Ginger Garlic And Honey Grilled Baby Back Ribs Food

HOISIN BABY BACK RIBS

Steps:

• Combine 1/2 cup hoisin sauce, the vinegar, honey, soy sauce, Sriracha, ginger and garlic in a 6-quart slow cooker. Add the ribs and turn to coat. Cover and cook on low, 6 hours.
• Preheat the broiler and line a rimmed baking sheet with foil. Transfer 1 cup of the liquid from the slow cooker to a medium bowl; whisk in the remaining 1/2 cup hoisin sauce and the ketchup. Transfer the ribs to the prepared baking sheet and brush both sides generously with the sauce. Broil, bone-side down, until browned and bubbling, 3 to 5 minutes.
• Transfer to a cutting board and slice into individual ribs. Top with more sauce and sprinkle with the scallions. Serve with coleslaw.

GINGER BEER-MARINATED BABY BACK RIBS

Steps:

• Combine the ginger beer, soy sauce, Worcestershire, garlic, ginger and lime zest and juice in a large resealable plastic bag. Add the ribs and tightly seal the top. Put in a bowl or baking sheet and refrigerate for 2 hours and up to overnight.
• Preheat the oven to 275 degrees F.
• Remove the ribs from the marinade and reserve 3 cups. Pat the ribs dry and place each rack on a double layer of heavy-duty foil. Sprinkle each with 1/2 teaspoon salt and a generous amount of black pepper. Tightly wrap each rack in the foil and put on a baking sheet. Bake until the ribs are tender and falling off the bone, about 2 hours.
• Meanwhile, bring the reserved marinade to a boil in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Simmer until reduced to 1 cup, about 20 minutes. Strain the liquid and return it to the saucepan. Whisk in the ketchup and a generous amount of black pepper. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat and simmer, whisking frequently, until slightly thickened, about 5 minutes.
• Line a second baking sheet with foil and turn the oven to broil. Carefully remove the racks from the foil and transfer to the prepared baking sheet. Brush the ribs all over with the barbecue sauce. Broil until the sauce is caramelized, dark and slightly sticky, 3 to 5 minutes. Serve with lime wedges and habanero hot sauce.

GINGER AND HONEY BABY BACK RIBS

Steps:

• Place rib racks on work surface. Using small sharp knife, carefully pry papery membrane off underside of each rib section (use caution-it will be slippery). Place ribs on large rimmed baking sheet.
• Combine ginger, garlic, sugar, 1 tablespoon coarse salt, and black pepper in processor and puree to blend well. Add honey, soy sauce, and fish sauce and process until blended. Spread spiced marinade on both sides of ribs (about 2 tablespoons marinade per side for each rib section).
• Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 4 hours. Can be made 1 day ahead; baste ribs occasionally with accumulated marinade on baking sheet. Keep chilled.
• Spray grill rack with nonstick spray. Prepare barbecue (high heat). Spoon any juices from baking sheet with ribs over ribs before grilling. Place rib racks, rounded (meaty) side down, on grill rack for 3-5 minutes to sear. Turn the grill down to medium for 10 minutes. Flip over to bone side and turn back to high for 5 minutes. Grill ribs on medium for another 15 minutes. Adjust cooking time depending on the thickness of your ribs.
• Transfer ribs to cutting board. Cut between bones into individual ribs. Transfer ribs to platter. You can make the dipping sauce above as well and allow each diner to squeeze juice from lime into bowl with coarse salt and white pepper and stir until mixed, then dip ribs into sauce.

GINGER, GARLIC, AND HONEY GRILLED BABY BACK RIBS

Steps:

• Prepare the ribs and spice paste: If necessary, remove the thin, papery membrane from the back of each rack of ribs some stores sell baby backs with the membrane removed. If you are using the larger racks of ribs, cut each rack in half. Place the ribs in a nonreactive baking dish just large enough to hold them in a single layer.
• Place the garlic, ginger, sugar, 1 tablespoon of salt, and the black pepper in a mortar and pound to a paste with a pestle. If you do not have a mortar and pestle, puree these ingredients in a food processor. Work in the honey, soy sauce, and fish sauce.
• Spread the spice paste over the baby back ribs on both sides. Let the ribs marinate in the refrigerator, covered, for 1 to 4 hours; the longer the ribs marinate, the richer the flavor will be.
• Prepare the ingredients for the dipping sauce: Place 1 teaspoon of salt and 1 teaspoon of white pepper in neat mounds side by side in each of 4 tiny bowls for the dipping sauce. Place 2 lime halves next to each bowl.
• Set up the grill for direct grilling and preheat it to medium.
• When ready to cook, brush and oil the grill grate. Place the ribs, bone side down, on the hot grate and grill until golden brown and cooked through, 8 to 12 minutes per side, a little longer for full-size ribs.
• When the ribs are done, the meat will have shrunk back from the ends of the bones by about 1/4 inch.
• Transfer the racks of ribs to a cutting board and cut them into individual ribs, then arrange them on a platter or plates for serving.
• Squeeze 1 to 2 tablespoons of lime juice into the bowls of salt and white pepper and stir until mixed. Dip the ribs in the sauce before eating.
