my idea of bbq ribs

Everyone that I have shared this with have been impressed. The meat falls off the bone, it's not very labor intensive, and you can alter the times to fit your entertaining schedule. How to ???   Let me give you the lowdown. You should share good things with others.


Babyback ribs
BBQ sauce
Some spicy seasoning (if you like) Add the seasoning, as a dry rub, about 30 minutes before starting to cook.

Start by pre-heating  the oven  to 450 degrees.
Line a big broiler or  roasting pan with aluminum foil
Add ribs in single layer
Bake for 17 minutes
Turn ribs over and bake an additional 17 minutes.
Cover the pan with heavy duty aluminum foil.
Reduce oven temp to somewhere between 275 and 300 degrees depending on how much of a hurry you're in. I like 300 fegrees for an hour.
Uncover the ribs, increase temp to 350 degrees.
Lather the ribs with BBQ sauce of your choice. Bake 10 minutes, turn the ribs, add more BBQ sauce  and bake a second 10 minutes. One more time, turn the ribs, add sauce and bake 10 minutes.
You'll be able to see how good they look and how much sauce you want on them.


Chef Jim H. made a batch just a few days ago. He thinks that Corky's Memphis BBQ sauce is really good and helps these ribs rival the best of Memphis. I'm not that particular.

I like this recipe because it's all done in the oven and times are variable to fit in with any accompaniments you may be cooking. You could finsh the ribs and sauce application on the grill but, personally, I don't find that necessary unless you just feel it adds effect.
