Provided by Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 8h50m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 39

1/2 cup bourbon
2/3 cup honey
2 tablespoons brown sugar
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/2 cup diced white onion
2 teaspoons chopped garlic
One 12-ounce bottle of your favorite beer
1/2 cup cooked bacon, coarsely chopped
1/8 cup apple cider vinegar
2 cups ketchup
1/4 cup molasses
1/3 cup granulated sugar
3 tablespoons brisket drippings
2 tablespoons chili powder
1 tablespoon Worcestershire
Kosher salt and pepper
1/4 cup kosher salt
1/4 cup coarse black pepper
1/8 cup Korean chile powder
1/8 cup granulated garlic
Canola oil, for rubbing the ribs and smoker grates
2 racks pork spareribs
1 cup apple cider vinegar, in a spray bottle
Garnish: sliced green onions
4 to 6 cups half-and-half
1 tablespoon chopped garlic
1 tablespoon chipotle hot sauce
1 teaspoon ground roasted cumin
1 teaspoon seafood seasoning
1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves
1/2 cup shredded American cheese
1 pound medium pasta shells, cooked to al dente
1 cup diced cooked green chiles
1 cup shredded jack cheese
1 1/2 cups shredded sharp Cheddar
1 cup shredded smoked Gouda
Kosher salt and pepper
2/3 cup toasted buttered breadcrumbs
1 teaspoon Korean chile powder

Steps:

  • For the honey bourbon glaze: Pour the bourbon into a saucepan over low heat; ignite bourbon to burn off the alcohol for about 5 minutes. Add the honey and brown sugar and whisk to thicken. Simmer for another 3 minutes, then remove from heat. Pour glaze into a small bowl and set aside.
  • For the beer bacon bbq sauce: Heat a large pot on high heat, then add the butter and let it melt for 1 to 2 minutes. Reduce heat to medium. Add the onions and garlic. Saute until translucent. Add the beer and bacon and cook for 8 to 10 minutes. Add the apple cider vinegar and reduce by a quarter, then add ketchup, molasses, granulated sugar, brisket drippings, chili powder, Worcestershire, salt and pepper and cook on low heat for 30 to 45 minutes, stirring occasionally. Let cool for 10 minutes, then puree in a blender until smooth, and season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • For the ribs: Whisk together the salt, pepper, chile powder and garlic powder in a small bowl. Drizzle a little canola oil over the ribs, front and back, then rub the oil in. Holding your hand high, season both sides of the ribs with rub. Be sure to get an even coating on both sides, along with the sides of the ribs.
  • Soak 5 to 6 paper towels with canola oil, then open the smoker lid and place soaked paper towels in the smoker with 1 chunk hickory, 2 small chunks apple wood and a few handfuls charcoal. Light the paper towels. Let the coals burn down for 20 to 30 minutes. Add a couple more chunks hickory, apple and charcoal, then let smoker come up to 250 degrees F. Place a small pan of water on smoker rack, then place ribs in smoker. Let cook 30 to 40 minutes.
  • Add another chunk of each wood and more charcoal; repeat this process every 30 to 45 minutes. At 2 hours into the cooking process, spritz ribs with apple cider vinegar, then spritz every 30 minutes until the third hour of cooking. At the third hour, wrap the ribs in foil and place back on the smoker. At the 4 1/2-hour mark, take the ribs out of foil and glaze with the honey bourbon. Let glaze set in for 20 to 30 minutes in the smoker meat-side up. Let ribs rest for 10 to 15 minutes, then slice. Drizzle ribs with Beer Bacon BBQ sauce and toss. Garnish the ribs with sliced scallions.
  • For the Southwestern Green Chili Mac 'n' Cheese: Meanwhile, heat four cups half-and-half to a gentle boil in a medium-large saucepot. Add the garlic, chipotle sauce, cumin, seafood seasoning and thyme, then add the American cheese, whisking until smooth and melted. Fold in the pasta and green chiles and heat through until lightly bubbly. Add the shredded jack, Cheddar and Gouda. If the pasta is too thick, add in another cup or two of half-and-half to smooth it out. Season to taste with salt and fresh ground pepper. Garnish with toasted buttered breadcrumbs and a sprinkle of Korean chile flakes.
  • If you prefer baked mac 'n' cheese, place pasta into a casserole dish, sprinkle a handful of extra Cheddar and jack cheeses on top and bake at 350 degrees F until browned and bubbly, about 30 minutes.

BEER RIBS



Beer Ribs image

Beer isn't just for drinking. Here, it's drizzled on top of the ribs to help the meat break down as it cooks low and slow in an oven. It's also the star ingredient in the barbecue sauce that glazes these super tender ribs that are finished off on a grill for a slightly smoky flavor.

Provided by Eddie Jackson

Categories     main-dish

Time 9h10m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 tablespoons light brown sugar
2 tablespoons smoked paprika
1 tablespoon celery salt
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon onion powder
1/4 teaspoon ground allspice
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Two 1 1/2-pound racks baby back ribs
One 12-ounce bottle bock-style or dark beer
1 small shallot, minced
1/2 cup ketchup
1/4 cup molasses
2 tablespoons whole-grain mustard
1 tablespoon chipotle in adobo sauce plus 1 tablespoon chopped chipotle
1 tablespoon sherry vinegar
Vegetable oil, for the grill grates

Steps:

  • Combine the light brown sugar, smoked paprika, celery salt, garlic powder, onion powder, allspice, 2 tablespoons salt and a generous amount of pepper in a small bowl. Rub the mixture on both sides of the rib racks.
  • Wrap each rib rack in 3 pieces of aluminum foil and refrigerate for 6 hours and up to overnight.
  • Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F. Place the ribs side-by-side on a baking sheet. Unwrap the foil slightly, pour 2 tablespoons beer over each rib rack and then seal the foil tightly. Bake until the ribs are tender, and the meat can easily be pierced and pulled away with a fork, about 2 hours 30 minutes. Let cool, uncovered, until warm, about 20 minutes. Alternatively, cover and refrigerate for up to 1 day.
  • Put the shallots and remaining beer in a small saucepan and bring to a boil over high heat. Boil until the beer reduces to 1/4 cup, about 10 minutes. Whisk in the ketchup, molasses, whole-grain mustard, chipotle in adobo sauce, chopped chipotle and sherry vinegar. Reduce the heat to medium-low and let simmer, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens slightly and reduces to about 1 1/4 cups, 8 to 10 minutes.
  • Prepare a grill or large grill pan for medium-high heat. Clean and oil the grill grates.
  • Brush the top of each rack of ribs with 1/4 cup of the barbecue sauce. Working in batches as needed, grill, sauce-side down, until browned and slightly charred, about 4 minutes. Cut the ribs between the bones, slather with the remaining 1 cup of sauce and serve.

Time 8h

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 16

4 lbs pork baby back ribs
36 ounces beer
3 tablespoons kosher salt
3 tablespoons packed brown sugar
1 tablespoon celery seed
1 tablespoon cayenne pepper
1 1/2 teaspoons black pepper
1 teaspoon liquid smoke (optional)

2 -3 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons oil
1 1/2 cups Heinz Chili Sauce
1 cup beer
1/2 cup honey
1/4 cup Worcestershire sauce
2 tablespoons prepared yellow mustard

Steps:

  • Prepare your ribs by rinsing them off and removing the membrane on the back (slide a sharp knife under there to loosen it, then grab it with something dry like a paper towel and pull it off).
  • You may cut your ribs into sections before brining, if desired.
  • Mix together beer, salt, brown sugar, celery seed, cayenne pepper, black pepper and liquid smoke in a saucepan.
  • Heat over low heat, stirring gently until all the salt dissolves; allow to cool.
  • Place rib sections in a large ziplock or resealable bag and pour the cooled brine over; squeeze out as much air as possible and seal the bag.
  • Allow the ribs to brine in this mixture, for 6 hours or overnight, rotating bag occasionally.
  • Prior to cooking, remove ribs from brine and pat dry; discard used brine.
  • Using a drip pan, prepare a grill for indirect cooking.
  • Place the ribs over the drip pan and grill using indirect medium heat (test by placing your hand over the heat- you should be able to keep it there for about 3 seconds).
  • Cover grill and cook for 1 1/2- 1 3/4 hours or until the ribs are tender, and the meat has pulled back from the edges of the bone slightly.
  • Add additional coals during cooking if needed.
  • Baste with honey bbq sauce during the last minutes of cooking, allowing the sauce to set.
  • To make the sauce, cook onion and garlic in oil in a small saucepan until the onions become tender.
  • Add the chili sauce, beer, honey, Worcestershire sauce and mustard to the pan, stirring to mix well.
  • Bring sauce to a boil, then lower heat and simmer for about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally, or until it is as thick as you like it.
  • Use sauce on ribs as a baste; sauce can be prepared ahead.

  • Don't overcrowd the marinade. The ribs should be able to move around freely in the marinade so that they can absorb the flavors evenly.
  • Let the ribs marinate for at least 1 hour, or up to overnight. The longer the ribs marinate, the more flavorful they will be.
  • When grilling the ribs, cook them over indirect heat. This will help to prevent them from drying out.
  • Baste the ribs with the leftover marinade during cooking. This will help to keep them moist and flavorful.
  • Serve the ribs with your favorite sides, such as coleslaw, potato salad, and corn on the cob.

Conclusion:

Beer honey marinade is a great way to add flavor and tenderness to spare ribs. The combination of beer, honey, and spices creates a delicious and unique flavor that is sure to please everyone. Whether you're grilling, smoking, or baking the ribs, this marinade will help you create a mouthwatering dish that will be the star of your next party or gathering.
