ingredients
- 3 racks pork baby back ribs
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon salt
- 1⁄2 tablespoon black pepper
- 3 cups hot water
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 cup barbecue sauce
directions
- Mix Brown sugar with spices and set aside. Pre-heat oven to 275 degrees. Use a 2 piece broiler pan, the lower half filled with very hot water, then layer racks of rib on the top. Ribs can be left whole in racks and layered, I have done 6 at a time, they still come out great. Rub the brown sugar mixture liberally over each rack. Then using heavy duty tin foil, cover the pan so that no heat escapes. I usually double wrap the ribs. Set in oven for 3 hours and can be up to 5 hours. Remove foil carefully and cut ribs into a manageable length to grill them. If you try to grill the rack without making it smaller, some of the ribs will fall apart and the meat will literally fall off the bones! Brush with your favorite barbecue sauce, I like homemade or Sweet Baby Ray's brand. Grill over a very hot gas or charcoal rill for 2 to 3 minutes per side. Serve with plenty of napkins. These ribs are amazing!

This recipe is amazing! It's super simple and very tasty! I've used this recipe many times so I've tweaked it just a little. I use slightly more garlic powder than it calls for... probably 1.5 to 2 tsp., I use all of the rub on a single rack of ribs, probably 3.5 lbs. of meat, because we like a lot of flavor and I double up on the foil to make sure no moisture escapes. Seriously, the best recipe. I always get rave reviews!

I love,love,love ribs this way! I've been doing them this way for years. I put my rub on them the day before, wrap in foil and refridgerate overnight. The next day I proceed as this recipe says, but am careful not to let water touch the rack holding the ribs. Also, add 1 teaspoon of liquid smoke to the water. Always come out full of flavor and fall off the bone delish !

I have always had a hard time with pork, but this recipe turned out perfect. I didn't have a 2 piece broiler pan, but I did have a large roaster. So I put on my thinking cap and placed 3 balls of aluminum foil underneath the ribs in order to prop them up and proceeded to pour in the 3 cups of water; covered it up and set the timer for 3 hours. When the timer went off, I had the most tender, fall off the bone ribs. I was always afraid of pork, because I could NEVER get it right, but this recipe is a no fail, tasty recipe. Just do it. It is delicious. Thank you so much for giving me faith again in pork and my own cooking abilities.
