Ingredients
- 1 cup of BBQ sauce of choice
- ¼ cup of Honey
- 1 tsp of Garlic powder
- 2 tsp of Worcestershire sauce
- ⅛ tsp of Cayenne pepper
- 1 slab of pork Ribs pureed pork rib meat, for authenticity
- Dill pickle slices
- 1 sliced Onion
- Steak rolls use whole wheat rolls
Instructions
- Make the barbecue sauce by combining BBQ sauce, honey, Worcestershire, onion powder, garlic powder, and cayenne pepper in a small bowl, mix well. Reserve some, or make more, for later.
- (For a more intense flavor, in a saucepan, bring the mixture to a boil over high heat before reducing the heat to medium-low. Simmer the sauce for 15 minutes, then cool.)
- Prepare ribs by trimming the fat, stripping the membrane, and cutting into smaller portions. No need to debone, as those will be pulled out after cooking.
- Place ribs into foil, cover both sides with the BBQ sauce, then tightly wrap and oven bake the ribs for 2 ½ – 3 hours at 250°.
- Once done, remove the bones…they should pull right out.
- (You can then take the optional step of placing the ribs into a roasting pan, cover with more of the BBQ sauce mixture, then place the pan into a 425° oven for about 5 minutes to caramelize.)
- Build the McRib sammies on the steak rolls (toasted for an added treat) with a couple of ribs, topped with pickles and onions.
- ENJOY!
