Categories     main-dish

Time 3h

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

3 pounds pork spareribs
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon chopped fresh rosemary
1 tablespoon packed dark brown sugar
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 cup balsamic vinegar
1 cup ketchup
1/2 cup apple cider vinegar
1/4 cup honey
2 tablespoons whole grain mustard
1 tablespoon molasses
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
1 1/2 teaspoons hot sauce
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt

Steps:

  • For the ribs: Place the ribs in a roasting pan, cutting the racks in half to fit if necessary. Combine the garlic, rosemary, brown sugar, balsamic vinegar, salt and cayenne in a small bowl, and rub the mixture evenly all over the ribs. Allow the ribs to marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour and up to 4 hours.
  • Place a rack in the center of the oven and preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Pour 1/2 cup water into the roasting pan and cover the pan tightly with aluminum foil. Roast the ribs until the meat is very tender and separate easily from the bone, about 1 1/2 hours. While the ribs are roasting make the BBQ sauce.
  • For the sauce: Place the balsamic vinegar in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Bring to a boil then lower the heat to medium and cook the vinegar until it is reduced by a third, about 8 minutes. Whisk in the ketchup, apple cider vinegar, honey, mustard, molasses, Worcestershire, hot sauce and salt. Bring the the sauce back to a boil then lower the heat and simmer until thickened, 15 to 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from the heat and let cool to room temperature.
  • To finish, remove the ribs from the oven and transfer to 2 aluminum-foil-lined baking sheets. Increase the oven temperature to 450 degrees F. Brush both sides of the ribs generously with the BBQ sauce and bake uncovered for 10 minutes, until the sauce is browned and sizzling. Allow the ribs to rest for 10 minutes before slicing.

SWEET AND STICKY BBQ BEEF RIBS

Provided by Nancy Fuller

Categories     main-dish

Time 3h35m

Yield 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

10 beef short ribs (about 5 inches by 2 1/2 inches)
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
3 1/4 cups Nancy's Quick Fix BBQ Sauce, recipe follows
2 cups beef broth
12 cloves garlic, smashed
1 onion, sliced into 1/2-inch rounds
1 bottle stout beer
3 cups chunky medium salsa, such as Pace
1/4 cup packed dark brown sugar
2 tablespoons ground cumin
2 tablespoons sweet paprika

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
  • Season the beef ribs with salt and pepper and place on a large baking sheet. Roast until the ribs start to brown, about 30 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, mix together Nancy's Quick Fix BBQ Sauce, the broth, garlic, onions and beer in a large Dutch oven and bring to a boil. Lower the heat and simmer for about 30 minutes.
  • Transfer the browned ribs to the Dutch oven meat-side down. Lower the oven temperature to 325 degrees F, cover the pot and transfer it to the oven. Braise the ribs until tender and cooked through, 2 to 2 1/2 hours.
  • Prepare a grill for medium heat.
  • Put the ribs on the grill (reserve the sauce in the pot) and grill, turning occasionally, until caramelized, 8 to 10 minutes. Top with the reserved sauce and serve.
  • Put the salsa, sugar, cumin and paprika in a medium saucepan over medium heat and bring to a simmer. Cook until the sugar is dissolved, 8 to 10 minutes.

Tips:

  • Choose the right ribs: Look for meaty ribs with a good amount of marbling.
  • Remove the membrane: This thin membrane on the back of the ribs can make them tough, so be sure to remove it before cooking.
  • Use a flavorful rub: A good rub will help the ribs develop a delicious crust.
  • Cook the ribs low and slow: This will help them become fall-off-the-bone tender.
  • Baste the ribs with sauce: This will help keep them moist and flavorful.
  • Let the ribs rest before serving: This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat.

Conclusion:

Sweet sticky BBQ ribs are a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. Whether you're hosting a party or just want a tasty meal for dinner, these ribs are sure to please everyone. With a little planning and preparation, you can create a delicious rack of ribs that will have your family and friends asking for seconds.
