MOM'S STOVETOP PORK RIBS
This is how my Brazilian mom prepares pork ribs. Boiling the ribs with the seasonings ensures that the meat will remain moist and juicy, and that the flavors will fully penetrate the meat. I hope you like these as much as I always have! Serve with lime wedges, rice and a fresh green salad.

Steps:
- Place the spareribs into a large pot, and fill with just enough water to cover. Add the soy sauce, garlic, rosemary, oregano, bay leaves, lime juice and 3/4 of the parsley. Bring to a boil, then simmer uncovered over medium heat until the water has completely evaporated, about 25 minutes.
- When all of the water is gone, remove the bay leaves, and allow meat to brown, turning occasionally. Use a spatula to scrape up browned bits and softened garlic from the bottom of the pot, and toss them with the pork. The garlic will dissolve onto the meat. Remove the meat, and drain on paper towels. Season with black pepper and garnish with lime wedges and remaining parsley.

"STOVE TOP" BBQ (BEEF OR PORK RIBS)
This recipe is from the Paula Deen cooking show on the TV Food Network. Originally shown for beef short ribs only, I have found it works as well with pork ribs. I have increased the amount of sauce ingredients - the original amounts didn't seem to be quite enough to really enjoy!

Steps:
- Put 4 cups hickory wood chips into a container and cover with 4 cups of water. Allow the chips to soak for 30 minutes. Drain and set aside.
- Meanwhile, assemble the dry rub for the ribs. In a small mixing bowl, combine the brown sugar, salt, paprika, cumin, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper and chili powder.
- Cut the rib rack into 4 pieces. Put a cooling rack over a baking sheet and put the ribs on top. Let the ribs come to room temperature, then rub the meat all over with the dry rub.
- Set up a stovetop smoker: Make a shallow bowl out of heavy-duty aluminum foil that fits into a 5- to 7-quart Dutch oven, with the sides of the aluminum bowl coming 2 inches up the sides of the pot; put it in the bottom of the Dutch oven. Put the soaked and drained wood chips over the aluminum foil in an even layer. Put a small round of aluminum foil on top of the wood chips. Put a 6-inch steamer basket (make sure the handle is attached in the center for easy removal) on top of the aluminum round. Transfer the smoker to the stovetop.
- Put the ribs in the steamer basket; it is okay if the pieces overlap slightly. Cover the smoker and create a strong seal by wrapping the rim of the lid with heavy-duty aluminum foil. Turn the heat to medium high and smoke the ribs for 45 minutes. Turn off the heat and carefully remove the aluminum foil seal and lid.
- Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F.
- Remove the ribs and steamer basket from the Dutch oven and set aside. Remove the remaining foil and wood chips carefully, as grease from the ribs may have dripped down; use tongs to lift the wood chips and foil bowl out and transfer them to a baking sheet to cool before discarding. Put the ribs back into the empty Dutch oven and cover with the lid. Slow roast until the ribs are completely tender, an additional 2 hours. The meat should pull away from the bones very easily.
- Meanwhile, pour the ketchup, maple syrup, molasses, vinegar, Worcestershire and soy sauce into a small saucepot and stir to combine. Place over medium heat and heat just until simmering. Keep warm.
- Remove the pot from the oven and brush the ribs generously with the BBQ sauce. Preheat the broiler to high.
- Broil the ribs until the sauce is caramelized and bubbly, about 5 minutes. Serve immediately.

STOVETOP SMOKED BABY BACK RIBS
Growing up in the South gave me a real soft spot for smoked barbecue, especially fall-off-the-bone baby back ribs. Did you know you can recreate smokehouse favorites at home, right on your stovetop? Smoking gives meat a rich flavor, crispy exterior "or bark" and amazing tenderness. Slather all of that in a four-ingredient homemade barbecue sauce and you have a blue-ribbon winner!

Steps:
- Soak 8 ounces (about 4 cups) barbecue wood chips in water to cover for 1 hour. Drain and discard the water.
- Prepare the stovetop smoker: Place a 7-quart black Dutch oven on the stovetop (see Cook's Notes). Cut two pieces of heavy-duty aluminum foil long enough to line the bottom of the pot and still come up the sides with overhang. Lay the pieces one on top of the other in a crisscross pattern (like a plus sign). Place the soaked wood chips on top of the foil and spread in an even layer. Fold one piece of foil overhang over the wood chips. Top with a metal steamer basket.
- For the ribs: Whisk together the salt, paprika, cumin, ground mustard, garlic powder, coriander and allspice in a small bowl. Sprinkle generously all over the ribs. Press the spice rub into the ribs with your hands and transfer them to the steamer basket (it's okay if the ribs overlap slightly). Cover with the lid and fold the excess foil over the lid. You can use more aluminum foil to create a tight seal around the lid as needed to keep the smoke in the pot.
- Cook the ribs in the smoker over medium heat until the meat easily pulls away from the bone, about 1 hour.
- Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F and prepare the slather sauce: Whisk the ketchup, date syrup, mustard and Worcestershire sauce together in a small saucepan and cook over medium heat until warmed through, about 5 minutes.
- Once the ribs are smoked, remove and discard the foil around the seal of the pot. Set the steamer basket of ribs on a sheet pan and carefully lift the warm wood chips out of the pot using the excess foil. Allow them to cool completely on a sheet pan before discarding them.
- Place the steamer basket of ribs back into the pot and cover. Roast until the ribs are fall-off-the-bone tender, about 30 minutes.
- To serve, cut between the bones to separate each rib. Pour the slather sauce on top and serve with coleslaw and cornbread.
Tips:
- Choose the right ribs: Select meaty ribs with good marbling for the best flavor and texture. Beef back ribs or pork spare ribs are popular choices.
- Prepare the ribs: Remove the tough membrane from the back of the ribs for easier eating. You can also trim excess fat if desired.
- Make a flavorful rub: Combine spices, herbs, and seasonings to create a rub that will enhance the ribs' flavor. Common ingredients include brown sugar, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, and cumin.
- Rub the ribs: Apply the rub generously to all sides of the ribs, ensuring they are evenly coated.
- Let the ribs rest: Allow the ribs to rest for at least 30 minutes before cooking, allowing the rub to penetrate the meat and develop flavor.
- Cook the ribs slowly: Cook the ribs over low heat for an extended period, allowing the collagen to break down and tenderize the meat. This can take several hours, depending on the type and thickness of the ribs.
- Baste the ribs: Baste the ribs periodically with a mixture of your favorite BBQ sauce, melted butter, or apple cider vinegar to keep them moist and flavorful.
- Check the internal temperature: Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature of the ribs. Beef ribs should reach an internal temperature of 195°F (90°C), while pork ribs should reach an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).
- Let the ribs rest before serving: Once the ribs are cooked, let them rest for a few minutes before serving, allowing the juices to redistribute.
