Tip:
Full racks of Korean- or Maui-style ribs can be used instead of beef back ribs. When working with thinly sliced ribs it is not necessary to cut the ribs into single sections. For better presentation, we recommend leaving this style whole to serve.
Wrapping ribs in foil and cooking at a low temperature is known as a “Texas Crutch”. This helps meat become tender and juicy without braising them in a lot of liquid.
