Set the sous vide to 63°C. I use a large Styrofoam box here because I like to make my ribs in full length - they take up some space. I receive my ribs frozen, and with this preparation, I wanted to see if they could be made directly from frozen. The first challenge was to remove the membrane on the back of the ribs. I didn't know if it was possible while they were frozen, but it went surprisingly easily.

Once this is done, the ribs need a good coating of DryRub. This is usually easy to get to stick to the ribs, but the frozen ones don't take the seasoning mixture as easily. As it turned out, when the ribs were vacuum-sealed, this didn't matter much. Recipe for my DryRub: 6 tbsp brown sugar, 3 tbsp paprika, 3 tbsp salt, 3 tbsp ground pepper, 2 tbsp garlic powder, 2 tbsp onion powder. Mix everything together and distribute it on the ribs. Optionally, add a little extra to the bag before vacuum-sealing. Feel free to save a little extra for after the sous vide. Once you've added your DryRub, the ribs need to be vacuum-sealed. It's a good idea to double-bag them when working with ribs, as the sharp edges can risk puncturing the bag.

Put the vacuum-sealed ribs in at 63°C for 36 hours and sit back and relax :-) 36 hours later, your ribs are ready. They just need a final touch to be at their best. Unpack the ribs, give them a bit more DryRub, and brush them with barbecue sauce. I have an absolute favorite that I make myself. The recipe will be here on the site when it's ready.

A good layer of barbecue sauce on both sides and then directly into a blazing hot oven for about 10-15 minutes. The DryRub, which contains brown sugar, and the glazed barbecue sauce will now begin to caramelize and become incredibly delicious. Take the ribs out when they have bubbled up and possibly gotten a slight crust. Your ribs are now ready to be served and enjoyed - "Finger-licking good, wipe it off your face when you are done".

Can be served with coleslaw, cornbread, fries, or as an accompaniment to other dishes. I know mine are great for the Super Bowl along with my Roethlisburgers slider-edition. Enjoy! Feel free to ask questions below or in the comment section of the YouTube video above. Thanks :)
