now that's a home run! We like Annie's Naturals Organic BBQ Sweet & Spicy because, well its organic, and has no high fructose corn syrup, but also like Sweet Baby Ray's Hickory & Brown Sugar BBQ Sauce.  Its that easy.  Factoid: Did you know there are 2 alternate ways to spell barbeque/barbecue? From RJ Kirk with Cafe 1853. Enjoy!
