Recreate the mythical Ribwich sandwich from The Simpsons with this fun recipe that captures its savory flavors and iconic status!

  • Total Time: 45 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1.5 lbs boneless country-style ribs
  • 1 cup BBQ sauce (your favorite brand)
  • 4 hoagie rolls or similar buns
  • 1/2 cup dill pickle slices
  • 1/2 cup chopped onions
  • Lettuce leaves (optional)
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Optional: liquid smoke for a boost of smoky flavor

Instructions

  1. Cut the boneless country-style ribs into rib-shaped patties, season with salt, pepper, and liquid smoke (if desired), and marinate with half the BBQ sauce for at least 30 minutes.
  2. Preheat your grill to medium heat and grill each side of the rib patties for 4-5 minutes, basting with the remaining BBQ sauce.
  3. Prepare hoagie rolls or buns by toasting lightly if desired; slice dill pickles, chop onions, and wash lettuce leaves.
  4. Assemble your Ribwich by placing a rib patty on the bottom half of each bun, layering on lettuce, onions, and pickles, then topping with the other half of the bun.

Notes

  • Marinate the ribs for several hours or overnight for optimal flavor.
  • Choose a high-quality BBQ sauce as it will be a dominant flavor in the sandwich.
  • Toasting the buns prevents sogginess and adds a nice texture.
  • Customize with toppings like coleslaw or cheese for personal flair.
  • Consider using liquid smoke or grilling over wood chips for added smokiness.
