Instructions
- Dry: Pat dry the racks of ribs with paper towels.
- Season: In a bowl, whisk together all dry rub ingredients well. Pat and press dry rub onto both sides of rib racks. Tightly wrap each individual rack of ribs in foil. Place in a single layer on a large baking sheet and let sit in fridge overnight.
- Bake: Preheat oven to 300F. Bake foil-wrapped ribs on baking sheet for 2 1/2 hours.
- Sauce: During last half hour of cook time: combine sauce ingredients in a medium saucepan. Bring to a simmer and cook 5 minutes, stirring frequently. Use spatula to break apart some of the berries. The sauce will thicken nicely. Cover and keep warm.
- Broil: Let ribs cool enough to handle and remove foil. Discard juices. Brush ribs generously with BBQ sauce, reserving a bit of sauce for serving. Broil on high for 5 minutes or just until tops are nicely browned. Watch carefully so it doesn't burn. Slice ribs and serve warm.
Notes
- Dry rub can be mixed in advance and kept in an airtight container for a week.
