Freds Barbequed Pork Ribs Food

BARBECUED PORK RIBS

Steps:

• For the ribs: In a medium saucepan, combine the soy sauce, brown sugar, molasses, salt and 1 cup water. Bring to a boil and set aside to cool to room temperature.
• Put the ribs in a large, turkey-sized baking bag or sealable plastic bag. Support the bag in a 12-by-14-inch baking pan. Pour the marinade over the ribs and seal the bag. Marinate the ribs in the refrigerator for a few hours, turning the bag occasionally to thoroughly coat the meat.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Drain and discard the marinade. Cut four slits in the top of the baking bag, if you are using one. Otherwise, remove the ribs, transfer them to the baking pan, and cover the pan with foil or a lid. Bake for 2 hours.
• For the barbecue sauce: While the ribs are baking, blend the ketchup, chili sauce, brown sugar, dry mustard and 1/3 cup water in a large saucepan. Bring the mixture to a boil, stirring to dissolve the sugar, then remove from the heat.
• When the ribs are cooked and tender, remove them from the baking bag. Lower the oven temperature to 350 degrees F.
• Brush the ribs on both sides with the barbecue sauce and return them to the oven to bake, uncovered, for 30 minutes longer. Just before serving, throw the ribs under the broiler to give them a bit of a char.

BARBEQUED PORK

Steps:

• Cut the pork butt in half, then slice each half into 3/4-inch thick strips. (You should have about 12 strips). Place the pork in a nonreactive bowl. Combine the marinade ingredients in a small bowl and pour over the pork strips. Turn the meat to evenly coat, then cover, refrigerate, and marinate at least 3 hours or up to overnight, turning the meat occasionally.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Arrange a rack in a large roasting pan, and fill the pan with 1/4 inch of water. Remove the pork from the marinade and arrange on the rack. Roast for 45 minutes. Meanwhile, combine the honey and boiling water in a small bowl. After 45 minutes, brush the pork strips with the glaze, increase the oven to 425 degrees F, and roast for another 15 to 20 minutes, brushing with the glaze every 5 minutes. When pork is cool enough to handle, slice across the grain into 1/2-inch slices and arrange on a platter to serve.

THE BEST EVER BBQ PORK RIBS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 275°.
• Cut ribs in half & generously apply rub on both sides, massaging it into the meat.
• Wrap each half tightly in heavy duty aluminum foil.
• Place each in a shallow pan with sides.
• Bake for 3 hours.
• Serve with your favorite sauce.
• NOTE: If you want them BROWNED, carefully remove the ribs from the foil. Place under broiler or on grill until desired, but watch carefully so not to burn -- 10-12 minutes each side should be sufficient.
• NOTE 2: If you want them SMOKED, carefully remove the ribs from the foil. Place on grill, using indirect method -- smoke for about an hour. I recommend Apple or Hickory.
• DO NOT soak wood chips/chunks in water! Wood doesn't absorb much water, so all you're doing is cooling off the coals.
• ENJOY!

BARBECUED PORK RIBS

Steps:

• To prepare the ribs place one rib rack meat side down on a cutting board and with a knife cut a small slit through the membrane at the end of the rack. Then use a paper towel and peel the membrane off the rack and discard. Repeat with the other rack.
• To make the rub combine the rub ingredients (sugar - celery seed) in a bowl. Rub mixture on both sides of the racks. Place ribs on a baking sheet and cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours (or overnight). Let stand at room temperature for 30 minutes before cooking.
• To make the sauce heat the oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Add and onion and garlic and cook for 2-5 minutes or until onion is tender. Stir in red pepper flakes and tomato paste and cook for another minute. Stir in bourbon and the next 5 ingredients (tomatoes - brown sugar) an cook stirring until sugar dissolves.
• Bring the sauce to a boil and then reduce heat and simmer until reduced by half (30 minutes). Season with salt and pepper. Let cool. Puree in blender until smooth.(Can be covered and refrigerated for up to 2 weeks or use immediately).
• Prepare grill by placing a 9 x 12 inch disposable aluminum pan in center of bottom rack in grill. Prepare charcoal grill or gas grill to medium low.
• Let ribs stand at room temperature for 30 minutes while preparing gril. Fold a paper towel in half and dip in oil - use it to brush grill racks.
• Place both rib racks, bone side down, on top of grill rack directly over pan (to catch drippings). Cover and cook ribs without turning for 3- 3 1/2 hours or until meat is tender but not falling off the bones. To maintain temperature of 275 - 325 degrees F you will need to add briquettes to each charcoal pile every hour or so.
• Transfer 1 cup of the sauce to a small serving bowl. Set aside. With remaining sauce brush both sides of the ribs. Cover and grill for another 15 minutes or until ribs are deep mahogany. Let stand for 10 minutes and serve with reserved sauce.
• ** These can also be made in the oven by cooking them in a 350-degree oven for 2 hours.
