A platter of tender, meaty pork ribs, glazed with smoky barbecue sauce, is the signature of an American culinary classic.

Ingredients

4-5 lbs. (1.8-2.25 kg) country-style pork loin ribs
4 tbsp (60 mL) Smoky Barbecue Rub
6 cups (1.4 L) water
2 cans (14.5 oz./428 mL each) beef broth
2 garlic cloves, pressed
1 ½ cups (375 mL) barbecue sauce

Directions

Place ribs in the 8-qt. (7.6-L) Stainless Steel Stock Pot. Add the seasoning, water, broth and garlic pressed with the Garlic Press. Cover; bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer 45 minutes to 1 hour, 15 minutes or until the pork is tender. Remove the ribs from the stockpot.
Meanwhile, prepare the grill for direct cooking over medium heat. Place the ribs on the grill and brush with barbecue sauce. Grill, uncovered, 10-12 minutes or until well glazed, brushing and turning frequently. Serve with additional warmed barbecue sauce, if desired.

Cook's Tips:

To make this recipe ahead, cook ribs up to 2 days before grilling. Wrap tightly and refrigerate until ready to grill.

Country-style ribs may come bone-in or boneless. Both types can be used in this recipe. They are cut from the pork loin and are meatier than spareribs or back ribs.

When basting grilled foods with barbecue sauce, baste the last 10-15 minutes of grilling to avoid burning.
