- Ready In:
- 3hrs 20mins
- Ingredients:
- 4
- Serves:
-
2-4
ingredients
- 2 -4 lbs pork ribs
- 1 1⁄2 cups apple juice or 1 1/2 cups cider
- 1 large Spanish onion
- 2 tablespoons rib seasoning, your favorite (use more or less, if preferred)
directions
- Preheat your oven to 225°F.
- Take a broiler pan w/ a slotted top or a 9X13 cake pan & a wire rack.
- *Pour 1 to 1-1/2 cup Apple Juice/Cider on the bottom of the pan, along with a coarsely cut Spanish Onion. (You want the liquid about 1/4 inches deep).
- MAKE SURE YOUR HANDS ARE CLEAN!
- Season your ribs the way you prefer, using 1 T. per side & rub into meat. Place on rack, meaty side up.
- Cover with a double layer of foil.
- Bake for 3 hours.
- If you have a smoker type grill, reduce oven cooking time by 1 hour & place in preheated smoker/grill for 1 hour. I prefer Applewood, but use what you like.
- Remove from oven/smoker & baste with your favorite BBQ Sauce & broil or grill, until glazed. but watch closely so as NOT to burn. I prefer my ribs "naked" with the sauce on the side, but to each his own.
- *NOTE: You can also use just water & add 1/4 cup Liquid Smoke, if you have no way of smoking them. You can also use Jack Daniel's No. 7 Black Label, but that's a little pricey. Use your imagination, but for heaven sakes, DO NOT BOIL THEM!
