Country Style Ribs " Dry Rub"

I have been making these country style ribs for years now and anyone who has tried them just fall in love. Most people rave over the baby back or spare rib cuts but personally these take home the gold medal as far as I'm concerned . The country style rib is not really a rib its a cut from the front end of the baby backs near  the shoulder and are a loin cut of meat with small or no bones at all not containing no ribs at all. These are the easiest to cook and have the most amount of meat. Most of my friends  don't really know the difference and just think i have found a magical pig with the meatiest ribs in the world , the country style rib is also very cheap and you can find them in just about any grocery store. 

You will need 

-6 whole country style " pork" ribs             

-1/4 cup of brown sugar 

-1 tablespoon of chili powder

-1 tablespoon of paprika 

-1/2 teaspoon of allspice

-1/2 teaspoon cinnamon 

-1 tablespoon garlic salt or powder 

-1 tablespoon black pepper 

-1 teaspoon of salt

-pinch of crushed red peppers 

-Combined all rub ingredients in a medium mixing bowl blending them well

-Dust both sides of each rib with liberally with seasoning mixture and press it into the meat

-Let the ribs set covered at room temperature for one hour

-Preheat oven to 225 degrees 

- Line baking sheet with heavy duty foil 

- Measure out another layer of foil twice the length of the baking  sheet 

-Place ribs in the middle of the baking sheet making sure they don't touch

fold over remaining foil and wrap ribs securing the foil sealed shut " like a pocket"   (you can also  use a baking dish with foil on top )

-Bake ribs for 2 1/2 - 3 hours or till ribs fall apart at the slightest touch of a fork

Serve with you favorite side dishes and sauce if you like but i never use any for this rub recipe .

Enjoy !
