COUNTRY PORK RIBS IN TOMATO GRAVY RECIPE



Country Pork Ribs in Tomato Gravy Recipe image

Perfect cold weather dinner. Braised country ribs in a non-Italian tasting tomato, onion, garlic gravy. Most of the garlic and onion melt into the gravy. Wonderful flavor with few ingredients. No spaghetti sauce taste but the "gravy" would be a great, different not-sweet spaghetti sauce. I suppose you could use Italian herbs, but don't! Try it this way first. Make a big batch because this freezes well and the frozen leftovers were delicious. I believe I found this at about.com.

Time 2h20m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 -4 lbs country-style pork ribs, cut into 3- to 4-inch lengths
kosher salt
fresh ground pepper
2 teaspoons olive oil, divided use
3 medium sweet onions, sliced into 1/2-inch thick rings
1 head about 12 garlic clove, peeled and cut in half
1 (28 ounce) can crushed peeled tomatoes
1 (14 1/2 ounce) can diced tomatoes
2 cups water
1 lb pasta, of choice cooked al dente
chopped parsley (to garnish)

Steps:

  • Heat a large, heavy Dutch oven over medium high heat. When hot, add teaspoon of olive oil and swirl to coat the bottom of the pan. Sear the pork ribs on both sides until golden brown, turning only once. You may need to do this in batches. Do not crowd the pan. Remove to a platter.
  • Add the remaining 1 teaspoon of olive oil to the Dutch oven, along with the sweet onion rings. Toss to coat. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and sweat the onions, stirring often, until soft and translucent, about 5 minutes.
  • Add the garlic, both cans of tomatoes, and water to the onions. Stir to combine, then return the pork ribs to the pot along with any collected juices.
  • Simmer the pork ribs in the tomato gravy 1-1/2 to 2 hours, until pork is tender. Taste and add additional salt and pepper if warranted.
  • Stir 1 cup of the tomato gravy into the cooked pasta as soon as it is done. Portion the pasta into shallow bowls, top with pork ribs, spoon on some tomato gravy, and garnish with chopped parsley. Serve immediately.

Provided by Trisha Yearwood

Categories     main-dish

Time 2h

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 1/2 pounds small pork ribs, such as baby back ribs
One 7-ounce jar julienned sun-dried tomatoes in oil
5 cloves garlic, 3 whole and 2 minced
2 sprigs fresh rosemary
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 shallot, minced
1/4 cup tomato paste
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup apple cider vinegar

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with 2 layers of foil.
  • If your ribs are in a rack, cut them into separate ribs. Drain the sundried tomatoes, reserving the oil. Toss the ribs with the reserved oil, whole garlic cloves, rosemary, 1 1/4 teaspoons salt and a generous amount of pepper. Place the ribs on the prepared baking sheet and cover the baking sheet with foil. Bake until very tender, about 1 1/2 hours.
  • Meanwhile, finely chop the sun-dried tomatoes. Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the tomatoes, minced garlic, shallot and 1/2 teaspoon salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 7 minutes. Add the tomato paste and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Add the sugar, vinegar and 1 cup water. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat and simmer until slightly thickened, about 10 minutes. Transfer about half of the mixture to a mini chop or food processor and pulse until smooth; return the puree to the saucepan with the rest of the tomato glaze.
  • When the ribs are tender, remove from the oven and increase the temperature to 500 degrees F. Uncover the ribs and remove the rosemary. Mash the roasted garlic cloves into the tomato glaze, discarding anything too tough to mash. Spoon half of the tomato glaze over the ribs. Bake until charred in spots, about 8 minutes. Turn the ribs over and add the rest of the tomato glaze. Bake until charred in spots, about 3 minutes more. Transfer the ribs to a platter and spoon any tomato glaze from the pan over top.

OVEN BAKED COUNTRY RIBS WITH GRAVY



Oven Baked Country Ribs With Gravy image

This is a very economical recipe that I came up with out of sheer boredom. Country ribs are always on sale and because of that, I buy them often, but we got tired of BBQ ribs fast! I used very lean, boneless ribs and they came out flavorful and fork tender. I made the entire recipe in my cast iron skillet, but you can also bake it in a casserole dish. As always, this is a base recipe. Feel free to adapt to your family's tastes.
