GREEK STYLE BABY BACK RIBS



GREEK STYLE BABY BACK RIBS image

Categories     Pork     Dinner

Yield 4 people

Number Of Ingredients 10

Baby back ribs - 2 racks
Fresh thyme - approx ¼ cup (or more)
Fresh rosemary - approx ¼ cup (or more)
Fresh oregano - approx ¼ cup (or more)
Garlic - 4 cloves
Salt - 1 teaspoon
White or Black Pepper - ½ teaspoon
Olive Oil - approx ¼ cup
White wine vinegar - approx ½ cup
Lemon

Steps:

  • Finely mince all the fresh herbs and the garlic. (I use a mini-food processor which turns it all into a sort of poultice together.) Mix in the salt, pepper, olive oil and half the white wine vinegar. Use a spoon to spread the herb mix on both sides of the ribs. Lay the ribs meat side down on the aluminum and fold the sides of the foil up to let the ribs brine inside. Pour the remaining vinegar (or more) into the aluminum container and cover the ribs loosely. Allow the ribs to brine for a few hours or overnight in the refrigerator. Cooking is a two-step process of slow, low-heat. Keep the ribs in their aluminum and lay them on a large baking tray that will catch any vinegar that spills out. Bake them for 2 hours at 200 degrees. Then remove the ribs from the aluminum foil and transfer them to the grill, also at 200 degrees. Turn the ribs every 15 minutes for 1 hour, and raise the temperature to 250-275 for the last 20 minutes to get a good crust. Squeeze fresh lemon juice on ribs before serving.

GREEK RIBS

Categories     Marinade     Pork     Quick & Easy

Yield 4 people

Number Of Ingredients 7

Country style ribs (pork)(6)or pork back ribs with skin removed (2lbs).
1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
1 tsp. Seasoning Salt
2 cloves of garlic
4 tbs of oregano
3 tbs Oyster Sauce
1 fresh lemon.

Steps:

  • Place the prepared meat in a large plastic container, liberally cover with EVOO, Seasoning Salt, minced garlic, and oregano. Let marinate overnight. Let Grill heat up to approximately 350 f. Place marinated meat on heated grill. After the midway through cooking time (6 minutes)and the ribs have been flipped; brush with Oyster Sauce on exposed cooked side. Near the end of cooking period (10-12 minutes usually) quickly flip back over so the other side of ribs can be covered with oyster sauce. Once the ribs have been removed from the heat and placed on serving plate squeeze with fresh lemon and serve.

Tips:

  • To achieve fall-off-the-bone ribs, cook them low and slow. The ideal internal temperature for pork ribs is 195°F (90°C).
  • Use a flavorful marinade or rub to infuse the ribs with taste. Greek-inspired marinades often include olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, oregano, and thyme.
  • Enhance the smokiness of the ribs by using a smoker or grilling them over indirect heat.
  • Baste the ribs with the marinade or a sauce during cooking to keep them moist and prevent them from drying out.
  • Let the ribs rest for a few minutes before serving to allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat.
