I spent a little over a year at the ranch. I loved living in the boonies out in the mountains. The experiences gained were amazing. I relearned to horseback ride, learned to snowmobile, learned more about people and learned so much more about cooking. I also learned to like BBQ sauce again. The recipe I'd like to share came from the ranch. It is the most well liked recipe I make. However, the story I'd like to share isn't about the ranch. It begins several years before moving to Colorado, even several years before college.

At the ranch, I was introduced to bbq ribs - amazing bbq ribs. Ribs that you dream about. I have seen people eat an entire rack of these ribs. Never again will I say I don't like bbq sauce.
To make these amazing BBQ Ribs:
Baby Back Pork Ribs (or St. Louis style) 1 rack for every 2 people
Chopped garlic
Brown sugar
Pepper
Pineapple Juice
BBQ Sauce:
1 -18oz KC Masterpiece bbq sauce - original
3/4 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup molasses
1/4 cup worcestershire sauce
1 drop tabasco sauce
Preheat oven to 350. Place racks of ribs in a baking pan. Rub each rack (both sides) with brown sugar, garlic & pepper. Pour pineapple juice over the racks, cover & place in oven. Bake for about 3 hours. The meat will be tender and pull easily away from the bone. (When I lived in TX, it only took 2.5 hours to cook)
For the BBQ sauce, combine all ingredients in a sauce pan and heat until warm.
After ribs are done in the oven, preheat the grill. Cut in pieces with 2 rib bones in each piece. Dip rips into bbq sauce. Turn grill to low and place ribs on grill. You will just be caramelizing the bbq sauce. Cook until grill lines appear. Depending on the temp of the grill, it will take 5 to 10 minutes on each side.
Serve with lots of napkins.
I don't think I hated the bbq sauce as much as you but it definitely does not belong in ramen noodle.
