Prepare barbecue pork ribs using the "wet" method, where the meat is basted with sauce while grilling. To ensure a delicious and appealing dish, remove the connective tissue from the ribs and trim away any excess material, creating a perfect rectangle. This method is called "St. Louis-style ribs" in the US, named after the city where they were first cut and packaged this way.

By simmering the pork ribs for a long time over low heat, the meat becomes incredibly juicy and tender. A specially prepared barbecue sauce enhances the flavor and enhances its richness.

1 glass (st.) - 250 ml.
3/4 cup (st.) - 180 ml.

Cooking the dish according to the recipe:


  1. Barbecue sauceCombine all sauce ingredients in a saucepan or cast iron pot. Bring to a boil over high heat, stirring constantly to prevent burning. Reduce heat to low and simmer, uncovered, for about 30 minutes.
  2. RibsMeanwhile, trim the bottom ends of the ribs and remove any excess fat and membrane, leaving you with a smooth, rectangular slab of St. Louis-style ribs. Rinse, rub with the spice mixture, cover, and refrigerate for 4 to 12 hours.

  3. Grilling is recommended using indirect heat to prevent the meat from burning. For the first 3 hours, grill the ribs, fleshy side up, at 120°C (250°F). Then increase the heat to 150°C (300°F) and grill for another 3 hours. Baste the ribs with the sauce only during the last 30 minutes of cooking to prevent burning.
