BRAISED PORK RIBS AND ITALIAN SAUSAGE
Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- In a large heavy braising pot, over medium heat cook pancetta until crispy and golden. Remove to a paper-towel lined plate to drain. Add the spareribs to the pancetta fat and brown well on both sides.
- Remove ribs to a baking sheet and bake until tender, about 1 1/2 hours. Add the sausage to the pot and brown both sides. Add the peppers, onion and garlic. Cook until translucent, then deglaze with wine. Simmer for a couple of minutes, then add tomatoes. Bring back to a simmer, and add the cooked pork ribs, parsley, basil, chili flakes and salt and pepper, to taste.
- Simmer on low to medium heat, covered, for another 1 1/2 hours.
- Serve over pasta, and garnish with pancetta, green onions and Parmesan.
ITALIAN COUNTRY STYLE RIBS
This is a recipe that I came up with when I got tired of 'the same old thing'. It's easy and delicious. You can add things like mushrooms or peppers. Serve with white rice or noodles, salad and bread. You can pour the sauce over the rice/noodles.

Steps:
- Line a baking sheet with parchment-lined foil. Stir together oil, 4 teaspoons salt, 1 teaspoon pepper, paprika, fennel seeds, sage, thyme, and rosemary. Rub mixture all over ribs. Cover; let stand at least 1 hour, or refrigerate up to overnight.
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Roast ribs, uncovered, until meat is tender, 2 hours. (Ribs can be allowed to cool completely at this point and stored, covered, in refrigerator up to 3 days.) Switch oven to broil, with a rack 6 inches from heating element. Stir together vinegar and garlic; season with salt and pepper. Brush ribs with half of glaze. Broil until crisp, 1 to 2 minutes. Brush with remaining glaze, if desired. Cut into pieces and serve, alongside potato salad.
TUSCAN-STYLE SLOW ROASTED SPARERIBS WITH BALSAMIC GLAZE
These fantastic ribs are slow roasted in the oven so we can have delicious ribs anytime of the year! The rub is wonderful and the ribs are tender yet have a crisp finish with a balsamic glaze. This is adapted from Bruce Aidells's Complete Book of Pork Cookbook. You may need more of the balsamic vinegar, use your judgement. Cooking time does not include the rub setting time. I think they are much better when you let them set overnight. Hope you enjoy as much as we do!

TUSCAN STYLE BRAISED PORK
This recipe is based upon my recollection of Marlena De Blasi's Tuscan Wild Boar recipe in her book "A Thousand Days in Tuscany." (My copy of that book is currently packed up, so I couldn't consult it.) Also, I made modifications based upon what I had on hand. This is a great dish to serve to a hungry crowd of meat eaters! Please note that prep time does not include time to marinate meat which can vary according to your needs or preferences.

Steps:

Tips:
- Choose the right ribs: Look for spare ribs that are meaty and have a good amount of marbling.
- Remove the membrane: The membrane on the back of the ribs can be tough and chewy. Remove it before cooking to ensure the ribs are tender.
- Season the ribs well: Rub the ribs with a flavorful blend of spices and herbs before cooking. This will help to enhance the flavor of the meat.
- Cook the ribs low and slow: Pork ribs are best cooked low and slow. This will allow the meat to become tender and fall off the bone.
- Use a variety of cooking methods: You can cook pork ribs in the oven, on the grill, or in a smoker. Each method will produce a slightly different flavor and texture.
- Baste the ribs regularly: Basting the ribs with a flavorful liquid will help to keep them moist and prevent them from drying out.
- Let the ribs rest before serving: Once the ribs are cooked, let them rest for a few minutes before serving. This will allow the juices to redistribute and make the meat even more tender.
Conclusion:
Pork spareribs are a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With a little planning and preparation, you can easily make pork spareribs at home that are just as good as anything you would find in a restaurant. So next time you're looking for a hearty and flavorful meal, give pork spareribs a try!
