    Impressed the entire party - my friends think I am grill master. I used the 350+250(2 hr. method and the ribs were incredible. The only 'problem' I encountered was the rack was hard to grill because the meet kept falling off the bone. Quite a good problem to have : I also added bourbon to the glaze. My mouth is watering already.

    The flavor of the ribs was great...they were not the "fall off the bone" as I thought they would be, but tender. I cooked them for 3 hours at 250 and they needed another hour at least. I did use baby back ribs as well.

    Completely perfect. I subbed apple juice for the orange juice because I was out of OJ. I baked at 350 for one hour and then decreased to 250 for 2 hours as suggested by a previous commenter and the ribs were perfectly juicy and falling off the bone. mmmmmmm.

    This recipe is in Alton's first book ("I'm only here for the food". Note that the cooking time needs modification! Braise at 350° for one hour and drop oven temp to 250° for 2 hours. This assures "fall off the bone" tenderness. You can also pressure cook for 1 hour. The overnight cooling after cooking isn't necessary but makes the glazing much easier. The meat is very delicate otherwise. A quick grilling , 5 minutes a side over a charcoal fire, with sauce, produces as good a rib as you will ever taste. I served this to a huge family gathering (I didn't know half the people and could have been elected Pope as a result. One of the best recipes in my repertoire. Correct the braise time and make it!

    My family loves these ribs! Never any leftovers. I've made them as written and they are fabulous. I have also made them and used store bought bbq sauce and they are tasty as well.

    recipe was fantabulous. i cut the racks in half. added extra spices. i let them rest for 2 days. instead of brown suger i used splenda brown sugar. left them in over for 2.5 hours and used my own glaze consisting of apple cider vinegar ketchup molasses w sauce splenda brown sugar s+p garlic powder red pepper honey and a splach of liquid smoke. immediatly grilled them after the oven and wow perfect!

    I love Alton, and LOVE this recipe! The braising liquid is great, and it's honestly fine without it too (have made it both ways when I'm out of white wine. I get a REALLY good cut of baby backs and lap this up with anyone that is around to help me eat them. Instead of broiling mine, I put on my homemade sauce and place them on the grill turning them every 10 minutes for another 25-30min. I'm dying to try Michael Chicarello's version soon!

    This recipe is great, I have made it a couple of times. Last time, however, I was missing some of the ingredients so instead of the orange juice and drink mix, I used apple cider and a broken up cinnamon stick. Once on the grill I just used Bullseye barbecue sauce. They were really good as well. Thinks method of cooking ribs is so much better than boiling them.
