Ribs are the undisputed champs of the BBQ world—there's just something about that tender, fall-off-the-bone meat that makes them a must-have at any backyard cookout. They're comforting, crowd-pleasing, and surprisingly easy to prepare ahead of time, so you can spend less time in the kitchen and more time enjoying the day. But let’s be real: it’s the sauce that truly sets a good rack of ribs apart from the rest.

That’s where our Berry & Brine Victorian BBQ Sauce comes in. This isn’t your average BBQ sauce—it’s a rich, sweet, and tangy masterpiece that brings something truly special to the table. The unique blend of tart rhubarb, warm baking spices, and brown sugar creates a flavor profile that’s both comforting and unexpected. If you haven’t yet experienced the magic of rhubarb in a savory dish, you’re in for a treat.

Imagine slathering this sauce over a rack of perfectly seasoned ribs, letting it caramelize into a sticky, flavorful glaze as the meat cooks to tender perfection. The result? Ribs that are not just delicious, but downright unforgettable. Garnish with a bit of fresh parsley for that final touch, and you’ve got yourself a dish that’s sure to impress at your next BBQ. I’m already getting hungry just thinking about it!

What is in Victiorian BBQ Ribs?

Rack of Ribs
Ribs are the foundation of this recipe, offering rich, tender meat that’s perfect for BBQ. Choose a large, meaty rack for the best results. Pork ribs are the classic choice, as they’re easy to cook and full of flavor.

Kosher Salt
Kosher salt is essential for seasoning the ribs, helping to enhance the natural flavors of the meat. It’s coarser than regular table salt, which makes it easier to control and less likely to over-salt. Season generously before cooking.

Victorian BBQ Sauce
Our Berry & Brine Victorian BBQ Sauce is the star of the show, adding a rich, sweet, and tangy flavor to the ribs. Made with tart rhubarb, warm spices, and brown sugar, it creates a unique glaze that’s both comforting and unexpected.

Pepper
Pepper adds a bit of spice and balances the sweetness of the BBQ sauce. Use freshly ground black pepper for the best flavor—it’s more aromatic and has a better bite than pre-ground pepper.

Fresh Parsley
Fresh parsley is the perfect garnish, adding a pop of color and a hint of freshness to the finished ribs. Roughly chop the parsley and sprinkle it over the ribs just before serving to brighten up the dish.
