Freezing Leftover Ribs

This is the best part of rib making: the leftovers! We’ve frozen ribs in smaller portions and they always thaw and re-heat perfectly. Since there’s just two of us, we’ll freeze them in quart size bags that’s enough for two servings. That’s about six ribs. But if we know we might be having friends over for dinner, we’ll freeze larger portions.

How to Get a Char on Oven-Baked Ribs

Cooking the ribs in the oven is so easy to consistently get a juicy, tender rib. For for a little extra deliciousness, we’ll char the ribs to give another layer of texture and to caramelize the sauce a touch.

You can either grill or broil to get the crust. Slice the ribs into serving sizes (usually 1-2 ribs together). Brush with some sauce. On the grill over direct heat, sear each side of the ribs for 2-3 minutes or until each side has a little char. Or heat oven to broil and place oven rack about 6 inches down from the top and broil for 2 minutes or until slightly singed. As always, these are best served warm, but we’ve been know to devour them at room temp.

How Do We Re-Heat our Leftover Ribs?

We have a standard ways: if frozen, first we take the ribs out to thaw the night before. We’ll put the ribs in the fridge overnight. By the next morning if they are still frozen, we’ll put them on the counter to thaw completely. Be careful to not put them to close to the edge of the counter because the dogs will be eager to have a bite! After thawing, here’s different ways we’ll re-heat ribs depending on how much time we have:

  • Grill: Same as above to get the char. Brush with some sauce then put them on the grill over direct heat and sear each side of the ribs for 2-3 minutes or until each side has a little char.
  • Oven: Brush with a little more sauce and you can either warm them in the oven at 350°F for about 10 minutes or until heated through. Or for a little char finish under the broiler for a couple minutes. If broiling, you can also pre-warm them in the microwave to get the center warm, then put them under the broiler.
  • Air Fryer: We’ll brush them with a little sauce and heat them in the air fryer at 380°F for about 7-10 minutes, depending on how many ribs are in the air fryer. Keep checking the air fryer after the first 7 minutes to make sure they don’t burn. But we like our ribs a little crispy on the edges so we’ll usually air fryer for a little longer.
  • Microwave: this is the quickest method and will still keep the ribs moist.
