👩‍🍳 Instructions (The AI's Game Plan)

🎯 Follow along with our AI chef's step-by-step adventure. Results may vary wildly!

1

Preheat oven to 300°F (150°C).

⏱️ 10 min (ish) 🌡️ 300°F

AI Wisdom: Low and slow cooking will result in tender ribs.
2

Remove the membrane from the back of the ribs for better flavor penetration.

⏱️ 5 min (ish)

AI Wisdom: Use a paper towel to grip and pull the membrane off.
3

Mix paprika, brown sugar, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper in a bowl to create a dry rub.

⏱️ 3 min (ish)

AI Wisdom: Adjust seasoning to your preference.
4

Rub olive oil over the ribs, then season them generously with the dry rub mixture.

⏱️ 5 min (ish)

AI Wisdom: Ensure the ribs are evenly coated with the seasoning.
5

Wrap the ribs tightly in aluminum foil, place them on a baking sheet, and bake in the preheated oven for 2 hours.

⏱️ 120 min (ish) 🌡️ 300°F

AI Wisdom: Cooking low and slow will make the meat tender.
6

Preheat the grill to medium-high heat (around 375°F/190°C).

⏱️ 15 min (ish) 🌡️ 375°F

AI Wisdom: Allow the grill grates to get hot for perfect grill marks.
7

Remove the ribs from the foil, brush them with BBQ sauce, and grill for 5-7 minutes per side, basting with more sauce as needed.

⏱️ 14 min (ish) 🌡️ 375°F

AI Wisdom: Grill until the sauce caramelizes and forms a sticky glaze.
8

Let the ribs rest for a few minutes before cutting between the bones and serving with extra BBQ sauce on the side.

⏱️ 5 min (ish)

AI Wisdom: Resting allows the juices to redistribute for juicier meat.
