Baby Back Ribs With Tropical Bbq Sauce Food

BBQ BABY BACK RIBS

Steps:

• Working with one rack of ribs at a time, slip a knife between the bones and thin membrane to loosen, then grab the membrane with a paper towel and pull it off. Put the ribs on a baking sheet and rub the spice rub on both sides. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate 6 hours or overnight.
• Prepare a grill for indirect grilling: For a gas grill, preheat to medium high; after about 10 minutes, turn off one or two of the middle burners and turn the remaining burners down to medium low. For a charcoal grill, light the charcoal; once the coals have just ashed over, carefully push them to opposite sides of the grill and set a drip pan in the middle to avoid flare-ups.
• Place the ribs bone-side down on the cooler part of the grill (overlap the rib racks slightly to fit, if necessary). Cover and cook, rotating the position of the rib racks once halfway through, until the meat is tender and pulls back from the ends of the bones, 2 hours to 2 hours 15 minutes. Flip and move to direct heat and cook, uncovered, until charred in spots, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board and cut into pieces.

THAI-STYLE BABY BACK RIBS

Steps:

• Build a fire in your grill; when the coals are all covered with gray ash and the temperature is medium-low (you can hold your hand 5 inches above the coals for 7 seconds), you're ready to cook. (For a gas grill, turn all burners to high, lower cover and heat for 15 minutes, then turn burners to medium-low.)
• Sprinkle the ribs generously with salt and pepper, place them on the grill directly over the coals, and cook until a peek inside shows that the meat no longer has any pink at the center, about 10 to 12 minutes per side.
• When the rib racks come off the grill, cut them into individual ribs and place in a large bowl. Add all the remaining ingredients, toss to coat, season with more salt and pepper if needed, and serve.

BABY BACK RIBS WITH TUSCAN BBQ SAUCE

Steps:

• Ribs: Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Cut each rack of ribs in half and season with salt and pepper. Stack the ribs on a foil-covered baking sheet, in two piles of 3 pieces. Bake in the oven about 2-1/2 hours, or until tender, rotating the ribs every 30 minutes. Remove the ribs from the oven and cover them with foil to keep them moist and tender.
• Sauce: In a bowl, whisk together the honey, soy sauce, vinegar, ketchup, and espresso. Place the olive oil and garlic in a small saute pan. Cook over low heat for about 1 minute, or until it turns a golden brown. Remove from heat. Add to the honey mixture. Place the honey mixture in a saucepan and bring to a simmer for 15 minutes to blend the flavors.
• To complete: Brush the BBQ sauce on both sides of the ribs, and arrange them in a single layer. Place the ribs on an outdoor grill or in a 425 degree F oven. Turn and baste the ribs as they cook. Remove when the ribs are glazed and tender, about 15 minutes.

APPLE BBQ SAUCE BABY BACK RIBS

• Preheat grill for high heat.
• Place ribs in foil on the grill grate, and cook 1 hour. Remove ribs from foil, and place directly on the grill grate. Continue cooking 30 minutes, basting frequently with the sauce, until ribs are done.

CUBANO MOJITO OVEN-ROASTED BABY BACK RIBS WITH HABANERO & GUAVA-PINEAPPLE TROPICAL BBQ SAUCE

Steps:

• Set the ribs in a shallow roasting pan, and pour the Mojito Marinade over them. Flip the ribs around in it to make sure they're coated all over; then grind on lots of black pepper. Cover and marinate for 4 hours or overnight.
• Preheat the oven to 250°. Put a wire rack over a jelly roll pan and pour 1 cup of water into the pan. Pull the ribs out of the marinade, scraping off any extra. Set the ribs on the rack, meaty side up. Slide them into the oven and roast slowly. Check every hour or so. If the meat looks dry, mop it lightly with some of the Mojito Marinade.
• Cook up a batch of sauce while the ribs are roasting. Set a saucepan over medium-high heat. Pour in the oil, and once it gets hot, add the ginger and habanero peppers. Cook for 1 minute. Dump in the pineapple and the guava paste, stirring til the guava paste dissolves. Add the lime and lemon juices and the Mutha Sauce. Simmer for a couple of minutes to blend the flavors. Stir in the cilantro. Set aside and heat up before serving.
• Check the ribs for doneness after 2 1/2 to 3 hours. They will be done if you can gently tear the meat between the bones or poke your finger through the meat, or if they've reached an internal temperature of at least 180°, or if they bend nicely when you grab them in the middle with a pair of tongs. Once they're tender, glaze the ribs with some of the sauce and keep cooking for 15 to 20 minutes. Or for a caramelized finish, turn on the broiler and get the surface of the ribs sizzling. When they're nicely bronzed, brush with the sauce.
• Pull the ribs out and let them set for 5 to 10 minutes, then serve with the remaining sauce.
