This is for BBQ short ribs: Rub: 3 tablespoons kosher salt 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper 1/2 teaspoon black pepper 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder 1/2 teaspoon onion powder 1/2 teaspoon paprika 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin Combine seasoning ingredients for rub in a Ziploc bag, mixing wellRemove what you need and store the remainderWash ribs and pat dryRub with seasoning mixturePlace a disposable drip pan under the grates of the barbecue and heat to highWipe grates with oil to prevent stickingWhen grates are hot, place ribs over drip pan, cover and reduce heat to lowBaste ribs while cooking with Honey Smoke Barbecue Sauce (or sauce of your choice)Baste once 20 minutes before ribs are done, and a second time 10 minutes laterAverage sized ribs are cooked rare in 25-30 minutes, medium rare in 35-40 minutes, and well done in 45-50 minutesThese times will vary according to the grill used and the size of the ribsSmall ribs may require less cooking time, while large ribs may need a little more time on the grillAdjust accordingly.
I do my pork ribs by first boiling them in water and beef broth and simmer for a few hours or until they are ready to fall off the boneWhichever comes firstTake them out and you can put em on the grill or in the oven,and only put the bbq sauce on the last half hourThey're really good and tenderNot a whole lot of effort eitherEnjoy.
I could give you my recipe, but it is all in tasteI recommend taking your favorite bbq sauce and doctor it up to what you likeI have used dark brown sugar, added vinegar to make a sweet sour sauce, added garlic powder, Worcester sauce, onion powder, chili powder, all to my taste, adding these to my favorite bbq sauce I like baby back pork ribs, covered in garlic powder, a little white vinegar in the bottom of the pan, covered with foil for about 45 minin a 225 degree oven, then basting every 30 minwith the sauce you made up, if the liquid get above the top of the ribs.drain off until about a 1/4'' remainsKeep the ribs covered during the entire cooking time.approx 4-5 hrs, uncover for the last 30 minbasting heavily with sauce to glaze, and the bones will almost fall outServe with garlic mashed potato's and a green been casserole and you have a dinner to die for Have fun
Don't switch her on a timothy based pellets, they are completely different than actual timothy hayYou could keep her on the basics foodIf you really need fiber buy timothy hay! It's really cheap and has tons of fiber, really all rabbits should have an unlimited supply to it, my rabbits do and their digestive system is fineI hope I helped (:
Most of the recipes that were provided in the responses look goodThe final results are a matter of preferenceYou said candied and that might be more/less sweet than someone else's likingIf you want to see a great book on cooking ribs, Steven Raichlen came out with a cookbook just for ribsYou can generally pick it up at the public library or go to your local bookseller like Barnes and Noble and thumb through it for something of your liking.
