Getting Started: Preparing the Ribs
Before we dive into the recipe, it’s important to make sure that your ribs are prepped properly. Here’s what you need to know:
Step 1: Trim and Season the Ribs
To start, you’ll want to trim any excess fat off of your ribs. This will help prevent them from becoming chewy and give you the best final product. Once the ribs are trimmed, you can season them with your favorite all-purpose seasoning. We recommend using Level Up A Rub seasoning for a perfect balance of flavor.
Step 2: Heat Your Oil
Once your ribs are seasoned, it’s time to heat your oil. You’ll want to preheat your deep fryer or a large pot of oil to 350 degrees Fahrenheit for the best results.
Step 3: Fry the Ribs
When your oil is hot and ready, carefully place your ribs in the pot or fryer. Make sure not to overcrowd the pot as this can lead to uneven cooking. Allow the ribs to cook for about 8-10 minutes or until they reach an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit. Once they’re done, carefully remove them from the oil, and place them onto a paper towel-lined tray to drain.
