Indulge in the rich and bold flavors of espresso-crusted baby back ribs, perfectly grilled to tender perfection and glazed with a savory BBQ sauce. The coffee-infused rub adds a unique depth of flavor, making these ribs a standout dish for any BBQ enthusiast.

Ingredients:

• 2 racks baby back ribs
• 1/4 cup finely ground espresso beans
• 2 tablespoons brown sugar
• 1 tablespoon smoked paprika
• 1 tablespoon garlic powder
• 1 tablespoon onion powder
• 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
• Salt and black pepper to taste
• 1 cup BBQ sauce

Instructions:

Warm up the grill over medium-high heat

Take the membrane off of the back of the ribs and use paper towels to dry them

To make the rub, put the ground espresso beans, brown sugar, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper in a bowl and mix them together

Spread the spice mix out on both sides of the ribs and press it into the meat

After the grill is hot, put the ribs on it and cook for 25 to 30 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 145F 63C

For the last 10 minutes of cooking, baste the ribs with BBQ sauce and turn them over several times to make a caramelized crust

After you take the ribs off the grill, let them rest for a few minutes

Then, cut them across the bones

Baby back ribs with an espresso crust should be served with extra BBQ sauce on the side

Enjoy your tasty and tender BBQ ribs that have been infused with espresso!
