Preparation
- Preheat oven to 275ºF (135°C).
- Rub ribs with a little olive oil and sprinkle generously with salt on both sides.
- Wrap ribs in aluminum foil and cook in the oven for 2½ –3 hours, until tender.
- While ribs are cooking, make the sauce. Place Frank’s Red Hot Buffalo Wing Sauce, butter, and honey in a small pot over medium heat. Bring to a simmer, whisking regularly. Let simmer until slightly reduced, 5–7 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
- After cooking, unwrap ribs and let cool for a few minutes. Flip ribs over so the bones are showing. Carefully pull out each bone. Brush both sides of the now-boneless rack with the buffalo butter sauce. Slice rack in half.
- Raise oven temperature to 400ºF (205°C). Place ribs in oven and cook for 10–15 minutes, until the ribs are caramelized. Remove from oven.
- Keeping the Hawaiian rolls attached to each other, slice rolls in half so that the top comes off in one sheet. Place bottom sheet of buns on a sheet tray.
- Place the rib-rack halves onto the bun. Drizzle with more Frank’s Red Hot Buffalo Wing Sauce. Top with caramelized onions, blue cheese, and the top sheet of buns.
- Move tray to oven and bake for 5 minutes, until cheese has melted. Remove from oven, slice, and serve!
- Enjoy!
