Seasoning the Ribs:
This DIY dry rib rub is the secret to the fabulous flavor on these ribs. Mix together the following seasonings:
1/4 cup packed brown sugar, 1/4 cup white sugar, 4 tbsp paprika, 2 tbsp garlic powder, 1 tbsp onion powder, 1 tbsp black pepper, 1 tbsp dried rosemary leaves, 2 tbsp. Umami powder
The recipe calls for my favorite flavor enhancer, dried shiitake mushroom powder (Umami). The flavor booster is fantastic, and the best part is that it is so good for you.
Remove the membrane from the bottom of the ribs (watch the above video on how to do this). Season both sides of the rack of ribs with my Dry Rib Rub before baking in the oven.
