How to Make Back Alley Ribs with Matty Matheson

In this episode of How-To, Matty walks us through how to make a modern-day summer classic: back-alley ribs. These sticky pork ribs are first boiled, then finished on a barbecue and smothered with a traditional molasses-based sauce. The grill might be smoking hot, but we want that char guys! Sprinkle your dukka mixture on top with your fresh herbs, and finish with fresh lime and pomegranate juice.
Remember: ribs are about love, so don't share these ribs with people you don't fucking respect. World peace, trolls!

If I saw Matty in public, I think it would take me a few embarrassing moments to remember that he doesn't know me and that we're only best friends in my imagination.

[@rockolutheran]

I feel dat so hard

[@gucciseatbelt9500]

Matty the type of guy just to go along with your imaginative friendship.

[@applewatch4085]

you sure are deluded, PRINCE!

[@chrisz8532]

Haha yeah I met Matty at the Adelaide Beer and BBQ festival. He was pretty unimpressed with me, but I had a great time! Got couple of photos by my mates, and that was that. A quiet dude in real life?

[@williamhendrix3253]

maybe he was stoned? or just doesn’t like talking to strangers that much

I love when he refers to his wife as his roommate

Lol this is probably the funniest Matty video I’ve seen. Somehow I missed this older gem of a video

[@badjujuwan]

Damn, I love this guy's kitchen. Doesn't fuck around with cheap shit! 3 Le Creuset pots - and I think the one at 8:52 is the goose pot.

[@xUnleadedx]

+badjujuwan he's a legit chef

[@moshunit96]

I do my ribs like this but instead of boiling in water i use either apple or pineapple juice. The acidity makes the meat even more tender and adds just a hint of sweetness. Everyone has their own way.

[@samolivarez3546]

Yo i need Matty and Action Bronsalino to collab on a muchies series ASAP!

[@willardjoee]

someone is actually thinking

[@jamelreed3269]

+Aj Hart Exactly

[@aquarellstifte]

This won’t work. Action’s too much of a “thug” compared to Matty’s happy go lucky foul mouthed personality

[@PostItsDead]

I swear I'm gonna run out of Matty videos before a new one comes out.

[@Wol4d]

i swear he literally just came up with random ass ingredients on the spot and was like LETS THROW THIS IN. those are the funkiest ribs I've ever seen lol

[@loopeygoopey]

....what

[@Nerdypugminatures]

Munchies just make episodes with Matty ...period ... All other episodes without him are just wasting space 😁

[@011mtaylor]

I just tried this today. Made the bbq sauce and everything. Skipped the dukka though. The boiling technique for the ribs worked really well, super tender. Be careful though, it's easy to overcook the ribs at this stage and dry them out, and I also used a bit too much salt. For the bbq sauce, I couldn't find pomegranates anywhere. I guess they're out of season? So I ended up just using a cranberry/pomegranate juice from the grocery store. Also some of the spices were expensive as fuck (clove, coriander, mace) so I opted not to use them. Sauce turned out SPICY AS FUCK. Was delicious, oniony and garlicy, although not quite as sweet as I normally like. I guess that's what the pomegranate was supposed to be for. If you're not so tolerant to heat, maybe use fewer jalapenos or add less cayenne. If you're like me and can't find pomegranates anywhere, I recommend adding a few tablespoons of sugar. I ended up using an entire sauce plan of the bbq sauce while grilling, so don't skimp on your sauce. Overall I would definitely recommend you try making these yourself, but with a few minor tweaks to the recipe.

[@RobertMoua]

@vice @munchies, you guys need to send matt on another epic vietnam trip with his master chief. those 2 are the funniest pair ever!

I love his Ricky from TPB vibes, hahaha! Should've named this Gettin' Cookt with Matty.

[@AlwaysIllBlood]

I made a slight adjustment to the bbq sauce. Instead of adding tap water, finish your ribs and take them out of the water, cover them and use the water from the rib boil in the bbq sauce. Adds a lot of flavour depth to it.

[@Pliskin37]

His reaction at 5:31 is priceless.

[@FirstWorldProblemz]

I watched 1 video of yours and thought : nah I'm not gonna watch him again anyway. Then you kept getting suggested and now I'm binge watching you 😄

Off topic but Matty should do a video on reviewing TV cooking devices. Feel like that would be golden 😂🤷🏼‍♀️

[@ndshreddermn]

I like this guy, humor, good cook, but ribs with 20 spices, not smoked like he said, and burnt the fuck out of them at the end...bbq pit man's nightmare.

[@Braskypants1]

Yeah he's funny as fuck, but those ribs are truly sacrilegious.

[@DOODKOOK]

he cooked up some tasty ribs, sorry it aint stone age raw meat over an open fire. bbq aint a thing, its a flowing concept my man. live with the tide, ride the waves of bbq thru what changes they take you

[@MeatPlanet]

Come on, can people stop riding "IT AINT REAL BBQ RIGH DAR!" dick?

[@jonathann4280]

Bet he could cook better than you lol. Food is a pivotal part of almost all cultures around the world. To proclaim there are only certain ways to prepare any type of food is ignorant. As long as it tastes good why should it matter. (P.s I’m pretty sure as a full blown chef Matty does know how to smoke meat)

Man you know its gonna be good when the bone falls off the bones, ooooooo yea!

[@jaketheripper7385]

All the purists bitching about boiling the ribs. I've had ribs from all around the country, and the best recipe I had was from an old black guy in Georgia where I grew up. His recipe involved boiling the ribs. It was an old family recipe and when he moved to Germany he past it on to me to carry on the legacy. I don't think I make them as good as he did, but everyone who eats my ribs tells me they're the best on earth. I've had professional pit masters ask me about my recipe because they want pointers! I've had at least 3 of them pull out a pen and paper while I was telling them. Unfortunately I can only tell them a few of the basics, the rest is a secret I'll take with me to the grave, unless I have kids. I'll admit that matty does a few of the same things for the sauce that I do, but the rest is totally different.

[@Vkesu]

LOL.... All I could think of when you said ... Everyone likes spice,spice is nice, keep the seeds in the jalapeno, you want it to cook down, you want it to .... make your eyes bleed. :)
