Big Bob's Tennessee-Style Barbecued Ribs
List of Ingredients
Slab of ribs
Cup of apple juice
Big Bob’s Barbecue Red Sauce
Big Bob’s all-purpose barbecue rub
A grill or pit is required for this recipe Recipe
Preparation for ribs:
1. Place slab of ribs bone side up on table. Slide a knife under the membrane and against the end bone to separate the two. With a dry paper towel or rag, grasp the edge of the thin membrane and pull. The entire membrane should separate from rib. Note: This will result in a more tender rib and will allow your barbecue flavors to better penetrate the meat.
2. Generously shake the barbecue rub (ingredients below) onto the front and backsides of the ribs. Gently pat to ensure that the rub will adhere to the meat.
Ingredients for barbecue rub:
1 cup dark brown sugar
1/2 cup garlic salt
1/3 cup onion salt
1/2 cup paprika
2 tablespoons chili powder
1 tablespoon cayenne pepper
1 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon black pepper
Directions for cooking :
1. Heat grill, or pit to 225 degrees. Note: A variety of fuel types can be used: gas, charcoal, wood chips including hickory, oak, cherry apple, etc. Place ribs meat side up into cooker. Cook for 3 hours on 225 degrees.
2. Spray ribs with apple juice. Note: This will provide moisture, keep the bark from drying and add a fruity background flavor.
3. Cook an additional 2 hours until ribs separate with a slight tug. Apply a generous coat of barbecue sauce (sauce directions below) to both sides of the ribs. Cook 15 minutes, remove, cut and serve.

2 cups ketchup
2/3 cups dark brown sugar
