ALMOST-FAMOUS BARBECUE SPARERIBS

Steps:

• Make the marinade: Whisk the brown sugar, vinegar, onion, garlic, 1 tablespoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper in a bowl. Put the ribs meat-side down on a cutting board. Starting at one end, slip a paring knife under the membrane that covers the back of the rack. Loosen the membrane with the knife, then pull it off. Coat the ribs on both sides with the marinade; wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight.
• Make the rub: Mix the brown sugar, chili powder, garlic powder, onion powder, celery salt, celery seeds, cayenne, 1 tablespoon salt and 1 teaspoon black pepper in a bowl.
• Soak 2 cups hickory wood chips in water, 30 to 40 minutes. Meanwhile, preheat a grill to medium low (275 degrees F) and prepare for indirect grilling: For a charcoal grill, bank the coals to one side; for a gas grill, turn off the burners on one side. Cover the grate on the cooler side of the grill with foil.
• Drain the wood chips. For a charcoal grill, scatter the chips over the hot coals; for a gas grill, put the chips in a smoker box and place over direct heat. Close the lid and allow smoke to build up, about 10 minutes. Rinse the marinade off the ribs and pat dry with paper towels. Work the spice rub into both sides of each rack with your hands.
• Place the ribs, meat-side up, on the foil over indirect heat. Close the lid and cook, undisturbed, until the meat shrinks back slightly to expose a bit of the bone, about 1 hour, 30 minutes.
• Rotate the ribs (keep them meat-side up and over indirect heat), then close the lid and continue cooking, 2 hours to 2 hours, 30 minutes. (For a charcoal grill, add more hot coals as needed to maintain the temperature.)
• Meanwhile, make the barbecue sauce: Heat the vegetable oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the garlic and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden, about 1 minute. Stir in the tomato paste and chili powder until incorporated, about 1 minute. Whisk in the vinegar, 1/4 cup water, the molasses, Worcestershire sauce, honey, mustard powder, espresso powder, 3/4 teaspoon black pepper and the cayenne. Bring to a simmer and cook, whisking occasionally, 5 minutes. Whisk in the ketchup and pineapple preserves. Bring to a gentle simmer and cook, whisking occasionally, until thickened, about 45 minutes. Whisk in the liquid smoke. Let the sauce cool to room temperature, then remove the garlic. (The sauce will keep, refrigerated, up to 2 weeks.)
• Baste the ribs generously with the prepared barbecue sauce. Close the lid and continue cooking until glazed, about 20 more minutes. Transfer to a cutting board; let rest a few minutes before cutting into individual ribs. Serve with more sauce on the side.

SPARERIB MARINADE

Steps:

• Blend all ingredients in a blender, cut slices in the ribs and chicken, spread mixture and let sit for an hour or two.
• Note: the sauce because of the hot peppers is very hot to the taste before it is cooked, however, the heat from the peppers dissipates after it is cooked.

TAKEOUT-STYLE CHINESE SPARE RIBS

Steps:

• Mix together the hoisin sauce, soy sauce, brown sugar, honey, five-spice powder, garlic, ginger and food coloring in a metal, non-reactive bowl. Pour the marinade into a large zip-top bag, reserving 1/2 cup on the side for basting later. Add the ribs to the bag and marinate, refrigerated, for at least 3 hours, though longer is better and overnight is ideal.
• Heat a charcoal or gas grill to 275 degrees F for direct and indirect grilling.
• Remove the ribs from the marinade (discard the marinade) and place onto a wire rack. Place the rack directly on the cooler side of the grill. Cook until the meat is very tender, basting with the reserved marinade 3 times during the cooking process, 2 to 3 hours.
• Drizzle the ribs with honey, move them to the direct heat side and quickly char each rib to caramelize.

SIZZLING SPARE RIBS WITH BBQ SAUCE

Steps:

• Tip the ribs into a big bowl (not a metal one) and throw in the spring onions, chilli and garlic. Now spoon all the remaining ingredients over the ribs and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Get your hands in the bowl and turn the ribs over and over again until they're coated in the sauce. (You can keep the ribs uncooked - tightly covered - in the fridge for up to 3 days. You can also freeze them for several months.)
• Cook the ribs over a moderate barbecue for 20-30 minutes depending on their size, turning them over frequently and brushing with sauce each time. The turning and brushing is important, so that all four sides of each rib get encrusted with the sauce, which builds up like a lacquer. If you have any leftover sauce at the end, heat it up in a pan and pour it over the ribs just before serving.

BARBECUE RIBS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Cut spareribs into serving size portions, wrap in double thickness of foil, and bake for 1 1/2 hours. Unwrap, and drain drippings. (I usually freeze the drippings to use later in soups.) Place ribs in a large roasting pan.
• In a bowl, mix together brown sugar, ketchup, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, rum, chile sauce, garlic, mustard, and pepper. Coat ribs with sauce and marinate at room temperature for 1 hour, or refrigerate overnight.
• Preheat grill for medium heat. Position grate four inches above heat source.
• Brush grill grate with oil. Place ribs on grill, and cook for 30 minutes, basting with marinade.

RIB MARINADE

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients.
• Marinade meat several hours or overnight.
• Can freeze.

CHINESE SPARERIBS

Steps:

• In a shallow glass dish, mix together the hoisin sauce, ketchup, honey, soy sauce, sake, rice vinegar, lemon juice, ginger, garlic and five-spice powder. Place the ribs in the dish, and turn to coat. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for 2 hours, or as long as overnight.
• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Fill a broiler tray with enough water to cover the bottom. Place the grate or rack over the tray. Arrange the ribs on the grate.
• Place the broiler rack in the center of the oven. Cook for 40 minutes, turning and brushing with the marinade every 10 minutes. Let the marinade cook on for the final 10 minutes to make a glaze. Finish under the broiler if desired. Discard any remaining marinade.

ROASTED HONEY-GLAZED SPARERIBS

Steps:

• Make marinade:
• With flat side of a large knife smash garlic. In a small saucepan heat brown sugar, honey, and vinegar over moderate heat, stirring, until sugar is dissolved. Remove pan from heat and stir in garlic and remaining marinade ingredients until combined well. Cool marinade to room temperature.
• Fold up spareribs and fit into two 1-gallon heavy-duty sealable plastic bags. Divide marinade between bags and seal bags, pressing out excess air. Marinate ribs in bags in a large roasting pan, chilled, turning them once, 1 day.
• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• Open bags and, holding ribs in bags, pour marinade into a saucepan. Discard garlic. Simmer marinade until reduced to about 1‚ cups. Pour 1 cup marinade into a bowl and reserve as sauce for serving with ribs (remainder will be used for basting ribs).
• Arrange ribs, overlapping slightly, in 2 large roasting pans and roast in upper and lower thirds of oven 30 minutes. With tongs turn ribs over so they will brown evenly. Roast ribs 30 minutes more and with tongs turn them over.
• Switch position of pans in oven and baste ribs with some of remaining marinade in saucepan. Roast ribs 30 minutes and with tongs turn them over. Brush ribs with remaining marinade in saucepan and roast 30 minutes more, or until meat is very tender. Ribs may be made 30 minutes ahead and kept, tightly covered with foil, at room temperature.
• Transfer ribs to a cutting board and cut apart between bones. Serve ribs with reserved sauce.

REALLY STICKY RIBS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6. In a large bowl, mix together the passata, garlic, soy sauce, honey and Worcestershire sauce.
• Add the pork ribs to the bowl and mix well to coat evenly. Lay the ribs and all the sauce into a large, shallow roasting tin. Cover with foil and bake for 35 mins.
• Remove foil from tray and bake the ribs for a further 45-60 mins, turning them a couple of times, until sticky and almost all of the sauce has disappeared. To make ahead, cook or half-cook the ribs the night before and keep in the fridge until needed.

SWEDISH SPARERIBS

Steps:

• In a small bowl, mix together the pepper, sugar, salt and allspice. Sprinkle the spice mixture generously over each rib.
• Melt butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat, but be careful not to burn. Brown ribs on all sides in the butter. Pour in the beef broth, cover, and reduce heat to low. Simmer for about 1 1/2 hours, or until ribs are fork tender. Do not remove the lid from the skillet during cooking.

SIMPLE SPARE RIBS

Steps:

• Place the ribs in a roasting pan. Mix together the chicken broth, teriyaki sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, salt and pepper. Pour over the ribs. Cover, and marinate for 1/2 hour.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Cover the roasting pan with aluminum foil.
• Roast in the oven for about 2 hours, or until the meat is so tender that it comes off of the bone easily. Check occasionally to make sure the juices do not boil over into the oven, and remove some of the broth if necessary.

MARINATED THAI-STYLE PORK SPARERIBS

Steps:

• 1. Put the shallots, scallions, ginger, garlic, cilantro, soy sauce, fish sauce, salt, pepper, and sugar in the bowl of a food processor. Process to a loose, finely chopped paste, scraping down the sides of the bowl once or twice.
• 2. Place pork ribs in a large bowl or a pair of heavy resealable plastic bags. Thoroughly coat the ribs with the marinade, massaging the paste into the flesh for a minute or so. Cover and marinate at room temperature for 2 hours or up to 5 hours in the refrigerator, tossing the ribs once or twice during this time.
• 3. Preheat oven to 350°F. Spread the ribs out, bone-side down, on two large, parchment-lined baking sheets and bake until ribs are deeply colored and very tender but not yet falling from the bone, about 11/2 hours, occasionally rotating the pans to encourage even cooking. Remove from the oven and serve with small bowls of Thai Chile-Herb Dipping Sauce .

SLOW-BAKED SPARERIBS WITH MANGO-CHUTNEY MARINADE

Steps:

• Arrange rib racks in large roasting pan. Whisk all remaining ingredients in bowl. Pour marinade over ribs, turning to coat. Cover; chill overnight, turning ribs once.
• Position 1 oven rack in top third of oven and 1 rack in bottom third of oven; preheat to 300°F. Drain ribs; reserve marinade. Transfer marinade to saucepan; bring to boil. Remove from heat. Place each rack of ribs on large rimmed baking sheet. Place 1 baking sheet on each rack in oven. Bake ribs until tender, basting with 1/4 cup marinade every 20 minutes and covering edges of ribs with strips of foil to protect from burning if necessary, about 3 hours total. Cut between bones to separate ribs. Transfer to platter; serve.

MARMALADE-GLAZED SPARERIBS

Steps:

• Whisk first 5 ingredients in large bowl. Add ribs; toss to coat. Transfer ribs and marinade to 15 x 10 x 2-inch glass baking dish. Cover and refrigerate overnight, turning ribs occasionally.
• Position 1 rack in center and 1 rack in top third of oven and preheat to 350°F. Line 2 large roasting pans with foil. Place racks in pans. Transfer ribs from marinade to racks. Roast ribs until golden brown, very tender and well glazed, rotating pans halfway through roasting and basting frequently with marinade, about 1 1/2 hours. Serve warm or at room temperature.
