Ninja Foodi Grill Ribs -- Get ready to embark on a flavor-packed journey with our Ninja Foodi Grill Ribs recipe!
Ingredients
2racks of St. Louis-style , or baby back ribs
1/4cupdry rub seasoning
1cupBBQ sauce, optional
Instructions
Preparation:
Remove the membrane from the back of the ribs for better flavor absorption.
Pat the ribs dry with paper towels.
Apply the dry rub seasoning generously to both sides of the ribs, ensuring they are evenly coated. You can do this several hours or even overnight before grilling for enhanced flavor.
Cooking:
Preheat your Ninja Foodi Grill to 325-350°F (163-177°C) using the Grill function.
If you want to add a smoky flavor, soak wood chips in water for about 30 minutes and place them in the smoking attachment of your grill.
Place the seasoned ribs directly on the grill grates or use the included grill pan for easier cleanup.
Grill the ribs for approximately 30-45 minutes per side or until the meat starts pulling away from the bones and reaches an internal temperature of at least 145°F (63°C).
If you prefer to baste the ribs with BBQ sauce, apply the sauce during the last 10-15 minutes of grilling, allowing it to caramelize and create a glossy glaze.
Resting:
Once done, remove the ribs from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute, ensuring a juicy and flavorful bite.
Serving:
Slice the ribs between the bones and serve them hot. You can accompany them with additional BBQ sauce or your favorite side dishes.
