NIF'S NO FAIL PORK RIBS



Nif's No Fail Pork Ribs image

This recipe is for my neighbour. She used to spend so much time making the perfect ribs. Not too dry, not burning on the BBQ, cooked just right. I mentioned my rib recipe to her, she tried it and has never gone back! The nutritional value listed here is not right for this recipe because the cooking method removes so much fat. I suggested the BBQ sauce that I like, but I find sauces vary so much, I thought that it was best to pick your favourite. I also included the longest option for the cooking time. Here you go Judy - Enjoy!

Time 6h10m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

4 lbs pork ribs (baby back, loin, or back ribs are best)
4 bay leaves
12 peppercorns
2 tablespoons sea salt
cold water
2 cups barbecue sauce, your favourite kind (I suggest Best Barbecue Sauce)

Steps:

  • Place ribs in a large stock pot. Fill pot with cold water until at least 2 inches above ribs. Add bay leaves, peppercorns and sea salt; bring to a boil. Once boiling, skim scum off the top of the water. Simmer ribs, while skimming occasionally, for 1 to 2 hours.
  • Set oven to 250°F.
  • Remove ribs from water and place in large baking dish. Pour your favourite BBQ sauce over ribs and cover tightlly with foil. Cook for about 4 hours, turning the ribs over every hour or so.
  • Remove foil and let cool for 10 minutes, until you can handle them. Cut into 2 to 4 ribs per section and place on a platter. Enjoy your tender, fall off the bone ribs!

Time 1h35m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 tablespoon ground cumin
1 tablespoon chili powder
1 tablespoon paprika
salt and pepper to taste
3 pounds baby back pork ribs
1 cup barbeque sauce

Steps:

  • Preheat a gas grill for high heat, or arrange charcoal briquettes on one side of the barbeque. Lightly oil the grate.
  • In a small jar, combine cumin, chili powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Close the lid, and shake to mix.
  • Trim the membrane sheath from the back of each rack. Run a small, sharp knife between the membrane and each rib, and snip off the membrane as much as possible. Sprinkle as much of the rub onto both sides of the ribs as desired. To prevent the ribs from becoming too dark and spicy, do not thoroughly rub the spices into the ribs. Store the unused portion of the spice mix for future use.
  • Place aluminum foil on lower rack to capture drippings and prevent flare-ups. Lay the ribs on the top rack of the grill (away from the coals, if you're using briquettes). Reduce gas heat to low, close lid, and leave undisturbed for 1 hour. Do not lift the lid at all.
  • Brush ribs with barbecue sauce, and grill an additional 5 minutes. Serve ribs as whole rack, or cut between each rib bone and pile individually on a platter.

NIF'S LAST MINUTE RIBS OR PORK RIBLETS



Nif's Last Minute Ribs or Pork Riblets image

I went to a surprise party tonight. I decided at the last minute to make ribs and they went over really well with everyone! These were very tender and had lots of flavour. The best part? They are incredibly easy to make and are the quickest ribs I have ever made. You can also use regular sized ribs - these were good for an appetizer at the party. Enjoy!

Categories     Pork

Time 1h15m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 lbs pork riblets, racks (pork ribs cut in half)
water
4 garlic cloves, peeled, whole
1 tablespoon peppercorn
1 tablespoon sea salt
3 bay leaves
favourite dry seasoning (I used Nif's Basic Dry BBQ Rub)
freshly ground salt and pepper

Steps:

  • In a large pot, bring enough water to cover the ribs to a gentle boil. Add salt, pepper, whole garlic cloves and bay leaves to the water. Meanwhile remove the silver skin from the back of the racks and cut rib racks in half. Add ribs to water. Boil for 30 minutes and strain.
  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • Cut rib racks into individual ribs and place in a baking pan lined with tin foil, for easier clean up. Sprinkle ribs with seasoning and toss. ***If you are using a salty seasoning, be careful not to use too much and don't use salt at the end. Cover with foil. Bake for 30 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, place a wire rack on a cookie sheet. I lined the sheet with tin foil as well. Place ribs on the rack.
  • Broil ribs until they are medium brown. In my oven, they are done after 4 minutes under a high broil setting. If you have time, you can turn them over and broil the other side. Sprinkle with freshly ground sea salt and pepper to taste. Do not add the salt if your seasoning is salty.
  • Make sure you taste them! I added more of my dry rub seasoning at this point because they needed a bit more flavour.

Tips:

  • Choose the right ribs: Look for ribs that are meaty and have good marbling. Avoid ribs that are too thin or have a lot of bone.
  • Trim the ribs: Remove any excess fat or silver skin from the ribs. This will help the ribs cook evenly and prevent them from becoming tough.
  • Season the ribs: Season the ribs liberally with your favorite rub or spices. This will help to enhance the flavor of the ribs.
  • Cook the ribs slowly: Ribs need to be cooked slowly and at a low temperature in order to become tender and fall off the bone. Cook the ribs for at least 2 hours, or until they reach an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Baste the ribs: Baste the ribs with your favorite sauce or marinade every 30 minutes or so. This will help to keep the ribs moist and prevent them from drying out.
  • Let the ribs rest: Once the ribs are cooked, let them rest for at least 10 minutes before serving. This will help the juices to redistribute throughout the ribs, making them even more tender and flavorful.

Conclusion:

No-fail pork ribs are a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion.
