MEXICAN BARBECUE COUNTRY STYLE RIBS

Mexican Barbecue Country Style Ribs image

This is a recipe i made up 2 weeks ago. It is medium spicy and my family loved it. We love ribs and sauerkraut so I served sauerkraut on the side. I only use Franks sauerkraut, it has just the right taste. You may not think that the ingredients don't sound good but all the flavors will come together.

Number Of Ingredients 13

Ingredients

4 -8 country-style pork ribs
16 ounces chunky salsa
1/4 cup Mexican chili powder
1 (16 ounce) can diced tomatoes, I used the ones that have spices already in them. (the label says mexican style)
2 green peppers
1 large onion, you may use as many as you like
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
2 cups red table wine (optional)
1/2 cup water
1/2 cup cajun spices
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 (27 ounce) can sauerkraut (optional)
1 cup barbecue sauce

Steps:

Rub the ribs with chili powder and cajun spice.
Place oil in frying pan and brown ribs on all sides.
while browning ribs take casserole dish and line with foil so you can seal ribs in dish with foil.
when ribs are browned place in casserole dish.
pour BBQ sauce over ribs.
pour 1 cup of salsa over ribs.
chop onions and peppers and saute in same pan as ribs.

The meat should fall off when checked with fork.
when done remove meat from dish and use the sauce in dish over meat or potatoes.

Tips:

Use a variety of chiles to add depth of flavor to the marinade. Guajillo and ancho chiles are good choices, but you can also use pasilla or chipotle chiles.
Make sure to marinate the ribs for at least 4 hours, or overnight. This will allow the flavors to penetrate the meat and make it more tender.
If you don't have a grill, you can bake the ribs in the oven at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for about 1 hour, or until the meat is cooked through.
Serve the ribs with your favorite sides, such as rice, beans, or roasted vegetables.

Conclusion:

Mexican country ribs are a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a party or a casual dinner. The ribs are marinated in a flavorful blend of chiles, spices, and herbs, then grilled until tender and slightly charred. Serve with your favorite sides and enjoy!
