Seaman Family Barbecued Ribs
- Ready In:
- 1hr 10mins
- Ingredients:
- 8
- Serves:
-
4
ingredients
- 4 lbs pork baby back ribs (4 racks)
- quality barbecue sauce
-
For Rub
- 2 tablespoons salt
- 4 tablespoons sugar
- 2 tablespoons ground cumin
- 2 tablespoons freshly ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons chili powder
- 2 tablespoons paprika
directions
- Combine rub ingredients.
- Rub rib racks well with spice rub.
- Let them sit in the refrigerator for a few hours, but no less than one.
- Heat up barbecue on high.
- Brown the ribs over direct heat on each side (about five minutes.) Then remove from racks from the direct heat and cook for at least 45 minutes, flipping them as you do.
- In a basic grill, arrange the coals to one side and the ribs on the other.
- In a good gas grill, you can turn off one of the burners and arrange the ribs over the unlit burner.
- This will heat the ribs from all sides, cooking them evenly.
- Brush the ribs with some of the barbecue sauce, and cook until done.
- Cut them into individual ribs, and serve with extra sauce.
- Roadhouse Hot& Spicy Barbecue Sauce is a great, chunky sauce with some kick, and recommended if you can find it.

My husband only let me rub down one rack of ribs with the spices because he said he thought it "smelled funny." Boy did he eat his words later! We wished we had used the same technique on all of them! This was soo good! And the ribs were nice and carmelized with the rub. I basted with Jack Daniel's Grilling Sauce. Mmm! I will most definitely use this as my regular rib recipe! Thanks!

Absolutely the best rack of ribs I have ever prepared! I used a 4 lb. rack of pork spare ribs and left them in the refrigerator for 3 hours after the rub down :) Gas grilled over direct heat and moved over to the other side of grill with no burner turned on. (At this point I cut that rack down into about 6 smaller pieces.) Left them with the lid down for about an hour and they were perfectly done. Everyone in the family loved the subtle spicy rub and we needed no BBQ sauce...for the first time ever! Thanks much for posting this!!
