I am a big Alton Brown fan, and many years ago I took his suggestion to heart to make his rib recipe my own by changing up the ingredients to his spice rub and braising liquid recipe. My version has become a family favorite, and is often requested for birthday celebrations. I have also used the leftover passion fruit juice after making my Passion Fruit Cake, plus some apple cider, for a delicious flavor twist! UPDATE: I doubled the spice rub and baked four racks of ribs, splitting the braising liquid between the two bags. They were DELICIOUS!!
