Categories     Meat and Poultry Recipes     Pork     Pork Rib Recipes     Spare Ribs

Time 8h55m

Yield 16

Number Of Ingredients 19

¼ cup kosher salt
¼ cup packed brown sugar
¼ cup paprika
3 tablespoons ground black pepper
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon onion powder
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
½ teaspoon celery seed
16 pounds pork spareribs
1 apple, quartered
1 orange, cut into wedges
1 lemon, cut into wedges
1 lime, cut into wedges
1 onion, cut into wedges
3 cups red wine
3 cups water
¼ cup soy sauce
¼ cup lime juice
½ cup ketchup

Steps:

  • Combine the salt, brown sugar, paprika, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne pepper, and celery seed in a bowl; set aside. Remove all heavy fat from the ribs, then remove and discard the membrane covering the rib side. Cut the slabs into 3 to 4 bone portions, cutting evenly between the ribs to leave some meat on each portion.
  • Rub the spice mixture into the rib portions front and back until all of the spice mixture has been used. Place the ribs into a resealable plastic bag, and refrigerate 4 hours to overnight. Letting the ribs sit overnight will give them the best flavor.
  • When ready to cook, fill the water pan of your smoker with the apple, orange, lemon, lime, onion, red wine, and water. If you do not have a water pan, place the ingredients into a metal bowl, and set the bowl on the drip tray, above the heat source. Smoke with the wood chips of your choice at 250 to 300 degrees F (120 to 150 degrees C) until the ribs are no longer pink, and the meat easily pulls from the bone, 4 to 6 hours or more depending on the smoker and temperature. Change the wood chips according to manufacturer's directions.
  • Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-low heat, and lightly oil grate. Stir together the soy sauce, lime juice, and ketchup in a bowl to make the barbeque sauce; set aside.
  • After the ribs are fully cooked, remove them from the smoker, and brush them with the barbeque sauce. Cook on the preheated grill, brushing occasionally with the sauce, until the sauce has become sticky and infused into the ribs, 15 to 20 minutes.

PORK SPARERIBS

Provided by Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 5h30m

Yield 2 to 3 servings

Number Of Ingredients 25

One 3 1/2-pound rack St. Louis pork spareribs
Sawdust Rub, recipe follows
Apple juice in a spray bottle, for spritzing meat
Original BBQ Sauce, recipe follows
1 cup kosher salt
3/4 cup coarse black pepper
2/3 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup paprika
1/4 cup chili powder
1/4 cup granulated garlic
1/4 cup granulated onion
2 tablespoons cayenne pepper
6 cups ketchup
1 cup apple cider vinegar
1 cup Worcestershire sauce
3/4 cup molasses
1/2 cup brown sugar
2 tablespoons hot sauce, such as Louisiana
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1/2 cup chili powder
2 tablespoons granulated garlic
2 tablespoons onion powder
2 tablespoons kosher salt
2 tablespoons black pepper
1 tablespoon cayenne pepper

Steps:

  • Prepare a smoker for cooking between 250 and 275 degrees F. Trim the excess fat from the spareribs and cut out any sharp or cracked bones. Remove or score any silver skin.
  • Liberally rub the ribs with Sawdust Rub, shaking off the excess. Place the ribs in the smoker and cook, spritzing with apple juice every 30 minutes, until the fat starts to render from the surface of the ribs, about 3 hours.
  • Spritz a piece of heavy-duty foil with some apple juice and drizzle with about 3 tablespoons Original BBQ Sauce. Arrange the ribs on the foil, meaty-side down, and fold the foil on the ribs so that steam can escape but the juices are trapped inside. (If you multiply this recipe to do multiple racks, make sure each rack gets its own foil packet.) Put back in the smoker meaty-side down. Smoke until the meat pulls back from the bones by about 3/8 inch, another 1 to 1 1/2 hours. Let rest for 30 minutes, then slice into ribs.
  • Mix together the salt, pepper, brown sugar, paprika, chili powder, granulated garlic, granulated onion and cayenne in a bowl and break up any clumps by hand.
  • Combine the ketchup, vinegar, Worcestershire, molasses, brown sugar, hot sauce and lemon juice together in a large pot and whisk until blended. Place over medium heat and bring to a simmer, then add the chili powder, granulated garlic, onion powder, salt, pepper and cayenne. Continue to simmer 30 to 45 minutes, stirring occasionally to keep from burning.

EASY FALL OFF THE BONE OVEN-BAKED RIBS



Easy Fall Off the Bone Oven-Baked Ribs image

Low and slow cooking make these oven-baked ribs fall off the bone tender. Once baked, we like to add our sweet and spicy barbecue sauce to the ribs, but use whatever you love. For the most tender ribs, we remove the thin membrane covering the back of the rack. Depending on where you have purchased ribs, this may already be done for you. If not, instructions are in the notes section below. FAQ: We call for baby back ribs in the recipe, but other types of ribs (spareribs, country-style, St. Louis-style) will work with this recipe. Cook time should be similar, we recommend that you check on the ribs while they cook to see how they are progressing. FAQ: Doubling or tripling the recipe below should not change the recipe method or bake time. You might need to use two pans for baking.

Time 3h15m

Yield Makes 4 Servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 to 2 1/2 pounds baby back pork ribs
Salt and black pepper
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/4 cup finely diced onion
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 cup ketchup, try our homemade ketchup recipe
1 tablespoon hot chili sauce (suggestion Sriracha)
2 tablespoons light brown sugar
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
Salt and ground pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 275° Fahrenheit (135C).
  • If the ribs still have the thin membrane covering the back of the rack, remove it. See how in the notes section below.
  • Season both sides of the ribs with a generous amount of salt and pepper. If you are using a spice rub, add season the ribs with it now. Place the ribs, meat-side up, into a large roasting pan or rimmed baking sheet. (It may be necessary to cut the ribs in half for them to fit into the pan).
  • Cover the pan or baking sheet tightly with aluminum foil, and then bake until the meat falls easily from the bones, 2 ½ to 3 ½ hours. We like to check the ribs after 2 hours to see how they are progressing. The ribs are done when the meat is cooked through and tender.
  • While the ribs bake, make the barbecue sauce. Heat the olive oil in a saucepan over medium heat.
  • Add the onions and cook until soft and translucent, 5 to 8 minutes. Stir in the cumin and cook for an additional 30 seconds.
  • Add the ketchup, hot chili sauce, brown sugar, and apple cider vinegar. Stir to combine, season with salt then cook for 2 minutes. Set aside in preparation for the ribs to finish roasting.
  • Remove the ribs from the oven, discard the aluminum foil and generously brush both sides with barbecue sauce.
  • Optional: Move an oven rack near the top of the oven. Turn broiler to high and broil the ribs for 3-4 minutes, just until the barbecue sauce begins to caramelize. (Keep a close eye on the ribs while they broil so the sauce does not burn.)
  • Store baked ribs, in an airtight container, in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Freeze, wrapped in foil or freezer paper and in an airtight container, for up to 3 months. Thaw in the refrigerator, and then reheat.
  • To reheat the ribs, wrap in foil or parchment paper and place into a 300°F oven until warmed through, about 30 minutes. If you have some leftover, slather some extra sauce that's been warmed over the ribs before serving.

MOM'S STOVETOP PORK RIBS



Mom's Stovetop Pork Ribs image

This is how my Brazilian mom prepares pork ribs. Boiling the ribs with the seasonings ensures that the meat will remain moist and juicy, and that the flavors will fully penetrate the meat. I hope you like these as much as I always have! Serve with lime wedges, rice and a fresh green salad.

Categories     World Cuisine Recipes     Latin American     South American     Brazilian

Time 1h

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 10

10 pork spareribs
½ cup soy sauce
10 cloves garlic, crushed
1 tablespoon dried rosemary
1 tablespoon dried oregano
2 bay leaves
1 lime, juiced
10 sprigs fresh parsley
ground black pepper to taste
2 limes, cut into wedges

Steps:

  • Place the spareribs into a large pot, and fill with just enough water to cover. Add the soy sauce, garlic, rosemary, oregano, bay leaves, lime juice and 3/4 of the parsley. Bring to a boil, then simmer uncovered over medium heat until the water has completely evaporated, about 25 minutes.
  • When all of the water is gone, remove the bay leaves, and allow meat to brown, turning occasionally. Use a spatula to scrape up browned bits and softened garlic from the bottom of the pot, and toss them with the pork. The garlic will dissolve onto the meat. Remove the meat, and drain on paper towels. Season with black pepper and garnish with lime wedges and remaining parsley.

TENDER PORK SPARE RIBS



Tender Pork Spare Ribs image

I saw a Celebrity Chef use this braising method for baby back ribs, so I decided to give it a try for pork spare ribs. I changed the seasonings and increased the cooking time and I have been very pleased with them every time. They're really tender and the meat is so flavorful that you don't have to add BBQ sauce unless you want to. My neighbor is the one who told me about the fajita seasoning, and she was right on!

Categories     Meat and Poultry Recipes     Pork     Pork Rib Recipes     Spare Ribs

Time 16h20m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 cup brown sugar
½ cup fajita seasoning (such as Fiesta®)
2 tablespoons Hungarian sweet paprika
2 racks pork spareribs, fat trimmed
1 cup beer
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon honey
3 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon prepared brown mustard

Steps:

  • Mix the brown sugar, fajita seasoning, and paprika in a bowl. Rub both sides of the pork spareribs with the brown sugar mixture. Place the spareribs in a 9x13-inch baking pan; cover and refrigerate overnight.
  • Preheat an oven to 250 degrees F (120 degrees C). Whisk together the beer, garlic, honey, Worcestershire sauce, and mustard in a bowl. Set aside.
  • Tear off 2 large sheets of heavy duty aluminum foil and lay them shiny-side down. Place a rack of spareribs on each sheet, meaty-side up. Tear off 2 more sheets of foil and place them on top of the ribs, shiny-side up. Begin tightly folding the edges of the foil together to create a sealed packet. Just before sealing completely, divide the beer mixture evenly into each packet. Complete the seal. Place the packets side-by-side on an 11x14-inch baking sheet.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until the ribs are very tender, 3 hours and 30 minutes to 4 hours. Carefully open each packet, and drain the drippings into a saucepan. You may only need the drippings from one packet. Set ribs aside. Simmer the drippings over medium-high heat until the sauce begins to thicken, about 5 minutes. Brush the thickened sauce over the ribs.
  • Preheat the oven's broiler and set the oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source.
  • Place the ribs back into the oven and broil until the sauce is lightly caramelized, 5 to 7 minutes.
