🛒Ingredients
- 2 racks of beef back ribs
- ¼ cup Melinda’s Japanese BBQ Sauce (as binder)
- 3 tbsp Blazing Star Beef Rub
- 2 tbsp unsalted butter
- ¼ cup Melinda’s Japanese BBQ Sauce (for braise)
- 2 tbsp Melinda’s Hot Honey
-
3 tbsp Blazing Star Asian Bang Sauce
🔥Instructions
-
Prep the Ribs
Slice the beef back ribs into individual pieces using a sharp butcher knife. Trim off excess fat if needed.
-
Season & Bind
Rub each rib with a thin layer of Melinda’s Japanese BBQ Sauce to help the seasoning stick. Coat generously with Blazing Star Beef Rub on all sides.
-
Smoke the Ribs
Preheat your smoker to 250°F. Place ribs directly on the grate and smoke for 2 hours, until the surface is beautifully set and darkened.
-
Braise for Tenderness
Transfer ribs into a deep foil pan. Add butter, more Japanese BBQ Sauce, Melinda’s Hot Honey, and Blazing Star Asian Bang Sauce. Cover tightly with foil.
-
Cook Until Tender
Return the pan to the smoker and cook for another 1.5 hours, or until ribs are tender and pull easily from the bone.
-
Finish & Serve
Remove from heat and rest 10 minutes. Toss ribs back in the pan juices for that extra sticky glaze. Serve hot and watch them disappear fast!
💡Pro Tips
- If you like extra sticky ribs, reduce the pan juices into a glaze and brush them on before serving.
- Substitute short ribs if you can’t find beef back ribs, same method, amazing results.
-
Add a squeeze of lime or sprinkle of sesame seeds for a fresh finishing touch.
