Pork Baby Backs (p. 53)
Hands down, this is America’s favorite rib, here cooked to glorious perfection. From the deliciously simple First-Timer’s Ribs to the Maple-Glazed Ribs of Quebec to Chinatown Ribs, Buccaneer Baby Backs, Peanut Butter Ribs, and Porkosaurus Memphis in May Championship Ribs—these are ribs at their finest.
Beyond Baby Backs: Pork Spareribs, Country-Style Ribs, and Rib Tips (p. 143)
There’s much more to pork ribs than baby backs. Fire up the grill and test out Jamaican Jerk Spareribs, Milk and Honey Spareribs, BB’s Rib Tips, and Country-Style Ribs with Chilean Pepper Sauce.
Beef Ribs (p. 173)
Short ribs, long ribs, veal ribs, bison ribs—they’re all here. Feast on Lone Star Beef Ribs, Rabbi’s Ribs, Grandpa’s Barbecued Pastramied Short Ribs, Rotisserie Veal Ribs with Herbes de Provence, and Bison Ribs with Cabernet Sauvignon Barbecue Sauce. All delectable.
Lamb Ribs (p. 221)
Lamb ribs turn up often on the world’s barbecue trail. For a Mediterranean touch, grill Lamb Ribs with Garlic and Mint. And wait until you try them tandoori style with Indian spices, or with ginger, rum, and pineapple as they do in Australia. To really heat things up, serve the North African “Méchoui” of Lamb Ribs with a spicy Harissa, then turn to the Drinks chapter to cool things off.
Side Dishes (p. 241)
Some may wish to feast on ribs alone, but that would mean missing out on Grilled Corn with Barbecue Butter, Smoke-Roasted Sweet Potatoes, Molasses Mustard Baked Beans, and Fennel Slaw—and that would be too much to sacrifice.
Drinks and Desserts (p. 263)
Ribs and beer—what could be better? How about a Dark and Stormy or a Guadeloupean Rum Punch or a glass of White Sangria? Want something a little less high-test? Try Minted Lemonade or Half-and-Halfs. And for dessert, there are Molasses and Spice Grilled Bananas, a Grilled Peach Caramel Sundae, or Grilled Fruit-and-Pound-Cake Kebabs. Perfect!
