BAKED HAWAIIAN STYLE BABY BACK PORK RIBS



Baked Hawaiian Style Baby Back Pork Ribs image

Delicious Hawaiian Style Ribs baked in the oven

Time P1DT4h8S

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/3 C Ground smoked paprika
1/4 C Light brown sugar
3 tablespoon NOH Hawaiian Kalua Seasoning Salt
2 tablespoon Garlic Powder
1 tablespoon Onion Powder
1 1/2 teaspoon Ground Black Pepper
1 C Yellow or Mild Mustard
2/3 C Pineapple juice
3 lbs baby back St Louis Style Ribs
1 Bottle Hawaiian BBQ Sauce

Steps:

  • Set out plastic wrap. Remove the membrane from the back of the ribs by slipping a knife between the membrane and bone of one of the ribs until it starts to separate and you can get a good grip on it with your hand and pull the membrane off. It should come off easily. Repeat for all racks of ribs In a small bowl combine the mustard and pineapple juice and mix well. Brush on both sides of all three racks of ribs. Place on a tray, meat side up so the marinade doesn't smear off on the tray and marinade for one hour in the refrigerator. In another small bowl combine the spice rub. Set out a long piece of plastic wrap. Sprinkle a tablespoon or so of the spice rub on the underneath side of one of the racks of ribs and place the rack of ribs on the piece of plastic wrap, sprinkle another few tablespoons, 2-3, of the rub on the top/meat side of the ribs then wrap in plastic wrap gently pressing it against both sides of the ribs. Repeat with remaining racks of ribs, reserving 2-3 tablespoons of rub mixture. Refrigerate the plastic wrapped ribs on a tray at least 6 hours up to 24 hours. When ready to bake the ribs, remove them from the oven and let come to cool room temperature about 35-45 minutes. Preheat oven to 250 Deg F. Line a large baking tray with foil and place baking racks on top. Remove the plastic wrap from the ribs one rack at a time and wrap in foil, sprinkling a tablespoon of the reserved spice rub mixture over the top before completely wrapping in foil. Place in a center rack in oven, ribs can be next to each other on one tray or if they are too big you can place them on separate trays on separate racks of the oven. Bake for 3 hours, switching trays if using two racks of the oven at the halfway point. Remove the foil and bake for another hour or until you reach 180 internal temperature or a bone gives way easily when pressed. Slather the tops of the racks of ribs generously with bbq sauce then broil, about 6" away from the heat source for 3-5 minutes until bubbling and starting to char a little. Keep a close eye on the ribs so they don't burn when broiling. Rest ribs for 5 minutes before serving. Serve with more sauce, Hawaiian BBQ potato chips, slaw or salad, pineapple slices and of course Hawaiian beer. Kona Brewing Co Fire Rock Pale ale is one of my favorite beers to drink when eating ribs.

BABY BACK RIBS WITH SPICY PEACH BBQ SAUCE



Baby Back Ribs with Spicy Peach BBQ Sauce image

Provided by Giada De Laurentiis

Time 4h20m

Yield 2 to 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 tablespoons light brown sugar
1 tablespoon kosher salt
2 teaspoons smoked paprika
2 racks pork baby back ribs (about 5 pounds total), membrane removed
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
1 small onion, diced
1 clove garlic, chopped
One 3-inch piece ginger, peeled and chopped
One 10-ounce bag frozen peaches, thawed
3/4 cup apple cider vinegar
1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon Calabrian chili paste

Steps:

  • For the ribs: Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F.
  • In a small bowl, mix together the sugar, salt and paprika. Place the ribs on 2 sheets of aluminum foil large enough to wrap around them and seal. Rub the ribs evenly on all sides with the sugar mixture. Bring the foil up and around the ribs and crimp closed. Place on a rimmed baking sheet. Bake until tender but not falling apart, about 3 1/2 hours. Allow to cool slightly, about 30 minutes.
  • For the sauce: Heat a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the oil, onion, garlic and ginger to the pan and cook, stirring often with a wooden spoon, until the onions are soft and fragrant, about 4 minutes. Add the peaches and stir to coat with the flavors. Add the vinegar, sugar, salt and Calabrian chili and stir to combine. Bring to a simmer, then reduce the heat to low to maintain a gentle simmer. Add any dripping that may have accumulated on the baking sheet from the pork. Simmer until the peaches are very soft, about 30 minutes. Using an immersion blender, puree the sauce until it is as smooth or as chunky as you like.
  • Preheat the broiler to high heat. Spoon one-quarter of the sauce all over the ribs. Broil for 4 minutes. Remove and repeat the process another 2 times, until the sauce is thick, sticky and golden brown. Serve with more sauce on the side if desired.

FOOLPROOF RIBS WITH BARBECUE SAUCE



Foolproof Ribs with Barbecue Sauce image

Ina Garten's secret to perfect grilled ribs: Cook them in the oven first! "There are two great benefits of this method. First, instead of fussing with the heat of the coals, all I have to do is put the ribs in the oven, set a timer and forget about them. Second (and even better): I can make them ahead! Early in the day, I'll roast the ribs, and just before serving, I'll fire up the grill and barbecue them. All the fun of cooking outdoors and I never need to call 911!"

Provided by Ina Garten

Time 2h45m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

5 pounds Danish baby back ribs (4 racks) or St. Louis ribs (2 racks)
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 recipe Barbecue Sauce (recipe follows)
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1 1/2 cups chopped yellow onion (1 large onion)
1 tablespoon minced garlic (3 cloves)
1 cup (10 ounces) tomato paste
1 cup cider vinegar
1 cup honey
1/2 cup Worcestershire sauce
1 cup Dijon mustard
1/2 cup soy sauce
1 cup (8 ounces) hoisin sauce
2 tablespoons chili powder
1 tablespoon ground cumin
1/2 tablespoon crushed red pepper flakes

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a sheet pan with aluminum foil.
  • Place the ribs on the sheet pan meat-side up and sprinkle them with 2 teaspoons salt and 1 teaspoon pepper. Pour the barbecue sauce generously on each rack and cover the ribs loosely with aluminum foil. Bake for 1 1/2 hours for baby backs and 1 3/4 hours for St. Louis ribs, until the meat is very tender when tested with a fork. As soon as the ribs are out of the oven, spread them generously with additional barbecue sauce. Grill right away or refrigerate to grill later.
  • About 40 minutes before you want to serve, heat a charcoal grill with a layer of hot coals or heat a gas grill to medium-high heat. After the charcoal turns gray, brush the cooking grate with oil to keep the ribs from sticking. Place the ribs on the grill ribs-side down, put the lid on top (be sure both vents are open!) and grill for 5 minutes. Turn the ribs meat-side down, put the lid back on and grill for another 4 to 5 minutes, until nicely browned. Place on a cutting board and cover tightly with aluminum foil and allow the ribs to rest for 10 minutes. Cut into ribs and serve hot with extra barbecue sauce on the side.
  • Heat the oil in a large saucepan over low heat, add the onions and cook for 10 to 15 minutes, until the onions are translucent but not browned. Add the garlic and cook for one more minute. Add the tomato paste, vinegar, honey, Worcestershire sauce, mustard, soy sauce, hoisin sauce, chili powder, cumin and pepper flakes.
  • Bring to a boil, then lower the heat and simmer uncovered for 30 minutes. Use immediately or pour into a container and refrigerate for several weeks.

  • Use a good quality BBQ sauce: The BBQ sauce is the star of this dish, so make sure you use a good one. You can use a store-bought BBQ sauce or make your own.

  • Use a meat thermometer to ensure that the ribs are cooked to the desired doneness.
  • Serve the ribs with your favorite sides, such as coleslaw, potato salad, or baked beans.
