Spicy Pork Ribs image

These are the best ribs ever. The trick is to buy belly of pork and cook it fairly slowly. The spices and juices cook out to a great thick sauce, which should be brushed over the ribs as they cook.

1 cup soy sauce
1 cup sake, optional
1 teaspoon ground dried chile flakes
4 tablespoons honey
2 tablespoons minced fresh ginger
2 tablespoons minced fresh garlic
6 tablespoons sesame oil
2 sides (about 3 pounds) baby pork ribs

SPICY TAMARIND PORK RIBS WITH SCALLIONS AND PEANUTS



Spicy Tamarind Pork Ribs With Scallions and Peanuts image

This recipe balances richness with a tart sweetness, and features a two-part approach to cooking the meat that yields complex flavor. Pork spare ribs are marinated, covered and baked until just tender. They're then brushed with a glaze made with an invigorating combination of tamarind, ginger, nutmeg and scotch bonnet chile. You can finish the ribs in a hot oven or on the grill; the glaze caramelizes nicely either way. They are delightful as a finger food or as a main dish with practically any accompaniment, like this cool cucumber salad.

Categories     dinner, finger foods, meat, main course

Time 4h

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 racks baby back or spare ribs (about 2 1/2 pounds each)
1 cup dark brown sugar
2 teaspoons garlic powder
1 teaspoon ground cayenne
1 teaspoon black pepper
1 tablespoon kosher salt, plus more to taste
1/2 cup store-bought tamarind concentrate or purée
1 scotch bonnet chile, stemmed and chopped, or 2 tablespoons sambal oelek or other chile paste
2 tablespoons honey
2 tablespoons grated ginger
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 tablespoon lime zest (from about 2 limes)
1/2 cup thinly sliced scallions
1/4 cup peanuts, crushed (optional)

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 300 degrees. Spread the ribs out on a cutting board and pat dry with paper towels.
  • In a small bowl, combine 1/2 cup brown sugar with the garlic powder, cayenne, pepper and 1 tablespoon salt. Rub both sides of each rack with the brown sugar mix. Wrap each rack in a double layer of foil and crimp along the edges to seal. Place on a baking sheet and cook until the meat is tender but not falling off the bone, about 2 to 2 1/2 hours. Allow to cool before unwrapping, being careful of rising steam. Remove the ribs from the foil packets and cut each rack into 4- to 6-rib portions.
  • While the ribs bake, add the remaining 1/2 cup brown sugar with the tamarind concentrate, chile or chile paste, honey, ginger and nutmeg to a small saucepan over medium-low heat. Stir to combine, bring to a slight simmer and cook until sauce is slightly reduced and thickened, about 8 minutes. Remove from heat, add the lime zest, season to taste with salt and allow to cool completely.
  • Finish the ribs on the grill (or proceed to Step 5 to finish the ribs in the oven): Heat a gas or charcoal grill to medium. Brush the ribs on both sides with a thin coat of the glaze. Place the ribs on the grill, turning often, until the glaze is sticky and charred in spots, 5 to 7 minutes.
  • Finish the ribs in the oven: Line a baking sheet with foil and arrange the ribs, meat-side up. Brush the tops with glaze and broil until glaze is set and caramelized in spots, 3 to 5 minutes.
  • Brush again with the glaze and transfer the ribs to a board. Slice into individual ribs. Transfer ribs to a platter and top with scallions and crushed peanuts.

I am right-handed so I go to the right. Slip knife under skin and try to separate a little from the bone. Have some paper towels to grasp piece of skin that you lifted. Grasp the skin and Peel skin with a tight grip. Peel all the skin off the back.

SPICY GLAZED PORK RIBS RECIPE - (4.4/5)



Spicy Glazed Pork Ribs Recipe - (4.4/5) image

Provided by á-48383

Number Of Ingredients 7

1/2 cup gochujang (Korean hot pepper paste)
2 tablespoons dark brown sugar
2 tablespoons reduced-sodium soy sauce
2 tablespoons unseasoned rice vinegar
2 teaspoons toasted sesame oil
Kosher salt
3 pounds baby back pork ribs, separated into individual ribs

Steps:

  • Whisk gochujang, brown sugar, soy sauce, vinegar, and oil in a small bowl until smooth; season with salt. Toss ribs and half of marinade in a 13x9" baking dish; set aside remaining marinade. Cover ribs with foil and chill at least 4 hours. Preheat oven to 350°. Bake ribs, covered, until meat is tender, about 1 hour. Uncover and increase oven temperature to 450°. Roast, turning occasionally and brushing with reserved marinade during last 5 minutes, until ribs are deeply browned, glazed, and fork-tender, 40-45 minutes longer. Do Ahead: Ribs can be marinated 1 day ahead. Keep chilled.

Tips:

  • Choose the right ribs: Baby back ribs are the most popular choice for spicy pork ribs, as they are meaty and have a good amount of fat. You can also use spare ribs, but they will take longer to cook.
  • Prepare the ribs: Remove the membrane from the back of the ribs. This will help the ribs cook evenly.
  • Make the rub: Combine the spices and brown sugar in a bowl. Rub the mixture all over the ribs.
  • Cook the ribs: You can cook the ribs in the oven, on the grill, or in a smoker. If you are cooking the ribs in the oven, preheat the oven to 300 degrees Fahrenheit. Place the ribs on a baking sheet and cook for 2-3 hours, or until the ribs are tender. If you are cooking the ribs on the grill, preheat the grill to medium heat. Grill the ribs for 15-20 minutes per side, or until the ribs are tender.
  • Make the sauce: Combine the sauce ingredients in a saucepan. Bring the sauce to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and simmer for 15 minutes. Brush the sauce over the ribs during the last 30 minutes of cooking.

Conclusion:

Spicy pork ribs are a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. With a few simple tips, you can make sure that your ribs are cooked to perfection. So next time you are looking for a flavorful and satisfying meal, give spicy pork ribs a try.
