2 slabs baby back ribs DRY INGREDIENTS: 8 tablespoons light brown sugar, tightly packed 3 tablespoons kosher salt 1 tablespoon chili powder 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper 1/2 teaspoon Old Bay Seasoning 1/2 teaspoon rubbed thyme 1/2 teaspoon onion powder saffron WET INGREDIENTS: 1 cup white wine 2 tablespoons white wine vinegar 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce 1 tablespoon honey 2 cloves garlic, chopped Combine dry ingredients. Place each slab on heavy-duty aluminum foil, shiny side down, in glass oven pan. Add rub liberally to both sides. Pat. Wrap foil over ribs and crimp loosely. Refrigerate for a minimum of 1 hour. Combine wet ingredients. Microwave on high for 1 minute. Open one end of the foil on each slab and pour in half of the liquid; tilt the baking sheet to evenly distribute liquid. Fold open end of foil over loosely. Braise the ribs in the oven for 2 1/2 hours at 225 F. Much OCD required; use an oven thermometer and check obsessively to ensure no deviation from 225. Transfer remaining liquid and liquid drained from ribs into a sauce pot. Bring the liquid to a simmer and reduce by half or until thick. Brush glaze onto ribs. Place under broiler just until glaze caramelizes lightly. Slice each slab into 2 rib bone portions. Place the remaining hot glaze into a bowl and toss. Exclaim, "MOO!" then serve.
