I can't remember where I found this recipe, but to me this is the best pork rib marinade out there. Honey and pork is a winning combination and these ribs are finger licking good.

Time 1h

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

Ingredients

1 kg pork spareribs
80 ml honey
60 ml soy sauce
45 ml oyster sauce
30 ml soft brown sugar
7 cm piece ginger, grated
3 garlic cloves, crushed
15 ml tomato paste
1 ml salt
1 ml cayenne pepper
1 ml ground cinnamon
5 ml rosemary

Steps:

Arrange the spareribs in a single layer in a nonmetallic dish.
Mix all the ingredients for the marinade together and pour over the spareribs.
If you don't really like ginger that much you may find it a bit over powering and would want to reduce it.
Cover and refrigerate for at least 8 hours or overnight.
Preheat the oven to 190°C and arrange the ribs on the rack of a roasting pan.
Oven roast for 50-60 minutes, basting occasionally with the marinade.
Turn every 10 minutes.
Or just throw them on the BBQ.
Cut the ribs into portions and serve.

EAT-WITH-YOUR-HANDS SPARERIB MARINADE (WITH ONION SALAD IDEA)

Eat-With-Your-Hands Sparerib Marinade (With Onion Salad Idea) image

This is not for knives and forks! Rather put out finger bowls and paper napkins, and do what came naturally for those ancient cave people who discovered grilling. Please do not substitute the apricot jam: it has a flavour uniquely suited to this kind of marinade. Make this the last grill of summer, and I'd suggest your favourite chilled unwooded chardonnay with it! ;)This recipe comes from a highly popular Afrikaans travel magazine called "Weg" -- which more or less means, "Away", as in: "Away we go!"

Time 40m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

Ingredients

1/4 cup red wine vinegar
1/4 cup tomato ketchup (the thick, real-tomato type!)
1 tablespoon coarse grain mustard
1 tablespoon brown sugar
5 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons apricot jam
3 garlic cloves, chopped and bashed a bit
3 tablespoons gingerroot, fresh, cut, chopped and bashed
1 teaspoon dried hot pepper flakes (or to taste)
coarse black pepper, to taste
2 lbs pork spareribs (or use enough for 4 people)

Steps:

Prepare, measure out, and mix all the ingredients for the marinade. Whisk well.
The recipe mentions "2 spareribs" but you'll know how much you need, or whether you want to cut it slightly smaller than 2 pieces, which are quite large.
Pour the marinade over the ribs, and brush it on all over. (Use a glass or other non-reactive container).
Loosely cover and leave for a few hours. Overnight is best.
Grill over hot coals until it threatens to catch. Turn once, and grill for about another 10 minutes while you brush on the marinade every now and then.
Leave the grilled ribs under foil (in a warm spot) for a few minutes, cut up into pieces easily taken in hand (!), and present on a heated plate. Whether you need more salt is a question of personal taste.
Surprisingly, this salad idea goes well with it: thinly sliced red onions which were mixed with a little sugar and a pinch of salt, and sprinkled with lemon juice. Do ahead so sugar can melt. (Just use your own intuition: no recipe exists!).

Tips:

Choose the right ribs: Baby back ribs are the most popular choice for spare rib marinade, but you can also use St. Louis-style ribs or country-style ribs.
Remove the membrane: The membrane on the back of the ribs can be tough and chewy, so it's important to remove it before marinating. You can do this by using a sharp knife to score the membrane and then pulling it off with your fingers.
Use a flavorful marinade: The marinade is what will give your ribs their flavor, so make sure to use one that you like. There are many different marinade recipes available, so you can find one that suits your taste.
Marinate the ribs for at least 4 hours, or overnight: The longer you marinate the ribs, the more flavor they will absorb. If you're short on time, you can marinate the ribs for as little as 30 minutes, but the longer you marinate them, the better.
Cook the ribs over indirect heat: This will help to prevent them from drying out. You can cook the ribs on a grill, in the oven, or in a slow cooker.
Cook the ribs until they are fall-off-the-bone tender: This will usually take about 2-3 hours, but the cooking time will vary depending on the method you are using.

Conclusion:

With these tips, you can make delicious spare ribs that are fall-off-the-bone tender and full of flavor. So next time you're looking for a great meal to serve your family and friends, give spare rib marinade a try. You won't be disappointed!
