BARBECUE RIBS



Barbecue Ribs image

This recipe is easier than it sounds. I usually cook the ribs the day before and grill them for a quick dinner the next night. FYI: the sauce is much better after it is cooked. It is not a dipping sauce.

3/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
3 bay leaves, crumbled
2 tablespoons neutral tasting oil, such as grapeseed or vegetable
6 cloves garlic, smashed
2 tablespoons tomato paste
1 slightly heaping tablespoon chili powder
1 tablespoon paprika
1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1/4 teaspoon ground allspice
Pinch ground cloves
2 cups ketchup
2 cups water
1/2 cup cider vinegar
1/4 cup dark molasses
1/4 cup firmly packed dark brown sugar
1 tablespoon kosher salt
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
2 teaspoons English-style dried mustard
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 bay leaf
3 guajillo chiles
3 mulato chiles
1/2 medium onion, cut into wedges
6 cloves garlic, unpeeled
2 tablespoons corn oil
1 cup tomato puree
1 cup strong black coffee
1/4 cup turbinado sugar
1 tablespoon kosher salt, plus additional for seasoning
1 teaspoon dried oregano, preferably Mexican
Pinch ground cloves
Pinch ground cumin
2 teaspoons cider vinegar

Steps:

  • Trim the membrane off the back of the ribs and rub ribs all over with spice blend. Cover and refrigerate for 2 to 24 hours. Soak wood chips in water for at least 30 minutes before grilling.
  • Prepare an outdoor grill with a medium fire for indirect grilling. Place a drip pan, half-filled with water, under the cooler side of the grill grate. Open bottom vents of the grill.
  • Set the ribs over the drip pan. (If you have a rib rack, use it.) Toss 1 cup of the drained wood chips onto the coals and cover the grill. Rotate the lid so that the vent holes are directly over the ribs. Add about 1 cup of hardwood charcoals to the fire about every hour during the cooking time to maintain a medium to medium-low fire (a temperature of about 250 degrees F to 275 degrees F is ideal). After 3 hours the meat should pull back from the bones and will have turned a reddish brown. Baste the ribs with some of the barbecue sauce of your choice and cook over direct heat until lightly glazed. Cut the racks into ribs and serve with extra sauce on the side.
  • Whisk paprika, brown sugar, oregano, garlic, ancho powder, salt, and celery salt in a small bowl. Store in an airtight container in a cool, dry place for up to 2 months.
  • Makes about 3/4 cup
  • Mix brown sugar, oregano, parsley, garlic, onion powder, paprika, thyme, black pepper, salt, celery salt, white pepper, cayenne, and bay leaves in a bowl. Pulse in a spice grinder in two batches to a medium-fine grind. Seal in an airtight container and store in a cool, dry place for up to 2 months.
  • Makes 1 cup
  • Heat the oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Stir in the garlic, tomato paste, chili powder, paprika, red pepper, allspice, and cloves and cook, stirring, until paste is dark brick red, about 3 minutes. Add the ketchup, water, vinegar, molasses, brown sugar, salt, soy sauce, Worcestershire, mustard, black pepper, and bay leaf. Adjust the heat to maintain a gentle simmer and cook until the flavors come together, about 30 minutes. Remove and discard bay leaf before using.
  • Makes about 1 quart
  • Split, stem, and seed the chiles. Toast the chiles in a dry skillet over medium-high heat, turning and flattening with a spatula, until fragrant, about 3 minutes. Put the chiles in a heatproof bowl, cover with very hot water, and set aside until soft, about 30 minutes. Drain, reserve soaking liquid, chop chiles roughly, and set aside.
  • While the chiles soak, char the onion and garlic in the same dry skillet over medium heat until the onion blackens slightly and garlic softens in the skin, about 8 minutes. Cool, squeeze the garlic out of the skin, and put in a blender with chiles and onion. Puree to a paste, adding soaking liquid as needed (about 3/4 cup) to help the mixture break down.
  • Heat the oil in the skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chile mixture and cook, stirring, until thick and fragrant, about 4 minutes. Add the tomato puree, coffee, sugar, 1 tablespoon salt, oregano, cloves, and cumin. Adjust the heat to maintain a gentle simmer and cook, stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened, about 15 minutes.
  • Stir in vinegar and season with salt to taste.
  • Makes 1 quart

Provided by Sam Jones

Time P1DT15m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 31

1 rack spareribs (about 2½-3 pounds), trimmed to a uniform size, membrane on bone-side removed
3 ounces kosher salt
4 ounces sugar
1 gallon Water
1/4 cup BBQ Spice Rub, recipe follows
1/4 cup Sweet BBQ Pit Sauce, recipe follows
4 teaspoons cayenne pepper
1 cup light brown sugar
1/2 cup kosher salt
1/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup garlic powder
1/4 cup ground mustard
1/4 cup garlic salt
1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1/4 cup chili powder
2 tablespoons onion powder
1 cup paprika
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 2/3 cups sugar
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 tablespoon paprika
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
3/4 teaspoon garlic salt
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 1/2 cups light brown sugar
2 3/4 cups ketchup
1 stick unsalted butter, melted, 4 oz
1 1/4 cups water
1 1/2 cups apple cider vinegar
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce

Steps:

  • Brine: In a 1-gallon container, combine water, salt, and sugar. Seal and shake to dissolve salt and sugar, about 30 seconds. Lay ribs in large container; add the brine, making sure the ribs are fully submerged. Cover and refrigerate 15-24 hours, optimally 20 hours.
  • Smoke ribs: Light smoker and heat on 250 degrees F. (For smokier ribs with a pronounced internal "smoke ring," Pitmaster Jones suggest adding wood chips on top of the charcoal during the first hour of cooking.) Remove brined ribs and place on a flat surface. Par dry with paper towels on both sides. Sprinkle BBQ Spice Rub all over ribs on both sides; use your hands to work the rub in, making sure all of the ribs are covered.
  • Place ribs bone-side down onto the grill. Cover and cook undisturbed for 3-3 1/2 hours. Check smoker temperature hourly; add charcoal and use vents as needed to maintain a temperature of 250 degrees F through the duration of cooking.
  • Stack 2 large sheets of aluminum foil on a flat work surface. After 3-3 1/3 hours, remove ribs from smoker and place on foil, bone-side down. Spread a small amount of Sweet BBQ Pit Sauce evenly over the meat. Wrap and place back in the grill, bone-side down, 30 minutes.
  • Remove ribs from smoker and remove foil. Place back on smoker grates and cook another 10-15 minutes. Remove, cut into individual ribs, and serve.
  • BBQ Spice Rub: In a bowl, combine all the ingredients. Mix well to break up any lumps. (Optional: Use a food processor.) Makes about 4 cups. It will keep in a covered container at room temperature for several months. Before each use, stir the rub or shake well to re-distribute all the ingredients evenly.
  • Sweet BBQ Pit Sauce, part 1: In a saucepan, combine the dry ingredients and mix well to break up any lumps. Add ketchup, melted butter, water, vinegar, and Worcestershire sauce. Bring sauce to a simmer over low heat. Continue to simmer, stirring the entire time until the sauce has reduced and thickened, about 15 minutes. (Keeping the heat low helps prevent the butter from separating and the sugar from burning.)
  • Sweet BBQ Pit Sauce, part 2: Sauce is done when it thinly coats a spoon and has reduced by about ⅓. Cool to room temperature, stirring occasionally so it doesn't stick to the bottom. Makes about 3 cups of Sweet BBQ Pit Sauce. Store in a covered container in the refrigerator. (It will keep for months, thanks to the vinegar.)

BARBECUED SPARERIBS



Barbecued Spareribs image

Categories     Pork     Summer     Grill/Barbecue     Gourmet

Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

For ribs
2 1/2 tablespoons sugar
3 tablespoons paprika
2 tablespoons ground cumin
1 1/2 tablespoons black pepper
1 tablespoon chili powder
1 tablespoon salt
2 full racks pork spareribs (each 3 lb), brisket flap and chine bone removed
For basting sauce
1 3/4 cups distilled white vinegar
2 tablespoons sugar
1 tablespoon Tabasco
1 tablespoon salt
1 1/2 teaspoons black pepper

Steps:

  • Place pork in crockpot.
  • Mix remaining ingredients together in a bowl and pour over pork.

Nutrition Facts : Servingsize 4 serving

Tips:

  • Selecting the Right Ribs: Choose high-quality pork spareribs that are meaty and have a good amount of marbling. Look for ribs that are evenly colored and have a pinkish hue.
  • Proper Preparation: Before cooking, remove the membrane from the back of the ribs to allow the rub and sauce to penetrate better. Trim any excess fat to reduce greasiness.
  • Rubbing for Flavor: Apply a flavorful rub to the ribs before cooking. The rub should contain a blend of spices, herbs, and seasonings that complement the pork. Some popular rub ingredients include brown sugar, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, chili powder, and cumin.
  • Cooking Techniques: There are several methods for cooking Yankee BBQ spareribs:
    • Grilling: Grill the ribs over medium heat, turning them occasionally to ensure even cooking. Baste with barbecue sauce during the last 15-20 minutes of cooking.
    • Smoking: Smoke the ribs in a smoker or on a grill fitted with a smoker box. Maintain a consistent temperature between 225°F and 250°F for several hours, allowing the ribs to absorb the smoky flavor.
    • Baking: Bake the ribs in a preheated oven at 300°F for 2-3 hours, covered with aluminum foil. Baste with barbecue sauce during the last 30 minutes of cooking.
  • Basting and Saucing: Throughout the cooking process, baste the ribs with a flavorful barbecue sauce. This helps keep them moist and adds a delicious caramelized layer.
  • Checking for Doneness: The ribs are done cooking when the meat is tender and easily pulls away from the bone. You can also check the internal temperature, which should reach 195°F.

Conclusion:

Yankee BBQ spareribs are a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With careful selection of ribs, proper preparation, and the right cooking techniques, you can create tender, flavorful ribs that will be the star of any barbecue or gathering. Experiment with different rubs, sauces, and cooking methods to find your perfect combination. Whether you prefer grilled, smoked, or baked ribs, the Yankee BBQ style offers a unique and satisfying culinary experience.
