Saturday's Barbecued Ribs

This is RDG's version of a recipe that we saw on PBS with Steven Raichlen.

Buy $13.00 worth of spare ribs, rib tips removed but included in the package. Truck said ribs home. Remove from package and rinse in cold water, using fork, fingers and whatever to remove all of that membrane from the back of the ribs.

Rub judiciously with whatever commercially available pepper based steak rub that you prefer.

Light grill and prep for indirect grilling. Add enough charcoal for 1 1/2 hours. Stand ribs up on grill above the drip pan on tin foil. Place cover on grill and wait 1 hour and 15 minutes for rib goodness!

We should have taken the picture before we ate most of the dinner!!!




Hint: After the 1 hour and 15 minutes, wrap in heavy duty tin foil for an additional 15 minutes.

Serve with fresh Missouri sweet corn and sliced home-grown tomatoes!
