Barbecued Ribs

Since my weber WSMis on back order I did my ribs the way I do them most of the time, which is indirect grilling in my weber kettle. They are based on the First-Timer's Ribs recipe from Steven Raichlen's Raichlen on Ribs, Ribs, Outrageous Ribsbook.

Rub Ingredients:
2 tablespoons sea salt
2 tablespoons brown sugar
2 tablespoons sweet paprika
1 tablespoon freshly ground black pepper
2 teaspoons mustard powder
2 teaspoons garlic powder

Mob Ingredients:
1 cup apple cider
3 tablespoons butter
3 tablespoons dark soy sauce

Glaze:
Noskos' Sweet Hickory Smoke B-B-Q sauce (or any other smokey barbecue sauce)

You'll also need:
4 slabs of ribs
2 fist size chunks of hickory smoke wood

The night before remove the white papery membrane from the back of the ribs, this goes best with your fingers or a butter knife, once you have a little piece loose grab it with a piece of paper towel and tear it of. Wash the ribs under cold water and dry them with paper towel.
Mix the rub ingredients and rub this mixture into the ribs. Put the ribs in the fridge.

This is what they look like after a night in the fridge.

The next day prepare your barbecue for indirect grilling and preheat to 325-350 F. Take the ribs out of the fridge half an hour before they go on the barbecue so they warm up a bit. Put the chunks of hickory on the coals and put the ribs on (ribs side down or in a rib rack), close the lid and don't touch or peek for 45 minutes.

After 35 minutes I prepare my mob sauce, melt the butter in a pan, add the apple cider and the soy sauce and bring to a simmer.
When the 45 minutes have past open the lid of the barbecue and mob some of the sauce on your ribs. Do this again 15 minutes later and 30 minutes later.
At the 1 and a half hour mark put on the glaze and let it get sticky for 10 to 15 minutes.
Take the ribs of the barbecue, cover with aluminium foil and let them rest for 10 minutes.

Now your ribs are ready to cut and serve.


The glaze I use, I made myself because you can hardly find any bbq sauce here, I will tell you how to make it in another posting

Linzer Sablés

Made it back safely after a fabulous cruise! Our luggage decided to stay away a day longer but apart from that everything was great. This week's Tuesday With Dorie recipe was picked by me! The first guy who joined the group finally got his pick :-) I choose the Linzer Sablés, so far I've enjoyed the European style recipes more than the American, maybe because I'm European and my tastebuds are more used to those treats? Anyway, I love the way they look with the jam peeking out of the little hole. I made mine with raspberry jam which I passed through a sieve, after heating it up, to get rid of the seeds. They were very easy to make and the taste of the cookies comes close to " speculaas ", must be the cloves. I'm pleased with my choice, it's not my favorite recipe but I would make it again. Here is the recipe: When I was a kid, the main street in our neighborhood boasted a bakery every two blocks. We always had freshly made bread from the baker closest to o...

TWD: Brioche Raisin Snails

Image
This weeks recipe for Tuesdays with Dorie , the group has grown to over 80 bakers, was picked by Peabody of Culinairy Concoctions by Peabody , thanks!! Brioche is something I always wanted to try and this recipe had some nice additions, like flambeing and making pastry cream. The first day I made the dough and I can tell you without a stand mixer that is quite a task! I have a lot of respect for all my fellow bakers who did this one without a Kitchen Aid! So with a lot of elbow grease and some work done by my hand mixer the dough came together nicely. After that I tackled the raisins, well the flambeing wasn't the hard part, no that was which dark rum to use from our liquor cabinet, Captain Morgan Spiced Dark Rum, Bacardi Spice or Bacardi 8 after a long thought I decided on the Captain Morgan. The flambeing went smooth and the alcohol in the rum burned of in beautiful red flames. The pastry cream came together very easy too and I had to restrain myself from eating too much of it! ...

TWD: Pecan Honey Sticky Buns

Image
This weeks Tuesdays with Dorie recipe was picked by Madam Chow of Madam Chow's Kitchen . When I read the recipe and saw that it uses the same brioche dough as we made for the Brioche Raisin Snails I was thrilled and scared at the same time, the dough is fabulous, but if you don't have a Kitchen Aid but just a cheap hand mixer it's quite a challenge. I decided to make the dough this time by hand because I think my mixer wouldn't survive another round with the brioche dough. The dough came together by hand a lot easier than I expected, I had to use some elbow grease but I would do it again this way. You need only half of the brioche recipe, I used the other half for more Brioche Raisin Snails because my brother keeps asking me to bake some more. I made seven buns, the rest I froze for a later date. We all thought that these buns were nice but way too sweet for our taste. When I make the remaining ones I won't use the pecan honey glaze but drizzle over the glaze that...
