Emeril's Spiced Ribs

YIELD  4 servings

INGREDIENTS

1/4 cup Chinese Five Spice
3 pounds  baby back ribs, divided into 3 slabs
1/2 cup  brown sugar

PREPARATION:

  1. Sprinkle ribs on both sides with Chinese Five Spice. In a baking dish, let ribs marinate for at least one hour and up to 24 hours.
  2. Preheat the oven to 275°F.
  3. Remove the ribs from the baking dish and sprinkle with brown sugar. Place three 14-inch squares of heavy duty aluminum foil on a work surface. Stack the ribs evenly, fold foil over the top of the ribs and crimp the edges. Tightly seal the packet. Place the rib packet on a baking sheet and bake in the oven for 2 hours or until very tender. Remove and set aside to cool briefly before cutting into individual ribs and serving.

    Editor's Note: Look for heritage pork or other antibiotic/hormone-free varieties.
