Time 3h15m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 tablespoons vegetable oil
5 pounds lean beef short ribs, cut into 3-inch pieces
1 teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
1 large onion, cut into thick slices and separated into rings
5 carrots, peeled and cut into chunks
4 cloves garlic, coarsely chopped
1 (16 ounce) can tomato sauce
1 cup barbeque sauce
1 cup beef broth

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
  • Heat oil over medium heat in a large, heavy, oven-safe pot or Dutch oven, and brown the ribs on all sides, about 5 minutes, working in batches if necessary. Sprinkle ribs with salt and black pepper as they brown. Transfer cooked ribs to paper towels to blot up extra oil.
  • Stir the onion rings and carrots into the same pot, and cook and stir until the onions turn translucent and start to brown, about 8 minutes. Stir in the garlic, and cook until fragrant, about 1 more minute. Mix in tomato sauce, barbeque sauce, and beef broth; bring the sauce to a boil, and simmer for 1 minute to blend flavors. Stir in the browned ribs.
  • Cover the pot, and bake in the preheated oven until the rib meat is very tender, about 2 1/2 hours. Turn the ribs occasionally while cooking. Season to taste with salt and black pepper before serving hot.

Categories     Sauce     Beef     Side     Marinate

Yield serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 slabs beef back ribs
Dry Rib
1 1/2 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 1/2 tablespoons brown sugar
1 1/2 tablespoons kosher salt
1 1/2 tablespoons paprika
3/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
Soy Marinade (page 237)
Braising Liquid
1 cup beef broth
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce

Steps:

  • Remove the membrane from the back of the ribs. In a small bowl, add the dry rub ingredients, mix well, and set aside. Put the soy marinade in a resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish. Marinate the beef back ribs for 45 minutes in the soy marinade.
  • Build a fire (wood or a combination of charcoal and wood) for indirect cooking by situating the coals on only one side of the grill, leaving the other side void. Remove the ribs from the marinade, pat dry, and apply an even coat of the dry rub to all sides. Place the beef ribs on the cooker (bone side down) away from the coals, close the lid, and cook with indirect heat (approximately 250°F) for 2 hours.
  • Remove the ribs from the grill and place them in the center of a doubled sheet of aluminum foil, meat side facing down. In a small bowl, combine the beef broth and Worcestershire to make the braising liquid. Pour the braising liquid over the ribs and wrap tightly in the foil to trap the juices inside. Return the foil pack to the grill, close the lid, and cook for 2 hours and 15 minutes, or until tender.
  • Let the beef rest in the foil for 15 minutes before serving.

VIETNAMESE BRAISED PORK RIBS



Vietnamese Braised Pork Ribs image

Not all ribs are baked or grilled. These are oven braised with a Vietnamese spice mixture, which makes them succulent and juicy, and very tender. You can braise them a day ahead and keep them refrigerated in their juices; they reheat beautifully.

Categories     dinner, main course

Time 2h

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 medium shallots, finely chopped
2 lemongrass stalks, tough outer layer removed, lightly smashed and very finely chopped (about 2 tablespoons)
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon fish sauce (such as Red Boat)
1 tablespoon hot chile paste (such as sambal oelek)
2 teaspoons kosher salt
2 tablespoons brown sugar
2 teaspoons Chinese five-spice powder
1 tablespoon grated garlic
2 tablespoons finely chopped or grated ginger
3 to 4 pounds baby back ribs
4 scallions, slivered or chopped, for garnish
Cilantro and mint sprigs, for garnish

Steps:

  • Make the marinade: In a small bowl, put the shallots, lemongrass, soy sauce, fish sauce, chile paste, salt, sugar, five-spice powder, garlic and ginger. Mix well.
  • Put the meat in a deep baking dish or roasting pan and add marinade. Using your hands, coat ribs well. Let marinate, refrigerated, for at least 2 hours and preferably overnight, well wrapped. Bring back to room temperature before proceeding.
  • Heat oven to 450 degrees. Add 2 cups water to the pan, cover tightly with foil and place pan in oven. Cook for 30 minutes, then reduce heat to 350 degrees for 1 hour more. When done, the meat should be very tender, nearly but not quite falling off the bone. Remove cover and return to the oven for about 15 minutes until the ribs are nicely browned.
  • Remove ribs from pan. Pour pan juices into a saucepan and skim fat. Reduce over high heat until somewhat thickened, about 5 minutes. Meanwhile, divide ribs with a sharp knife and pile them onto a platter.
  • Serve family style with steamed rice and pan juices. Garnish with scallions, cilantro and mint sprigs.

Tips:

  • Choose the right ribs. Look for ribs that are meaty and have a good amount of marbling. Avoid ribs that are too thin or have a lot of bone.
  • Prepare the ribs properly. Remove the membrane from the back of the ribs and trim any excess fat.
  • Use a good rub. A good rub will help to flavor the ribs and create a nice crust.
  • Cook the ribs low and slow. This will help to tenderize the meat and make the ribs fall-off-the-bone tender.
  • Baste the ribs regularly. Basting the ribs will help to keep them moist and prevent them from drying out.
  • Let the ribs rest before serving. This will help the ribs to reabsorb some of the juices and make them even more tender.

Conclusion:

Braised BBQ spareribs are a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. By following the tips in this article, you can make sure that your ribs turn out perfect every time. So fire up your grill or smoker and get cooking!
