Provided by Chef Alli

Categories     Main Course

Time 10h20m

Number Of Ingredients 12

3-4 lbs boneless country style pork ribs
1/3 cup dark brown sugar
1/2 cup soy sauce (may use low sodium soy sauce)
1/2 cup rice vinegar
1/2 cup ketchup
2 Tbs. lemon juice
1 tsp. garlic powder or granulated garlic
1/4 tsp. ground ginger
1 Tbs. sriracha (optional )
1 tsp. kosher salt (optional )
sliced scallions, as garnish ( optional)
sesame seeds, as garnish ( optional)

Steps:

  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the marinade ingredients; pour the prepared marinade into a heavy-duty gallon bag that has been placed into a large bowl. Add the pork ribs to the marinade and seal well; let the ribs marinate in the fridge for at least 8 hours.
  • Preheat the oven to 250 degree F. Wrap two large rimmed baking sheets with heavy-duty foil.Remove the ribs from the marinade, patting each one dry; place the ribs onto one of the foil-lined baking sheets; cover with foil. **Reserve the marinade for use as a sauce later! Bake the ribs, covered, for 1 1/2 hours or until they are starting to become fork-tender. Remove the cooked ribs from the baking sheet (it will be full of grease after cooking the ribs) to the second foil-lined baking sheet.
  • Meanwhile, place the reserved marinade into a sauce pan over medium heat; bring to a boil, simmering the marinade until reduced, about 4-5 minutes. When the sauce is nicely reduced and thickened, remove it from the heat.
  • Slather the ribs with the sauce; continue to bake, uncovered this time, for an additional 30 minutes or until the ribs are very fork-tender, bubbly, and caramelized. Garnish with scallions and sesame seeds, if using. Serve the ribs with warm sauce on the side, if desired.

CHINESE-STYLE BARBECUED RIBS



Chinese-Style Barbecued Ribs image

These are the best oven-roasted ribs ever, and they can also be finished on a grill for extra smoky flavor. Creating steam in the oven is the key to tender meat. The ingredients here are close to the ones used by traditional Cantonese barbecue masters to produce sticky-salty-sweet meat that has a reddish, caramelized crust - with ketchup standing in for Chinese red fermented tofu. (It can be left out if desired.) Although these ribs are presented as an appetizer in many American Chinese restaurants, barbecued meat is traditionally a main course, served with freshly cooked rice and a green side like smashed cucumber salad or stir-fried bok choy.

Categories     dinner, barbecues, finger foods, meat, appetizer, main course

Time 6h

Yield 4 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 cloves garlic, smashed and peeled
4 scallions, white and pale green parts only, plus additional sliced scallion for garnish
3/4 cup hoisin sauce
1/2 cup ketchup, or 4 tablespoons tomato paste or Chinese red bean paste (nan ru)
1/4 cup honey or light corn syrup, more to taste
1/4 cup soy sauce, more to taste
1/3 cup Chinese rice wine or vodka
1/4 cup rice vinegar or cider vinegar
1/2 teaspoon five-spice powder
2 racks baby back or St. Louis-style pork spareribs, 5 to 10 pounds total (see note)
Cilantro leaves, for garnish

Steps:

  • In a food processor or blender, mince garlic and scallions. Add hoisin, ketchup, honey, soy sauce, rice wine or vodka, rice vinegar and five-spice powder. Process until well blended. Taste for sweetness; the mixture should be sweet like barbecue sauce, not candy. Adjust the taste with honey, soy sauce and vinegar.
  • Set aside 1/3 cup marinade for basting. Transfer remaining marinade to a container or pan large enough to hold the ribs, or to large resealable plastic bags. Add ribs and turn until well coated. Refrigerate at least 4 hours, and up to 2 days, turning occasionally in the marinade.
  • Heat oven to 300 degrees. Set up a rimmed baking sheet (or two) with an oven-safe wire rack that fits inside, the kind you'd use for cooling cookies. Line the bottoms of the pans with foil or nonstick baking mats. Place the racks inside the pans and place the empty pans on the bottom rack of the oven. Pour in hot water until it comes about halfway up the sides of the pan. (Do not skip the water: The steam helps cook the meat to the right tenderness.)
  • When the oven is hot, remove the ribs from the marinade and place on the racks, meaty side up. Bake without basting, 1 hour for baby back ribs, 2 hours for St. Louis style ribs. Check the water level occasionally to make sure it hasn't cooked off.
  • Remove ribs from the oven and raise the oven temperature to 450 degrees. Pour off any water from the baking sheet and return the ribs to the racks. (Alternatively, you can finish the ribs on a medium-hot grill; see below.)
  • Return ribs to the oven and roast (or grill), basting 2 or 3 times with reserved marinade, for 20 to 30 minutes (less time for baby backs, more for spareribs). Watch the ribs carefully to make sure that the edges don't burn, and don't baste them too close to the end; they should be dry and sticky, not wet on the surface.
  • Use a big knife to cut between the bones, making sure that each rib has meat on both sides. Mound on a platter, sprinkle with scallions and cilantro, and serve immediately.

Tips:

  • Choose the Right Ribs: Select country-style pork ribs for the best results, as they have a good amount of meat and fat, ensuring a juicy and flavorful dish.
  • Prepare the Ribs: Before cooking, remove the membrane from the back of the ribs to improve their texture and allow the flavors to penetrate more easily.
  • Create a Flavorful Marinade: The marinade is crucial for infusing flavor into the ribs. Use a combination of soy sauce, brown sugar, garlic, ginger, and other Asian-inspired ingredients to create a savory and aromatic marinade.
  • Cook Low and Slow: Slow cooking the ribs allows the meat to become fall-off-the-bone tender and absorb the marinade's flavors thoroughly. Cook them in the oven or a slow cooker for several hours.
  • Glaze the Ribs: Towards the end of the cooking process, glaze the ribs with a mixture of honey, soy sauce, and hoisin sauce. This adds a sweet, sticky, and glossy layer to the ribs, enhancing their appearance and taste.
  • Serve with Accompaniments: Asian-style country ribs pair well with various accompaniments such as steamed rice, stir-fried vegetables, or a refreshing cucumber salad. These sides complement the bold flavors of the ribs and create a balanced meal.

Conclusion:

Asian-style country ribs are a delightful fusion dish that combines the richness of Asian flavors with the classic comfort of country-style ribs. By following these tips and the detailed recipe instructions, you can create fall-off-the-bone tender ribs infused with a harmonious blend of sweet, savory, and umami flavors. Serve these ribs as a main course with your favorite accompaniments and enjoy a delicious and satisfying meal that will surely impress your family and friends.
