Applebee’s Baby Back Ribs Recipe
The key to these delicious ribs is a flavorful sauce and a perfectly broiled finish.First, you’ll want to simmer the ribs until they’re tender.Then, slather them with a rich, tangy BBQ sauce.A quick stint under the broiler gives these ribs that iconic caramelized edge.My best tip: don’t skip the broiling step as it adds so much to the texture and taste.
