Use IPA beer to enhance the fall flavors of slow-cooked oven-roasted baby back ribs.

IPA-Braised Baby Back Ribs

Preheat oven to 225 degrees. Generously apply rub to all sides of rib rack.

Combine 1 cup beer, shallot, garlic, soy sauce, and cinnamon stick in a shallow roasting pan. Place ribs, bone sides down, in pan. Cover with foil.

Bake ribs for 2-1/2 hours or until very tender (180 degrees). Remove from oven; carefully drain fat from roasting pan.

Preheat broiler. Whisk together barbeque sauce, turmeric, and remaining 1/2 cup beer. Brush ribs with some of the sauce and broil 3 to 5 minutes or until golden brown and a crust has formed. Let stand for 5 minute before serving. Garnish with thyme, if desired. Serve with remaining sauce.
