SINGAPORE SPARE RIBS



Singapore Spare Ribs image

This is out of my Asian cookbook...enjoy! Cooking time doesn't include marinating time...based on KateL's review I posted a photo of my 3 pounds of ribs in my lasagne pan...I also took the pan out of the oven to turn the ribs keeping the oven temperature steady...I did change the cooking time to include another 10 minutes...that's how long it took mine to get nice and caramelized...hope this helps...

Time 1h20m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 teaspoons sesame oil
1 teaspoon fresh ginger, finely chopped
3 garlic cloves, crushed
2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons chinese rice wine
1/2 teaspoon five-spice powder
2 tablespoons honey
1 teaspoon sambal oelek
1/2 teaspoon salt
3 lbs pork spareribs, cut into individual ribs (ask your butcher to do this)

2 lemons, cut into wedges

Steps:

  • In a large glass bowl combine the sesame oil, ginger, garlic, soy sauce, rice wine, five spice powder, honey, sambal oelek and salt. Mix well.

  • Cover and refrigerate overnight or for at least 4 hours so they absorb the flavors of the marinade.
  • Preheat the oven to 350°F.
  • Place the ribs and marinade into an oiled baking dish (line the baking dish with thick foil to make washing up easier) and cook for 50-60 minutes, turning and basting with pan juices every 15 minutes.
  • If the marinade begins to burn, add a few tablespoons of warm water to the pan during cooking.
  • Scatter the chopped green onions over the spare ribs and serve with wedges of lemon and steamed rice.

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.

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!

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.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cut of pork: Spare ribs are the best cut for this recipe, but you can also use baby back ribs or pork chops.
  • Marinate the pork: Marinating the pork for at least 30 minutes helps to tenderize it and infuse it with flavor.
  • Cook the pork slowly: The key to tender, fall-off-the-bone ribs is to cook them slowly over low heat. This can be done in a slow cooker, oven, or instant pot.
  • Baste the pork regularly: Basting the pork with the marinade or a mixture of soy sauce, brown sugar, and water helps to keep it moist and flavorful.
  • Serve the pork with your favorite sides: Singaporean tender pork spare ribs are delicious served with rice, noodles, or vegetables.

Conclusion:

Singaporean tender pork spare ribs are a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. With just a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a meal that your family and friends will love.
