How to
- Slice fine 2 cloves of garlic and a red onion.
- Grind it fine in your mortar and pestle.
- Grate half a nutmeg above the puree with grater.
- Add 1 tbsp of finishing salt and half a tsp of pepper to the puree.
- Mix it up and perform a taste test. It should taste very powerful.
- Keep the membrane on the ribs as protection.
- Marinade the ribs with your seasoning on both sides.
- Fire up your BBQ. I'm using the Charcoal Professional by Napoleon so i'm filling all the baskets with a thin layer of light burning charcoal.
- Lower the charcoal beds to grill at a lower temperature.
- Cut every rack of ribs in 3 pieces.
- Place them with the ribs pointing up on top of the grill grates.
- Once you have the maillard browning effect on the meat side, flip them.
- Keep moving them around to cooler and hotter spots to let the ribs cook evenly.
- Move them to a cooler spot once they have a good looking crust and let them cook with a closed lit for around 15/20 minutes.
- Wrap them in aluminium foil and store them in an insulated bag or box.
Herb Butter
- Add 250 grams or 8.8 oz cup of butter to a bowl.
- Add chopped parsley, garlic and red onion to the butter.
- Season with 2 tsp salt and 1 tsp pepper.
- Add 1 tsp of butter to each cut of ribs and let it melt before serving.
