what's good everybody and welcome back
to my channel smoking and grilling with
me a b now i got it look channel called
smoking and grilling with a b we talking
about ribs right but look as you read in
the title listen we're going to do a
verses we're going to do crock pot
version ribs and we're going to do them
in the oven hey they super simple and
for those of you guys out there in these
cold climates and you really can't get
out there to your grill or your smoker
i'm gonna say you can get about 95
percent of that flavor you know in your
oven hey or using this crock pot super
simple look i want you guys to come on
in and take a look we'll start over here
looking at these ingredients right
listen i'm gonna show you this this
right here is my own rub this is in in
development right now i should have this
out you know maybe a couple more months
or whatever but listen use your favorite
rub you know what uh even at my
restaurant i use salt and pepper and i
got like a little little twist that i
put on there but whatever rub you guys
want to put on there you know you can
use this right here i'm going to put
mine on one set and another set i'm
going to be using killer hogs if you
guys haven't used this rub right here
this one right here is banging folks you
hear that little laugh i did this is it
right here now they're gonna be barbecue
style right so of course i'm gonna be
using my barbecue sauce if you guys
don't have these that's okay use your
favorite barbecue sauce and if you like
to get any of my products look below
this video right here and there will be
a link along with some pictures so you
can purchase that now let's go ahead and
address this elephant in the uh in the
room now we cooking in the inside right
we're gonna say liquid smoke listen just
a couple of drops of this go a long ways
listen you got to cheat it a little bit
to put that flavor in here if you want
to have the smokiness right if you don't
you can omit this that's fine but i
would suggest
still have some of this because we're
going to add just a couple of little
things to it you know just to put in on
this little binder and to put a little
smokiness on these ribs now let's look
at these ribs obviously i got two sets
of ribs right this one right here if you
can see the difference look at how these
made look how they are a little bit they
well not a little bit they're a lot more
meteor this way and then look at these
right here
these right here are baby bags i know
some of y'all like raising your hands
saying
i know the answer call me teach baby
backs saint louis now let's talk about
the trim you see this right here i like
to get rid of these i think i'm gonna go
ahead and put the saint louis style ribs
we're gonna put those in the crock pot
right so i'm going to take my knife
and we just cut this off i don't want to
get into the part of her barbecue and
all of that because i would cut these
off because this thin meat i like to
square them off this way and keep it as
thick as possible going down i just
wanted to make that a little bit of trim
a lot of this the fat right now is going
to end up in the crock pot right yeah
i'm not going to clean them up there's
not no competition just just loose
you know when it comes to room
temperature it gets a little
slippery all that i just get rid of that
just grab it work it around with your
fingers like you see me right here and
then just take it and just go ahead and
cut it okay so look now we set up to go
ahead and do our seasonings right so i
got the baby backs because these are the
ones that are going to go in the oven
right so look i'm going to take a just a
little bit of this liquid smoke right
see how small that opening is right
there
what you want to do is you just want to
look
not you just need a couple
that's it
now i'm going to take my hand
and just rub this on here
you know what i mean just to give it
that that flavor don't need to really
put nothing on the bottom when i go
ahead and coat
you know when i apply look i want you to
watch it look i put it on there
nice and thick right and i just work my
way down
so look for the best results
when you put this on here you want to
just stay on here for at least 15-20
minutes you know so the seasoning will
have some time to go ahead you know your
rub or go ahead have some time to get
you know soaking to the meat and then
remember this is the one i'm gonna put
in the oven you see that right there
the ash coverage take these and i'm
gonna place these on my baking sheet
right here on my rack
and if you ever notice when i deal with
ribs yeah sometimes when you cook them
you'll see they'll have a little bow in
them or hearts if you the way you put
them down is the way they're gonna stay
and i like to like push them like this a
little bit so they stay like that now
these are the ones that's gonna go in
the oven i'm gonna preheat my oven to
275 degrees and then we're gonna set
these in there for a couple hours
my oven is up to temp right we're doing
these just like we do them outside i'm
doing them at 275 we're gonna let you
stay in the oven for about two hours
right so we have to temp
put these in
i want to hurry so i can keep all my
heat inside
now i'm gonna set a timer alexa set a
timer for two two hours
okay so now we're down to the you know
these ribs right so look now i'm gonna
take some w sauce that's all it is you
guys that keep asking me what w sauce
mean there it is right there you
pronounce it look this is just a binder
right just put a little bit on here
don't really need that much remember if
you guys been watching any of my other
videos you know i like to use mustard
you know stuff like that now look we're
going to be using this killer hogs right
here
now i want you to look at the coverage
again this be important when you're
doing ribs especially you know what not
especially always whenever you're doing
it you want to season properly so watch
right here and then follow me down folks
look
that right there that's what you're
looking for
even to dry this on top of there don't
worry about it because as we let this
sit up for about 15 minutes it all
becomes wet and damp and it starts you
know soaking down into the meat
i'm gonna go ahead and address this
we'll talk about that membrane on the
bottom it's up to you guys if you guys
want to take it off i heard all kind of
you know stories about it i got a
restaurant i scored and we put it in
like that listen when it cooked properly
it goes away it shouldn't be chewy at
all you know but we're going to go ahead
and do these just like that just for the
sake of argument you guys do yours the
way you want to do them so i'ma let you
sit out for about 15 minutes i'm gonna
go ahead and fire up my crock pot come
on in right now let's go ahead and do
that part right now we'll just set it
for two and a half hours i'm gonna
adjust the time but what i'm doing is
just preheating this and getting it nice
and hot here's where the magic happens
when it comes to the crock pot right
so we got some heat in there look this
is going to be key pay attention this
right here we want to take it and we
want to put the meat lined up against
the ceramic so i'll take it like this
and we'll just stand it up just like
that
that's what you want now all of the fat
and everything that you render off of
these ribs that goes down there in the
bottom we're gonna take that out after
two and a half hours we're gonna get rid
of all of that fat then we're gonna go
ahead and douse it with some barbecue
sauce and again i'm using mine folks and
if you guys don't have it and you want
to get some don't forget to look down in
the description box below and underneath
this video you'll see a picture of it so
now i'm gonna go ahead and put this on
i'm gonna reset my timer for two and a
half hours and then i'll see you then
[Music]
i'm gonna go ahead and cut this butter
i don't want to cut my foil so i'll just
get it down
and just tear it that's good enough now
you want to get yourself
some brown sugar so check this out let
me move this over here this is gonna be
the center this is where we're gonna put
our ribs and we're gonna put our ribs
meat side down look what we're doing is
adding a little flavor but we're making
it so that we can get them nice and
tender that's what the foil does hey the
same way you guys watch me make it you
know when i make it on when i use my
grill outside that's how we do it here
don't need a whole lot that's probably
more than enough right so we'll take it
like this
and just cut these down like that
you guys see where i'm going with it
i know some of y'all saying well i don't
do all that you know cook it in the oven
that's the reason why they ain't abs
you know real so we just stick them in
like this
check it out it's a method to my madness
folks
i want you guys to let me know down in
the comment section below i know a lot
of people do it like this but i want you
to follow this especially for those who
haven't done it and tell me what you
think right afterwards right so
these have cooled enough take them like
this remember i said meat side down this
is baby backs a lot of meat on the top
right we take them like this
and look at that there folks
got these here sitting on top of the
butter and the brown sugar right i'm
gonna take this right here because we
don't want to lose now and i'm just
gonna fold this up like this right
just so that we don't have none of this
soda that runs out of here i'm using
root beer you guys see i got coke you
could use dr pepper man people use
whatever they want to hey when i don't
have no soda what i use is apple juice
all of that works fine look we just want
to get it hot so it can steam tenderize
the meat and make it super soft right so
that's it especially you from california
everybody in california want them to be
fall off the bone ribs so that's what
we're going to make right now fall off
the bone ribs now you guys want to be
careful not to poke no holes in here
because then you're going to make a mess
right so
take it fold it a couple of times and
bring this over the top
all right let me go back out here
look i don't put the cart in front of
the horse trying to just hurry up why
because i want to hurry up and eat some
of these that's up to you guys you want
to put some more in there you can but
for me this is good like that we'll put
them here now one of the key things that
i did was i raised my oven up to 350
degrees we're gonna go back in for one
more hour let me open that up and then
we'll go hey and speaking of that
these are ready to do the next step also
like i said these are ready also right
so one thing about a crock pot whenever
you open this crock pot up from my
experience
you add 30 minutes more into your cook
so listen when you cook it under here it
might need to look like it needs to be
stirred or something like that if you
want to take it and stir it inside add
some more time reason i'm telling you
that is listen but i already ran through
my timer and we good here right so i'm
just going to open this up we let all
the heat out the way it's designed is to
keep that heat that's all part of the
process of cooking it right so if you
guys look down there you can see all of
the yuckiness that's all of the fat that
has rendered down i got a bowl right
here the reason i got this bowl is i'm
gonna pour this the fat into this and
we're gonna discard that and then what
we're gonna do is we're gonna pour some
barbecue sauce over the top and put the
top back on and then we're gonna go one
more hour so let me go ahead and get rid
of this
okay so if you look down in here you can
see that i drained all of the fat right
we're gonna get a little bit more fat so
now i'm using my favorite barbecue sauce
look i'm using my savory this is a
little bit of on that sweet side this
right here is the one now i just take
this and i just pour just like this
this is real easy and simple can't get
this wrong folks
then remember you guys use your favorite
you know barbecue sauce but i promise
you if you give this a try one time this
will quickly become your favorite right
so we just put it like that i'm gonna go
ahead and put the top on now i'm gonna
reset my timer i'm gonna put it on high
right i'm gonna put it on there for one
hour look we're gonna cook some of that
inside of that meat we're gonna let that
trickle down boil down on the bottom and
then we're gonna take it out you know
what i'm not gonna spoil it stay with me
one hour on high okay so
just open this up took these out the
oven as you can see you can look at the
color i'm gonna tilt them like this
look at that
that right there is what you want and if
you look right here you can just see
they nice and soft they ready to be
eaten right but we're not done yet so
let me discard this let me get this out
okay so look you can see the baby backs
these is nice we're not done with them
yet now look i had coordinated so
everything will finish at the right time
at the same time right so now you guys
get a chance to look
look at these because i'm gonna put both
of these inside of the uh oven we're
gonna set it on broil
and we're gonna go from there but we'll
take these like this
let them drip bring this over here like
this
spread those out
smells incredible that's one of the
things if you guys use your favorite uh
barbecue sauce listen it'll come out
just the way you want it you can imagine
look at that right there i got some of
my barbecue sauce what i'm gonna do is
i'm just gonna put a little bit here and
we're just gonna brush this on here just
like this
so we'll just keep
doing this just like you see
now i want you guys to tell me what you
think about that there now i just heard
my oven it's up to 500 degrees i'm gonna
put these in the inside right this is
the key i'm gonna tell you five minutes
but it depends on your elevation
i don't know how that works but
everybody 500 and everybody's oven is
going to be different me i put my eyes
on them and i'll watch them when they
look the best i take them out and that
right there is going to be your
presentation
i want you guys to take a look at these
right here look at the way that that
barbecue set on the top that right there
is what you want
st louis baby back one done in the oven
the other done in the crock pot look at
those right there i can't wait to sink
my teeth into these hey super simple big
on flavor and i gotta go back to that
part about being simple i'm gonna go
ahead and cut these down now remember
these are the saint louis ribs right so
we'll just cut them
look at that right there i'm only gonna
cut a couple oh man so nice hey look
this just run through it like butter but
i'm gonna show you guys right now look
at that right here
oh yeah look you can just see nice and
soft but i'm gonna save it because look
i'm gonna just stick them over here and
now let's cut these baby bags
look they so
soft you know what i mean you got to be
careful they just come right apart you
see this right here i always talk about
having chef's choice right hey cheers
y'all
i want you guys to come on in you can
see look i got them cut st louis on this
side we got baby backs on that side you
can see the difference in the meat look
you can see how the meat is there the
thickness of it and then when you look
at the baby back look it's a whole lot
more meat right now you want to have a
sharp knife i should have sharpened my
knife because you can see how like it
did kind of like tour but listen this is
like super moist right this is what you
want when you can take your rib and you
can just do like this you know what i
mean you could just take it and just
pull it off like that that's what you
want right so i'll just take this
to have ribs in the oven or the crock
pot this ain't bad folks for you guys
that didn't know now you know
you guys got to try it you know what i
mean you see that
look how clean that bone is
i don't know what to say you know what i
mean for me because i grill all the time
i'm going to notice a difference but i'm
gonna be honest with you listen for
those of you guys it is cold you can't
really get outside to use your you know
your your gadgets outside this right
here is a viable option hey either way
crock pot i like the crock-pot version
because listen if you're going to work
or you got the time you can set them all
low in the morning let them cook all day
longer they cook the more fall off the
bone they are you know what i mean you
can go baby back or you can go you know
st louis style doesn't make a difference
hey super easy big on flavor i could
taste everything even taste a little bit
of the smoke on the one that i hit it
with the smoke you know what i mean uh
just it's how you season it but i'm
gonna tell you what's really key you
gotta let it sit out for about 15-20
minutes and let your rub penetrate that
meat hey with that being said listen try
