Ribs are the supreme discipline when grilling.

They have to be juicy and so tender that they fall off the bone.

How to grill the perfect ribs.

  • Ribs are a real challenge when grilling.

  • If you want to do it yourself, you must not forget an important preparatory step.

  • A spoon ensures that ribs are tender.

Ribs that are tender and juicy and that loosen themselves from the bone are the ultimate.

Unfortunately, if you try it at home, you often end up with exactly the opposite on your plate: tough and dry. 

You are likely making a

mistake while preparing

, but it's easy to fix.

Even before you season or pre-cook the ribs, there is a step that you need to take a spoon for.

That's why you need to work ribs with a spoon before grilling

If you buy the fresh version from the butcher instead of prepared ribs, you will

see

a

thin, barely visible membrane

on the bone side

.

This layer of tissue is easier to spot if you press the ribs onto the cutting board.

This membrane prevents ribs from becoming really tender, the "Kitchn" portal defines itself.

The layer of tissue is something like the silver skin * that you see on some pieces of meat and must also be removed before preparation.

This tissue doesn't really soften even after hours of cooking, so you need to get rid of it.

How to make ribs ready to cook

There are several approaches

to removing

the

membrane on the bony side of the ribs

.

Some give the tip not to peel them off at all, just cut them up with a sharp knife so that the heat and spices can penetrate the meat unhindered.

The tough structure remains in place.

If you want to prevent this from happening you will have to do the job and remove the membrane.

This works best with a spoon or a blunt knife and kitchen paper:

  • At the beginning, cut a small hole under the membrane and slide the rounded side of the spoon underneath it.

  • Use the kitchen towel to hold the detached membrane while you work your way with the spoon or knife.

  • Once you've peeled off the entire membrane, you can remove even larger pieces of fat and then season and cook the ribs according to the recipe. 

  • The

    best results

    you can achieve this with the 3-2-1 method that we have described to you here *.
