Braised Spareribs With Pineapple Food

BRAISED SPARERIBS WITH PINEAPPLE

Steps:

• Cut ribs apart; then with a cleaver, chop each, bone and all, in 2 inch sections. Add soy sauce and toss. Let stand 45 minutes, turning occasionally. Drain, discarding sauce.
• Drain pineapple, reserving juice. Combine juice with sugar, vinegar and water.
• Heat oil in heavy pan or wok. Add ribs and stir-fry to brown (3 to 4 minutes).
• Stir in flour, then pineapple juice mixture. Heat quickly, then simmer, covered, until ribs are tender (about 45 minutes).
• Add salt and canned pineapple chunks, stirring in gently only to heat through.
• Meanwhile blend cornstarch and cold water to a paste, then stir in to thicken. Serve hot.

BRAISED BBQ SPARERIBS

Steps:

• In a large roasting or sheet pan, scatter half the onions. Rub the ribs with Cajun spices and overlap ribs onto the onions. Scatter remaining onions over the ribs. Pour a little water or stock into the pan. Cover tightly with foil and put into a preheated 350 degree oven, for 1 to 2 hours or until ribs are tender. When cooked, brush with barbecue sauce and grill or broil to glaze.
• Mix all ingredients and store in a jar.

PINEAPPLE GLAZED PORK RIBS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F.
• Rub the ribs all over with the sesame oil; season generously with five-spice powder, salt, and pepper. Arrange the ribs in a single layer in a shallow roasting pan and roast for 2 to 2 1/2 hours.
• To prepare the pineapple glaze: In a saucepan over medium heat melt the butter and add the pineapple chunks; saute for 3 minutes. Add the soy sauce, rum, hoisin sauce, ketchup, vinegar, brown sugar, chile, garlic, and ginger. Bring to a slow simmer and cook, stirring, until thickened, about 20 minutes. Pull out the ginger pieces. Pour the glaze into a blender and puree until smooth.
• In the last 30 minutes of cooking, baste the ribs with some of the glaze. When they are done, the pork will pull away from the bone and you will see about 1/2-inch of bone showing. When you are ready to eat, baste the ribs with more glaze and stick them under the broiler for 5 to 8 minutes to give the ribs a nice crust. (Watch them carefully as they can easily burn.) Separate the ribs with a cleaver or sharp knife, pile them onto a platter, and pour on the remaining sauce. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and chopped cilantro before serving.

SOULFULLY GOOD PORK SPARERIBS WITH PINEAPPLE AND GINGER

Steps:

• In a large deep bowl, combiner the reserved pineapple juice, soy sauce, and the next 6 ingredients; add the ribs.
• Cover and marinate overnight in the refrigerator.
• Grease the slow cooker with oil and add the ribs and marinade.
• If you have a round cooker, stack the ribs, alternating them with the reserved pineapple chunks.
• If you have an oval cooker, put the ribs in the crock and scatter the pineapple around the ribs.
• Cover and cook on LOW for 8-9 hours or until tender and the meat starts to separate from the bone.
• Serve immediately.

PINEAPPLE STICKY RIBS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Arrange ribs in a single layer in a roasting pan.
• Stir pineapple, jam, soy sauce, vinegar, brown sugar, garlic, ginger, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper together in a bowl; pour over ribs.
• Bake in the preheated oven, basting every 15 minutes, until ribs are glazed and pull away easily from the bone, about 1 1/2 hours. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).
