Sous Vide Pork Ribs

Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

Dang, these ribs were easy to make.

Time to make Sous Vide Pork Ribs!

Serves 6-8

Ingredients:

  • 2 racks of pork ribs (1.5 lb each)
  • Kosher Salt
  • Freshly Ground Pepper
  • Chili Con Carne Seasoning or your favorite dry rub

Equipment:

  • All of my recommended kitchen tools are listed here.

Method:

I dried the two racks with paper towels and liberally seasoned them with salt, pepper, and chili con carne seasoning.

I vacuum sealed them…

…and marinated them in the fridge overnight.

In the morning, I filled the SousVide Supreme and set the temperature to 175F. When the water was hot, I dropped in the two packets of ribs and let them cook for 9 hours (Douglas Baldwin says that you should leave them in for 8-12 hours).

In the evening, I removed the ribs from the plastic bags and dried them with paper towels.

Two racks of pork ribs cooked sous vide.

Then, my hubby threw the racks on his hot grill and seared them for a couple minutes on each side.

The ribs were falling off the bone tender and very tasty. However, they were a tad under-salted so you should be pretty heavy-handed with the salt when you initially season it.

I didn’t make a sticky sweet barbecue sauce to go with the ribs (or even a vinegar based one) because, frankly, my dears, I was too lazy. Plus, all the barbecue sauce recipes I found were filled with sugar and I’m not sure how to Paleo-ize them without being disappointed. And let me reiterate – I’m too lazy.
