- 1 tbsp garlic powder
- 1 tbsp onion powder
- 1 tbsp mustard powder
- 1 tbsp allspice
- 1 tbsp cumin powder
- 1 tbsp ground coriander
- 1 tbsp oregano
- 2 tbsp brown sugar
- 1 tbsp freshly ground black pepper
- 2 tbsp kosher salt, or to taste
- 2 baby back ribs (about 4 pounds)
Rhubarb BBQ Sauce- 3 tbsp butter
- 1 small onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
- 1 fresh chili pepper, finely chopped, such as jalapeno or serrano
- 2 cups chopped fresh rhubarb
- 1 tsp allspice
- 2 tsp chili powder or ground chipotle powder
- 1/4 cup whiskey
- 1 tbsp whole-grain mustard
- 1 tsp tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- 1/2 cup maple syrup
- 1/4 cup to 1/2 cup apple cider vinegar
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1 cup ketchup
PRÉPARATIONDry Rub- Combine the chipotle powder, garlic powder, onion powder, dry mustard, allspice, cumin, coriander, oregano, brown sugar, salt, and pepper.
- Spread the dry rub to taste on both sides of the ribs and rub well. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours or up to 24 hours.
- Preheat oven to 300°F.
- Line a baking sheet with a double layer of aluminum foil with enough overhang to enclose the ribs.
- Arrange the ribs, bone-side down, on the foil-lined baking sheet. Wrap the foil around the ribs and seal. Bake until the ribs are tender when pierced with a knife, about 2 1/2 to 3 hours. They should be very tender but not falling apart.
- Carefully unwrap the ribs, pour off any juices, and set aside. At this point, you can refrigerate the ribs and liquid before grilling for 1 to 2 days. (The reserved juices can be added to the rhubarb BBQ sauce.)
- When ready to grill, preheat the grill to medium heat.
- Add the ribs to the grill. Brush with the rhubarb BBQ sauce, turning occasionally, until the sauce caramelizes and the ribs are cooked through, about 10 minutes.
- Transfer to a cutting board and cut between the ribs to separate them. Serve with the rhubarb BBQ sauce.
Rhubarb BBQ Sauce- Over medium heat, melt the butter in a heavy-bottomed saucepan.
- Add the onion, garlic, and chili pepper and cook until softened, about 3 to 5 minutes. Add the rhubarb, allspice, and chili powder. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the rhubarb begins to soften, about 5 minutes.
- Add the whiskey, dry mustard, Worcestershire sauce, maple syrup, cider vinegar, brown sugar, and ketchup. Bring to a boil and reduce heat to low. Cook the sauce, stirring frequently, until reduced and thickened, about 20 to 30 minutes.
- Taste and adjust seasoning. Add more vinegar or maple syrup, depending on how sweet you like it.
- Add about 1/2 cup to 1 cup of reserved rib juice, if desired. Puree the sauce with an immersion blender until smooth.
