HOW TO COOK BABY BACK RIBS

What we are really going to do is to treat the ribs like a CEO. For the first step, prepare the dry rub mixture. Simply mix all the dry rub ingredients and that is good to go. There are ready-to-use dry rub in the market but its best to make one from scratch so you can make adjustments based on your preference. Next, prepare the ribs. Once you buy the ribs from the grocery, you will notice a white skin-like coating on the ribs. It is actually called the silver skin. It is the membrane that lines the abdominal cavity of the pig. You need to remove the membrane using your hands. This step is very important above everything else. If not, your baby back ribs will be tough and chewy like a plastic, and will have no taste at all.

When all the silver skin is removed, sprinkle the dry rub mixture, spread some love to it and massage the meat gently. The next thing to do is to let the meat marinate with the dry rub. Wrap the ribs in a foil wrapper and store in the refrigerator. While waiting, prepare the sauce. This will be brushed to the ribs later. Simply mix the sauce ingredients in a pot and let it boil and simmer. Set it aside to cool a bit. Bake the wrapped ribs in the oven and remember to flip them for a few times. After the first bake, check if the ribs are tender. Generously brush some sauce and then bake again. The next few steps will involve brushing with sauce and baking until the ribs are finished.

If an oven is not available, or you just simply want a smokey flavour, you can perform the same steps but on a barbecue grill. Do not forget to flip the ribs and brush with the sauce. Remove fallen bones if there are any. Transfer the baby back ribs in a serving plate and serve with hot steaming rice or with mashed potatoes! Yum!
