We used to have this dish during happy hour at a place downtown called Mars Bar. They used a hoisin barbeque sauce which give the dish a wonderful Asian twist. Here is my take on the dish.
Ingredients:
1 rack baby back ribsBarbeque sauce
Hoisin sauce
Salt & pepper
Paprika
Russet potato's
Roasted garlic
Preparation:
Start by making sure to remove the silver skin on the back side of the ribs. Most of the time it has already been removed, but if not, here is how you do it. Silver skin is really slippery and hard to remove unless you know how. Take a small knife and pull up piece of the silver skin. Use a piece of paper towel and grab the silver skin and pull. As you pull off, use more of the paper towel to help you remove the rest of silver skin.
Cut the rack into 4 pieces. Because one end is really thick and the other thin, you will like likely have just 2 ribs on the thick end and 4 on the other end so the portions are about the same. Now you can go crazy with rubs and seasonings or you can just go with salt, pepper and paprika and finish with bbq sauce which is what I did.

Once you've portioned the rack, generously season with salt, pepper and paprika. Cook on a barbeque on low for 1 hour turning the ribs every 15 minutes. If the ribs start to burn, you've got the to turn down the fire to low.
After one hour, remove the ribs from the barbeque to a baking pan. What you want to do now is to build up layers of barbeque sauce. Combine your favorite bbq sauce with a jar of hoisin sauce which you can find in the Asian section of the grocery store.
Brush on a layer of sauce and put the ribs in a 300 degree oven. After ten minutes or so take the ribs out and brush on another layer of bbq sauce. Do this a couple more times and the ribs should be done.

Check to make sure you ribs and completely cooked by poking with a fork. If the fork goes though very easily then you done. Serve the ribs on a bed of roasted garlic mashed potato's.
