Love a great rack of ribs, don't always have the time to cook them. Recently found a fix...
Came across a discounted package of pork ribs labeled as riblets. Had a simple recipe on the label. Curious, I took a chance!! Recipe was for a quick sweet rub mixed with liquid and smothered on the ribs. Cooked for a hour thirty in the oven. They were thin like flanken beef ribs, just enough meat to make about a dozen good for a meal... Lol... With a little doctoring and finishing on the grill. Ok for a quick weeknight meal. Couple weeks later Found a few more discounted packs, figured I'd stock up the freezer and have a few on hand. Well as I wrapped them to be frozen I noticed these were two or three times thicker. And much better to eat. Still able to get them cooked in about 2 hrs or so.
Give them a sweet rub. Cook on a sheet rack for an hour with a little smoke, get them into a deep pan cover with brown sugar couple tabs of butter and a few drops of your favorite BBQ sauce. Another hour covered with a couple flips to coat them voila Sweet and Sticky Riblets...
