Phil’s BBQ Baby Back Ribs

Here is the recipe you've all been waiting for. Phil Haslam's BBQ Baby Back Ribs that he demonstrated at Super Saturday. They were delicious.

The Rub

¼ cup freshly ground black pepper ¼ cup paprika

1 ¼ cups white sugar 1 ¼ cups brown sugar ½ cup salt (Kosher Preferred)

-Mix dry ingredients together thoroughly

-Spread/Rub dry mixture over and into a rack of Baby Back Ribs

-Wrap ribs in heavy duty foil (recommend double wrapping)

-This step should be done anywhere from 10 minutes to 24 hours prior to cooking ribs

The Oven (The purpose of this step is to cook the ribs)

-Put foil-wrapped ribs onto a cookie sheet and into a 350 degree preheated oven

-Cook for 1 hour

-Remove ribs and drain excess liquids from foil-wrapped ribs

-Remove ribs from foil

The BBQ (The purpose of this step is to “set” the sauce)

-Put cooked ribs on BBQ, liberally slopping on your favorite sauce

-Turn ribs, reapplying your favorite sauce every turn

-Continue until desired amount of sauce “set” on ribs is achieved

-This step takes only about 10 minutes

-BBQ need not be too hot, remembering this step is not to cook ribs but to “set” the sauce.

-Serve ribs, eat ribs, lick fingers!
