Fall off the Bone Ribs

WHAT MALCOM USED IN THIS RECIPE:

Fall off the Bone Ribs Recipe
- 2 slabs of St. Louis Cut Spare Ribs
- 1/4 cup Killer Hogs AP Seasoning
- 1/4 cup Killer Hogs The BBQ Rub
- 2 sticks of butter
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1/4 cup Killer Hogs Vinegar Sauce
- 2 cups Killer Hogs The BBQ Sauce

Directions:
1. Prepare smoker for indirect cooking at 275F using hickory wood for smoke flavor.
2. Remove the membrane from each rack of ribs and trim away any excess fat. Season each slab with AP seasoning followed by a layer of The BBQ Rub - substitute your favorite seasonings if desired.
3. Place each rack on the pit and smoke until the rubs adhere to the meat and the color turns a dark mahogany about 2 to 2.5 hours.
4. Cut each stick of butter in half lengthwise and place on a sheet of aluminum foil big enough to wrap the ribs.Drizzle the butter with honey and Vinegar Sauce. Place each rack of ribs over the butter meat side down. Season the bone side with additional rub and wrap the foil tightly around the ribs.
5. Place the ribs back on the pit for an additional 2.5 hours or until the meat is "fall-off-the-bone" tender. The internal temperature should be around 212-215 degrees
6. Carefully remove each slab of ribs from the foil wrap and place on a foil lined baking sheet. Apply a little more The BBQ Rub and place back on the pit for 4-5 minutes. Drizzle The BBQ Sauce over the top and cook an additional 5-10 minutes to set the sauce.
7. Remove the ribs from the smoker and serve - you won't need a knife for these ribs because the ribs will be Falling-Off-The-Bone!

They say never trust a skinny chef. I'm hanging on every word this dude's saying as gospel.

“I don’t need no trophy” says it all, Malcolm. Regular folks want tender, fall off the bone ribs, not competition. Thanks for stepping outside the box for the rest of us. You are indeed the BBQ master.

[azzyx]

Been watching since the good ol days way back and couldn't be happier for your success big fella. The talent and recipes have always been second to none but it's awesome to see the production value and the professionalism you guys put in these days paying off. Keep up the good work no one does it better👍

Thanks for making the distinction between competition ribs and at-home ribs. I feel like most channels on here with "pros" often talk about how you don't want fall-off-the-bone ribs, but that's what most of us home cooks want. There's a time and a place for the competition style cook. Thanks for acknowledging the difference and showing us how to do em this way!

Malcolm is a treasure. So much information and knowledge he gives to us all for free. I support him by buying all his stuff I can on the regular. The AP seasoning goes on everything.

Great vid Malcom. Like the fact u showed competition ribs vs. “fall off the bone” ribs.

[leatherneckprepper]

I started smoking meats back in 2014. And it’s people like you that have taught me so much. I’ve never bought any of your rubs or sauces until last year. Now I don’t even make my own because yours are just so good. It’s my go to for almost everything even things I cook in my cast-iron. between you and Carrie at the pig leg, you guys have made me a very good pitmaster.

[bigfatjeffk]

Made these today - including the same Killer Hog rubs and sauces. OMG. Best ribs I’ve ever made. Period. Way better than any 3-2-1 or attempt at perfect-bite competition style I’ve tried in the past. The hit of the party. Thanks, bud!

My last batch of ribs I took those porky buttery sugary drippings from the foil and reduced them on the stove with about an extra cup or so of homemade bbq sauce, kept it going till it was nice and thick. Words can't even express how heavenly that reduced sauce was, it was richer than the richest prime rib or turkey gravy you've ever had in your life. Tasted a bit like old fashioned baked beans except 10x richer. Part of it might be I swapped my usual brown sugar for piloncillo, I had some from a mole recipe I was trying out. Piloncillo is just boiled and crystallized sugar cane juice, so it has all the flavorful molasses in it but none of the bitterness, imo it's perfect for BBQ and I'm never going back to brown sugar lol.

Damn now I need to make some ribs, I know what I'm doin this weekend!

[davidcoatsworth]

Malcolm. I found your YouTube channel a couple of years ago when looking for a baked bean recipe. I have been a How to BBQ Right disciple ever since. I made these ribs last night for my son who came over for an early Father's Day. These are unquestionably the finest, tastiest ribs I have smoked. Thank you for sharing your recipes. Please keep them coming. I am grateful!!!!

[MyBlackandRedCZ]

I loved how you made one rack “tug off the bone” to compare to the other racks. The way you demonstrated and explained the differences was very simple and easy to understand. Well done Malcom!

[chadreese]

My mom taught me how to make fall off the bone ribs and everyone loves them! I didn’t even know ribs were supposed to stay on the bone until I started watching videos on YouTube lol!

[rcchristian]

Malcolm sets the standard for his Vinigar sauce, BBQ sauce and making ribs.

Greatest anywhere!

[esanford]

Every time I watch one of his videos, it just makes my day go better.

[bigbejar]

Didn't even watch the video before giving it a thumbs up. Malcolm is the truth!!! ✊🏿👍🏿👌🏿

[wc.smith]

Personally, I think once a rib is cooked to the point of falling off the bone you’ve ruined it; I really love that slight tug. That being said, the vast majority of people I know want them to fall right off so it’s good to see it done this way too. Great as always, Malcom.

[conradkostelecky]
