Instructions
- Remove the membrane (peritoneum) from the bottom of the ribs by taking a small slice on the last bone.
- Grab ahold of the membrane using a paper towel and gently pull it until it is removed.
- Cover the ribs on all sides with softened rendered pork lard to act as a binder for seasoning.
- Generously season the ribs on all sides with sea salt and ground black pepper.
- Place the ribs bone side down into a large deep baking pan. I used a 400-hotel pan.
- Pour 2 cups of beef stock into the pan.
- Cover with foil and bake at 300° for 2 ½ hours or until the meat easily pulls away from the bones.
- Remove the ribs and let them rest on a cutting board or sheet tray for 10 to 15 minutes.
- Generously spray or brush on apple cider vinegar on all sides.
- Add the ribs bone side up to a hot grill (450° to 550°) for 2 to 3 minutes to mark the ribs. They should get some light grill marks on them.
- Flip the ribs over and then generously brush the top of the ribs with BBQ Sauce and grill for 2 to 3 minutes or mark them.
- Turn them over one last time to get the BBQ sauce cooked into the ribs for 1 to 2 minutes, and then brush the bottom part of the ribs with more sauce.
- Remove the ribs from the grill and serve.
Notes
- Make-Ahead: These ribs are meant to be eaten when they’re done cooking. However, you can keep them warm in a pan covered with foil in the oven at low temperatures (<200°) for up to 1 hour before serving.
- How to Store: Cover and keep the ribs in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. These will freeze covered for up to 3 months. Thaw them in the refrigerator for 1 day or until thawed.
- How to Reheat: Add the desired number of ribs to a pan and cover with foil. Bake at 350° for 8 to 10 minutes or until hot.
- You can use spare ribs or St. Louis-style ribs using the exact cook times and temperatures for this recipe. and procedures.
- Other binders you can use are Dijon mustard, yellow mustard, softened butter, or oil.
- If you don’t have a grill to mark the ribs, place them under the broiler on high heat for the same time as on the grill.
