Description

Ingredients

• 1 1/2 teaspoons each of garlic powder, onion powder and black pepper
• Kosher salt
• 4 meaty racks of baby back ribs (about 2 1/2 pounds each), membranes removed
• 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 2 sage sprigs
• 8 thyme sprigs
• 1 medium onion, minced
• 2 large garlic cloves, minced
• 1/2 cup red wine vinegar
• 2 cups Perfect Blueberry Syrup
• 1 teaspoon hot sauce

Directions

• Preheat the oven to 375° and position shelves in the upper and lower thirds. In a bowl, combine the garlic powder, onion powder, pepper and 1 1/2 tablespoons of salt. Set the ribs on 2 rimmed baking sheets and rub with the spices. Cover with foil and roast for 1 hour and 30 minutes, until tender, switching the pans halfway through. Pour off the liquid in the pans. Meanwhile, in a large saucepan, melt the butter. Tie the sage and thyme sprigs together with kitchen string. Add the onion, garlic and herb bundle to the saucepan and cook over moderate heat until the onion is softened, 8 minutes. Add the vinegar and bring to a boil. Add the Perfect Blueberry Syrup and hot sauce and simmer over moderately low heat until reduced to 1 1/2 cups, 10 minutes. Discard the herb bundle. Preheat the broiler. Working with one sheet of ribs at a time, brush the underside of each rack with some glaze and broil until browned. Flip the ribs and repeat on the other side. Transfer the baking sheet to the bottom shelf of the oven. Repeat with the remaining ribs. Transfer the ribs to a work surface and slice between the bones. Mound the ribs on a platter. Pass the remaining glaze at the table.
