Apricot and Mustard Glazed Baby Back Ribs image

Provided by Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 2h30m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 tablespoons chili powder
1 tablespoon smoked paprika
2 teaspoons ground cumin
Kosher salt
2 full racks baby back ribs (about 3 pounds each), halved
3 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 small yellow onions, diced (about 2 cups)
Kosher salt
4 large cloves garlic, finely chopped (about 1/4 cup)
2 large red Fresno chiles, finely chopped (about 1/4 cup)
2 cups apple cider vinegar
1 cup yellow mustard
1 cup apricot preserves
1 cup low-sodium chicken stock

Steps:

  • For the rub: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • In a small bowl, mix together the chili powder, paprika, cumin and 1 tablespoon salt.
  • Lay 2 half-racks of ribs flat in a 9-by-13-inch glass baking dish. Repeat with the remaining 2 half-racks. Using your hands, coat each rack with the spice rub. Set aside.
  • For the sauce: Heat the oil in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the onions and 2 teaspoons salt and cook until translucent and lightly browned, 5 to 7 minutes. Add the garlic and chiles and cook for 2 minutes. Add the apple cider vinegar, and cook, scraping the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon, for 3 minutes. Add the mustard and preserves. Stir to combine. Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer and cook to allow the flavors to marry, about 3 minutes. Turn off the heat and carefully pour half the sauce over the ribs. Pour 1/2 cup of the chicken stock into the bottom of each dish. Cover the baking dishes with foil and place into the oven on the middle rack. Bake until the meat is tender, about 1 1/2 hours.
  • Meanwhile, cook the remaining sauce over medium-high heat until reduced by half, about 20 minutes.
  • Heat a grill pan or a gas or charcoal grill over medium-high heat.
  • Using a pastry brush, glaze the baked ribs with the reduced sauce. Place the ribs meat-side down onto the hot grill and cook until slightly charred, 3 to 5 minutes. Turn the ribs over and cook for an additional 5 minutes. Flip one final time, allowing the ribs to cook until perfectly charred, 3 to 5 minutes more. Remove from the grill and rest for 10 minutes before cutting.
  • Serve alongside a bowl of any remaining sauce.

Provided by Trisha Yearwood

Categories     main-dish

Time 2h45m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 tablespoons chili powder
1 teaspoon ground cumin
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 racks baby back ribs (about 4 1/2 pounds total)
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 tablespoon black peppercorns, ground to a medium grind in a spice grinder
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 medium shallot, minced
1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
1/2 cup apricot preserves
1/4 cup honey
1/4 cup ketchup
1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
4 scallions, chopped

Steps:

  • For the ribs: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Stir the chili and cumin together with 1 tablespoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper in a small bowl. Sprinkle the mixture all over the ribs, then put the ribs bone-side down in a large roasting pan and cover tightly with foil. Bake until the meat is very tender but not quite falling off the bone, about 2 1/2 hours.
  • For the sauce: Meanwhile, melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the peppercorns, garlic and shallot and cook, stirring, until the garlic starts to turn golden, about 2 minutes. Add the sugar, preserves, honey, ketchup, vinegar, soy sauce and Worcestershire and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer until syrupy, about 5 minutes.
  • Finish the ribs: Preheat the broiler to high. Remove the foil and transfer the racks to a cutting board to cool slightly. Drain any fat from the roasting pan. Cut the racks into individual ribs and place back in the roasting pan. Drizzle the ribs with the sauce.
  • Broil the ribs a few inches from the broiler, tossing occasionally with tongs, until bubbling and charred in spots, about 6 minutes. Transfer the ribs to a platter and sprinkle with the scallions.
