Steps:
- To make the jerk marinade: In a medium bowl, combine the onion, soy sauce, oil, vinegar, water, and jalapeño. (To make ahead, refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 3 days.)
- To make the habanero vinegar: In a food processor, com¬bine the habanero chile and vinegar and purée until smooth. Pour into a small bowl. (To make ahead, refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 1 month.)
- To make the pineapple glaze: In a small saucepan, combine the pineapple juice and brown sugar. Bring to a boil over medium heat and cook until sauce is thick and reduced to about one-third, about 15 minutes. (To make ahead, refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 3 days.)
- To make the pineapple salsa: In a medium bowl, combine the pineapple, onion, jalapeños, bell pepper, cilantro, oil, and lime juice. Season with salt. (To make ahead, refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 8 hours.)
- To make the jerk spice rub: In a small bowl, combine the garlic powder, onion powder, allspice, salt, nutmeg, chile powder, cinnamon, cayenne, and black pepper in a small bowl.
- Use a butter knife to pry the membrane off the bone side of the ribs. Once you get a piece of the membrane loose, grab it with a paper towel and pull it toward the other end of the slab to remove it. Rub the Jerk Spice Rub evenly over the ribs. Arrange the ribs in a 15-by-10-in/38-by-25-cm baking pan. Pour the Jerk Marinade over the ribs, turning to coat both sides. Cover baking pan with aluminum foil and refrigerate for at least 6 hours and up to 24 hours.
- Remove ribs from marinade, letting the excess drip off. Transfer the ribs to a baking sheet and allow to come to room temperature, about 30 minutes. Brush with the Habanero Vinegar.
- To cook ribs using a charcoal grill: Prepare grill for indirect cooking over medium heat. Place a shallow metal pan filled with water in the center of the grill and arrange the hot coals around it. Lightly oil the grill grates. Place the ribs on the grate directly above the water-filled pan, cover the grill, and cook until tender, 1 1/2 to 2 hours. Add coals as needed to maintain medium heat.
- To cook ribs using a gas grill: Preheat the grill with all the burners on high. Lightly oil the grill grates. Place the ribs on the grate, turn off the burner directly under the ribs, and reduce the other burners to medium heat. Cover the grill and cook until tender, 1 1/2 to 2 hours.
- After 45 minutes, brush the ribs with some of the Pineapple Glaze, and brush them two or three times before serving. Do not flip the ribs during cooking. When the ribs are done, they will be well browned and the meat will have shrunk back from the ends of the bones. Transfer ribs to a cutting board and let stand 5 minutes before cutting rack into individual ribs. Serve warm with the Pineapple Salsa.
GRILLED COUNTRY STYLE RIBS WITH PINEAPPLE-CHILI SALSA
Steps:
- Marinate ribs in a large plastic zip bag with the italian dressing for at least one hour. Preheat grill to approximately 400. Slice the lower 2 inches off the fresh pineapple, slice off from remaining fruit three 1/2" slices. Core/skin them, then grill for approx. 5 minutes per side. Some charring is ok, but don't burn them. Remove from the grill, dice, and place in a bowl with remaining ingredients. Watch the cilantro, as a little goes a long way! Remove ribs from marinade and remove excess from the meat. Grill at least 5-7 minutes per side until done (use thermometer, as they are usually pretty thick). Arrange on a plate and spoon on liberal amounts of salsa. Side note: Try serving with rice pilaf or country style smashed potatoes (skin on). You may vary the heat and associated flavor from the peppers by experimenting with different varieties.
PINEAPPLE GRILLED BBQ RIBS
This was my 1st attempt at making ribs years ago, and is still my most requested recipe with family and friends. And, it works great with Baby backs, Spares, and St. Louie's (I prefer the St. Louis). And the longer they marinate in the fridge the better. Most importantly, don't fret over exact measurements for this recipe...I eyeball it, and it always comes out great.

Steps:
- wash the rough outside skin of the pineapple and slice off the bottom and leaves. Cut the skin off in 1/2"-3/4" slices. Set the remaining pineapple aside.
- In a large stock pot (15 qt is best), add the pineapple skin slices, 1 cup brown sugar,2 cups BBQ sauce, the orange slices, dash of liquid smoke, and the rib sections.
- Add enough water to the pot to cover the ribs completely, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer ribs for 40 minutes. Don't overcook them.
- Remove ribs from pot and set aside to cool.
- While ribs cool, make a rub from the orange zest, remaining brown sugar, chili powder, garlic powder, and salt and pepper to taste.
- When ribs are cool enough to handle, apply rub to both sides of meat. Place ribs in a plastic freezer bag, and allow to marinate for 3 or 4 hours (or longer if you prefer).
- After marinating time, add 1 cup of BBQ sauce to the bag and coat ribs. Allow them to come to room temperature in the bag.
- In the mean time, slice the remaining pineapple into 1/2" thick rings and brush with BBQ sauce. I occasionally add a tsp of honey to the BBQ sauce for grilling --
- Heat BBQ grill to 300 degrees. Place ribs on grill, and brush with BBQ sauce, turning frequently and basting with sauce, about 20 minutes, being careful not to let sauce burn. Reduce heat if necessary.
- During the last 8 minutes of cooking, add the pineapple slices to the grill, turning once and allowing them to carmelize and brown with grill marks.
- Remove ribs and pineapple to a serving platter and enjoy.
