Categories     main-dish

Time 6h30m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 cups soy sauce
1/2 cup light brown sugar, packed
1 tablespoon dark molasses
1 teaspoon salt
5 pounds meaty pork ribs
One 14-ounce bottle ketchup
One 12-ounce bottle chili sauce
1/2 cup light brown sugar, packed
1 teaspoon dry mustard

Steps:

  • For the ribs: In a medium saucepan, combine the soy sauce, brown sugar, molasses, salt and 1 cup water. Bring to a boil and set aside to cool to room temperature.
  • Put the ribs in a large, turkey-sized baking bag or sealable plastic bag. Support the bag in a 12-by-14-inch baking pan. Pour the marinade over the ribs and seal the bag. Marinate the ribs in the refrigerator for a few hours, turning the bag occasionally to thoroughly coat the meat.
  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Drain and discard the marinade. Cut four slits in the top of the baking bag, if you are using one. Otherwise, remove the ribs, transfer them to the baking pan, and cover the pan with foil or a lid. Bake for 2 hours.
  • For the barbecue sauce: While the ribs are baking, blend the ketchup, chili sauce, brown sugar, dry mustard and 1/3 cup water in a large saucepan. Bring the mixture to a boil, stirring to dissolve the sugar, then remove from the heat.
  • When the ribs are cooked and tender, remove them from the baking bag. Lower the oven temperature to 350 degrees F.
  • Brush the ribs on both sides with the barbecue sauce and return them to the oven to bake, uncovered, for 30 minutes longer. Just before serving, throw the ribs under the broiler to give them a bit of a char.

Tips:

  • Choose the right ribs: Look for meaty, well-marbled ribs with a good amount of fat. 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 off any excess fat. Cut the ribs into individual portions if desired.
  • Make the maple barbecue sauce ahead of time: This will allow the flavors to meld and develop. You can store the sauce in the refrigerator for up to a week.
  • Cook the ribs low and slow: This will help them become tender and fall off the bone. You can cook the ribs in the oven, on the grill, or in a smoker.
  • Baste the ribs regularly: This will help keep them moist and prevent them from drying out. Use a brush to apply the sauce to the ribs every 30 minutes or so.
  • Let the ribs rest before serving: This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat. Let the ribs rest for at least 10 minutes before cutting and serving.
