Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     main-dish

Time 7h30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 small racks baby back ribs (1 1/2 to 2 pounds each), cut in half
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
3 tablespoons ancho chile powder
2/3 cup teriyaki-style barbecue sauce (such as Sweet Baby Ray's)
1/3 cup apple cider vinegar
1 tablespoon grated peeled fresh ginger
2 cloves garlic, grated
1/4 cup pineapple preserves
2 tablespoons ketchup
2 scallions, thinly sliced on an angle

Steps:

  • Generously season the ribs with salt and pepper, then rub with the vegetable oil and sprinkle with the chile powder, pressing to adhere. Whisk 1/3 cup barbecue sauce, the vinegar, ginger and garlic in a 6- to 8-quart slow cooker. Add the ribs and turn to coat in the sauce. Cover and cook on low until the ribs are tender, 7 hours.
  • Preheat the broiler. Transfer the ribs to a rimmed baking sheet. Remove 1/4 cup of the cooking liquid to a small bowl and whisk in the remaining 1/3 cup barbecue sauce, the pineapple preserves and ketchup.
  • Brush the pineapple sauce all over the ribs to coat completely; arrange bone-side down. Broil until the sauce is sticky and the ribs are lightly charred in spots, 3 to 5 minutes. Top with the scallions.

Provided by vlacer

Number Of Ingredients 16

Ingredients:
Utensil: 9-quart Brasier Pan
Yield: Serves 10
5 pounds pork spareribs (can use beef spareribs) 2270 g
1 1/2 cup packed brown sugar 350mL
5 tablespoons cornstarch 75 mL
1 1/2 teaspoon celery salt 7.5 mL
1 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger 7.5 mL
2 cups crushed pineapple, with juice 480 mL
3/4 cup water 180 mL
3/4 cup chopped onion, cone #3 180 mL
6 tablespoons cider vinegar 90 mL
6 tablespoons soy sauce 90 mL
3 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce 45 mL
4 1/2 teaspoons grated orange peel 22.5 mL
1/2 teaspoon hot pepper sauce 2.5 mL

Steps:

  • Preheat Saladmaster brasier pan on medium, approximately 4 minutes, or when several drops of water sprinkled on the pan skitter and dissipate. Cut ribs into serving size pieces. Place ribs in pan to sear. When meat releases, turn and sear other side. You may need to do all of the meat in two phases because all of the meat may not fit into pan; in which case, place first series of meat onto a plate while searing remaining meat. Meanwhile, in a 3 quart saucepan, combine the brown sugar, cornstarch, celery salt, ginger, pineapple, water onion, vinegar, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, orange peel and hot pepper sauce. Stir mixture over medium heat and bring to a boil. Cook for approximately 2 minutes or until thickened. When ribs are seared on both sides, place all meat into braiser pan and pour ingredients from sauce pan over ribs. Cover pan, turn heat down to simmer and cook for approximately 4 hours. During the 4 hours turn meat approximately 3 times to assure all of the meat is covered with sauce. When meat is easily picked off the bone, it is ready to serve.
