Rodeo Tales & Gypsy Trails: Finger Lickin Good BBQ RIB RECIPE by Mary Stoecklein

FINGER LICKIN' GOOD BBQ Ribs...delicious, fall off the bone, grilled to perfection! Oh my! Oh my! Over a year ago, I had the honor of attending a David Stoecklein Photography Workshop. It was as amazing as it sounds....and it would be paired with an equally AMAZING MENU! The meals were prepared by none other than the beautiful and talented, Mrs. Mary Stoecklein and Jolene Zollinger!

I had the great privilege of attending a Stoecklein Winter Photography Workshop this past month. With a little begging, pleading, and a PRETTY PLEASE with a cherry on top.......they agreed to SHARE their AMAZING FINGER LICKIN' GOOD BBQ Ribs Recipe with us! How cool is that! Not only that, the talented upcoming Photographer, Mrs. Mary Stoecklein, was gracious enough to provide mouth watering photos to go along with this great recipe!

Right here on Rodeo Tales and Gypsy Trails, with Mary Stoecklein's FINGER LICKIN' GOOD BBQ Ribs Recipe debut!

(Yes, I'm ridiculously excited to share this with you! Almost as excited as I was to indulge in this deliciousness!)

Mary Stoecklein's FINGER LICKIN' GOOD BBQ Ribs

Meet the Meat! Start with Pork Loin Back Ribs. Rinse off the ribs and pat dry.

Season with Salt and Pepper or any seasoning you like. Montreal Steak Seasoning was the ticket at the workshop!

Oh my goodness....doesn't it look divine already! THANK YOU so much to Mary Stoecklein for not only sharing her Finger Lickin' Good Recipe but also her talented photography skills!

Cut pork loin baby back ribs in sections of 1 or 2.

Pour Coke, not diet, into the pan about 1/2 inch.

Place cut and seasoned ribs in pan
and cover tightly with foil.

Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Place in oven for 3 hours, do not open door.

After 3 hours start BBQ and place ribs on grill and baste with BBQ sauce on both sides.

(HUGE THANK YOU to Mary and Jolene for braving the sub-zero temperatures and wind chill to not only grill this amazing meal but to snag a picture on the grill!)

Additional Side Note about Grilling: "Jolene and I put the ribs on a charcoal grill when coals are glowing. You need to work fast or the BBQ sauce will burn on the ribs....hate that! We have a grill that we can raise so we have better control. If using a gas grill put it on medium. Place ribs on grill and immediately baste them with the sauce,then turn over and baste other side, Remember they are fully cooked so you are warming them up and cooking in the BBQ sauce. Serve extra BBQ sauce on the side." ~ Mary

TIME to EAT!
Ok, here is where I absolutely must apologize....I had every intention of getting a final picture of the beautiful plating of the ribs and amazing setting that Mary serves.....but when those ribs get in reach....the are undeniable and MUST be consumed immediately! Before we realized it we had a plate licked clean and nothing but the bare bones remained!
Oh my! My mouth is watering just thinking about the FINGER LICKIN' GOOD deliciousness!

Thank You so much to Mary Stoecklein, again for sharing her time and talents! Thank You to the entire Stoecklein family for a great weekend soaking up knowledge!
