peenie 1,915 Posted August 24, 2015 Never been a fan of ribs in the slow cooker - tastes more like roast, no bark... Ever cook them in the oven? No...I've only cooked them once in the slow cooker. They came out ok. I figured I need a better sauce to make them go from ok to tasty good. Do you have an oven recipe? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Do you have an oven recipe? I like pork ribs, but in Texas - beef is king... Sometimes I will cook them I the oven. Rather simple recipe - big flavor. * Baby back beef ribs (i make 2 racks) https://dreadnaught.files.wordpress.com/2009/01/beef-ribs-in-package.jpg * 14.5 oz. can beef broth * Cup apple juice * Kosher salt, fresh ground pepper * Chopped rosemary * Olive oil * 3/4 cup apple juice - 3/4 cup apple cider vinegar (in spritz bottle) In a roasting pan, pour beef broth and apple juice. Set roasting rack inside of pan....Rinse ribs, pat dry, peel back membrane off.... (keeping ribs whole, do not slice) Oil down ribs, coat well with 1/2 salt / 1/2 pepper rub - then finish with chopped rosemary.... That's it........ Roast in oven for 5-6 hours, 250 degrees. Ribs will be done when they start to pull away from the bone... Every hour spritz the ribs with you bottle mixture.... Save the au jus, serve on the side. When done will look something like this: http://s1056.photobucket.com/user/jrcruzer69/media/Foodie%20Hut/Beef%20short%20ribs%20-oven%20baked_zpssjpk2fb5.jpg.html?sort=3&o=0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vuduchile 1,945 Posted August 25, 2015 i'll fade the popular opinion and go trader joe's carolina gold BBQ... I'm a fan of the mustard/vinegar sauce... I probably have 4-5 bbq sauces in my fridge... SBR's is obv a staple... stubbs if im doing crock pot pulled pork... Just finished up some sweet heat sticky something sauce... not the best but pretty good. I like a good Carolina gold sauce for a change of pace. I guess Sweet Baby Ray's hickory is ok for the store bought stuff. Also, cooking ribs in a slow cooker so that the meat falls off the bone ruins them. For best results, get the St. Louis spare ribs and cook 'em like they do in Memphis. Dry rubbed, slow smoked and a touch of your favorite sauce. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Meglamaniac 535 Posted August 25, 2015 Agreed. I often sauce and would take you both down with ease in any BBQ category, to say its for those who can't BBQ is just stupid. Know your customer, after all that is who you are cooking for and if they want BBQ sauce then you sauce. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cruzer 1,995 Posted August 25, 2015 I often sauce and would take you both down with ease in any BBQ category I would welcome the challenge....

In the future i will buy an electric smoker, but i don't like low and slow on my gas grill, seems like an inefficient waste. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dry rubbed, slow smoked and a touch of your favorite sauce. I like the gold sauce certain times for certain things like pork. Not too big a fan of it on ribs. Ribs in the slow cooker are good maybe once in a blue moon. All other times they have to be cooked on the grill. Sauced, dry rubbed, or just salt and peppered are fine with me. I like ribs and will have them any way pretty much. My wife likes sauce so I'll have to use that whenever I cook them here when it's just us.

A couple of optionsIndirect have half the burners going the other off, place a tin with water ontop of the off and place your ribs over those burners. If you have the clearence on your grill you can elevate the ribs over direct heat by using soup cans and grill grates, 6 or more inches will allow you to somewhat cook ribs rendezvous style.

That's why you should have a wood burning grill. If you want to do low and slow with great flavor wood is the way to go Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DankNuggs 305 Posted August 25, 2015 I've never cooked ribs on a grill.. Does this method produce any kind of a bark? not really, just get some carmelization on them so it isn't pulled pork coming out of the slow cooker...
