Rib tips are the parts of the rib that are cut away to make St. Louis ribs. Some butchers call this the pork brisket. This cut has a lot of cartilage, but a low, slow cook softens the cartilage and makes it tasty. I like to cut them into small pieces. These meaty bits are a little easier to manage than ribs, and their meaty, chewy texture makes a great appetizer or main dish. Serve with additional barbecue sauce, if desired.
Ingredients
- 1 ½ pounds pork rib tips
- 1 tablespoon seasoned salt, or to taste
- aluminum foil
- ¾ cup barbecue sauce, or to taste
Directions
Step 1
Remove silver skin from the underside of rib tips if there. Rub seasoned salt all over meat.
Step 2
Line a baking pan with aluminum foil; place seasoned meat into the pan. Cover tightly with another piece of foil and refrigerate for at least 4 hours to overnight.
Step 3
Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F (120 degrees C).
Step 4
Bake foil-wrapped ribs in the preheated oven for 2 1/2 hours.
Step 5
Remove the pan from the oven and increase oven temperature to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Step 6
Uncover and drain the pan, if necessary. Brush barbecue sauce over ribs.
Step 7
Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes.
Step 8
Flip ribs and brush with additional barbecue sauce; continue baking for another 15 minutes. Repeat this step two more times.
Step 9
Cut ribs into desired serving size, about 1 1/2 to 2 inches.
Step 10
Turn on the oven broiler. Set an oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source.
Step 11
Broil ribs until slightly charred, 2 to 3 minutes. Watch carefully to make sure they do not burn.
