    Broil ribs 2 to 4 minutes or until sticky, crispy and blackened in spots.

Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    No broiler? No problem. While broiling adds nice flavor and color, the ribs will still be delicious if you need to skip that step.
  • tip 2
    Don’t substitute larger ribs for the baby back ribs. This recipe was designed for the smaller racks, and larger ribs will not get tender in the same amount of time.
