Description

A homemade version of the iconic McRib sandwich with tender pork, smoky BBQ sauce, and crunchy toppings.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 lbs Pork Spare Ribs
  • 1 cup BBQ Sauce
  • 4 Hamburger Buns
  • 1 cup Pickles
  • 1/2 cup Sliced Onions
  • 2 tbsp Mustard

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven or grill: Heat your grill over medium or preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C).
  2. Season the ribs: Generously sprinkle salt and pepper over the pork spare ribs.
  3. Cook the ribs: Place the seasoned ribs in the oven or on the grill until tender (about 2-3 hours in the oven or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C) when grilling).
  4. Brush with BBQ sauce: 30 minutes before finishing, brush the ribs with BBQ sauce to caramelize.
  5. Rest the ribs: Let them rest for 10-15 minutes after cooking.
  6. Warm the buns: Lightly toast your hamburger buns.
  7. Slice the ribs into sandwich-sized portions.
  8. Assemble the sandwich: Place rib slices on buns, add pickles, onions, and mustard.
  9. Serve immediately with friends and family!

Notes

Prepare ribs a day ahead for deeper flavor. Consider adding jalapeños for heat or avocado slices for creaminess.
