Finger-licking baby back ribs with a bold, likely spicy or smoky BBQ sauce. These ribs are designed to impress and satisfy barbecue lovers.
Ingredients
2 racks baby back pork ribs (about 1-1/2 lbs. per rack)
1 (12 ounce) jar mesquite-flavored marinade
3 bay leaves
1 whole medium onion, peeled 1 cup prepared barbecue sauce (mild or spicy)
1/2 cup brown sugar
Directions
In a large stockpot, place both racks of ribs; add enough water to cover ribs. Add marinade, bay leaves and onion. Bring mixture to a boil over high heat. (This will create foam on top.) Reduce to medium-low heat; simmer 45 minutes or until ribs are just tender. Remove ribs from cooking liquid; drain on rimmed baking sheet.
Heat grill to medium heat (about 350 degrees F.).
Meanwhile, in a small mixing bowl, stir together the barbecue sauce and brown sugar. Brush over both sides of ribs. Place ribs on grill, bone side down, close lid. Grill for 7 minutes, turn and grill 7 minutes more.
