Braised Barbecue Pork Spareribs Recipes

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.

OVEN BRAISED BARBECUE PORK RIBS

Steps:

• Fold each sheet of foil in half lengthwise.
• You now have two double thick sheets measuring 18x18 inches.
• Stack them on top of each other, folded sides on top, and triple fold the three cut edge sides together, crimping firmly, leaving the folded edge side open.
• You now have a double thickness foil bag.
• Put the foil bag on a large baking sheet with sides (in case of leaks) and fill with the ribs, being careful not to puncture the bag if the ribs are 'bone-in'.
• Mix together the ketchup, beer, syrup, onion, garlic, Worcestershire, and hot sauce.
• Pour into the bag with the ribs.
• Triple fold and firmly crimp the top folded edges of the foil.
• Put the bag, still on the baking sheet, into a 300 degree oven for 3 hours.
• Remove from the oven, cut a corner of the foil bag, and drain the liquid contents into a sauce pan.
• Crimp the cut edge and set the ribs aside, still sealed in the foil.
• Bring the liquids to a boil and reduce to a glaze-like consistency (like b-b-que sauce).
• While the sauce is reducing, preheat your oven broiler.
• Place the ribs on a oil-sprayed broiler pan, being careful to keep as whole as possible, as they will be very tender.
• Taste the sauce and add more hot sauce if you want more spiciness.
• Brush the ribs generously with the sauce and broil close to the heat until the sauce starts to bubble and caramelize (about 1-2 mins.).
• Turn the ribs, and repeat.
• If you want a thicker coating, do this brush-and-broil process one more time per side.
• (I usually do.) Serve with any extra sauce to pour over.
• NOTE: If you don't have or can't find the dark maple syrup, dark corn syrup is a good substitute.

BRAISED BARBECUE PORK SPARERIBS

Steps:

• Preheat grill on high 10 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 350.
• Clean grill with wire brush. Using soft cloth, coat grill grate lightly with vegetable oil.
• Season both sides of ribs with barbecue seasoning. Sear on grill 3-4 minutes per side; do not cook through. Transfer ribs to braising pan.
• Whisk bbq sauce and beer together in bowl until well-blended; pour over ribs in pan. Cover pan tightly with foil; place in oven.
• Bake 2 1/2-3 hours. Carefully remove foil; bake 10 additional minutes.
• Note: You'll need a braising pan.

BRAISED SPARE RIBS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
• Season flour with salt and pepper and dust ribs with it. Knock off any remaining flour and heat up oil. Brown ribs in oil and set aside.
• Saute, over low heat, the onions and garlic until translucent. Add spices and stir. Add the puree, red wine vinegar, and beef stock and bring to a simmer. Place ribs in braising pan and cover with the seasoned beef stock and veal stock. Cover with foil. Place in the oven for 2 1/2 hours or until ribs are tender.

BRAISED SPARERIBS WITH CABBAGE

Steps:

• Put olive oil in a large, deep skillet or casserole that can be covered, and turn heat to high. A minute later, add garlic and chilies. When they sizzle, add ribs, meatier side down; sprinkle with salt and pepper, and add bay leaves. Cook, adjusting heat so the meat browns, 5 to 10 minutes. Turn ribs, and brown again. Remove ribs to a plate.
• Pour off excess fat, and add cabbage and some more salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until cabbage browns. Add wine, and stir to release any brown bits stuck to bottom of pan. Return ribs to pot; adjust heat so mixture simmers steadily but not violently, and cover.
• Cook, checking occasionally to be sure the mixture does not dry out. (If it does, add more white wine or water.) When ribs are tender and cabbage is very soft -- this will take at least 45 minutes -- uncover. If mixture is soupy, turn heat to high, and cook, stirring occasionally and carefully, until it is more of a moist stew. Garnish with parsley and serve immediately, or cover and refrigerate for up to a day before reheating.

BARBECUED SPARERIBS

• In a Dutch oven, place ribs and onion; sprinkle with salt and pepper. Add enough water to cover ribs; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 1-1/2 hours or until meat is tender; drain. , Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, combine sauce ingredients. Simmer, uncovered, for 1 hour or until slightly thickened, stirring occasionally. , Arrange ribs on a rack in a broiler pan. Brush with sauce. Broil 5 in. from the heat for 5 minutes on each side, brushing frequently with sauce.

BRAISED PORK RIBS

Steps:

• Sprinkle separated ribs liberally on all sides with garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
• Heat oil in a pan over medium-high heat. Brown ribs in the hot oil on all sides, 5 to 7 minutes. Add enough red wine to almost cover the ribs. Cover, reduce heat, and let simmer for 45 minutes. Stir in onion, carrot, and celery. Continue to simmer for 45 minutes more, adding more wine or water if sauce is too thick.

BRAISED BBQ PULLED PORK

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C).
• Heat a Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Season pork with salt and pepper. Sear in the hot Dutch oven on all sides, about 5 minutes total. Remove and set aside.
• Combine vinegar, water, onion, mustard, lemon slices, butter, honey, and cayenne in the Dutch oven and simmer for 20 minutes. Remove lemon. Add ketchup and Worcestershire sauce and return to a boil; add pork and cover tightly with a lid or foil.
• Braise in the center of the preheated oven until meat shreds easily with a fork, about 3 hours. Check occasionally to see if a little water should be added. Remove from the oven and shred pork into sauce using 2 forks.

BRAISED AND GRILLED OR BROILED PORK RIBS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 300 degrees. Cut meat into two racks if necessary; season with salt and pepper. Put oil in a large, deep ovenproof skillet or casserole that can later be covered. Turn heat to medium-high and, when oil shimmers, sear meat on both sides until nicely browned, turning as necessary.
• Add allspice, cinnamon, ginger, chiles and garlic and stir; add beer. Bring to a boil; cover pan and adjust heat so mixture simmers steadily. Put in oven and cook until meat is tender, 1 hour or more. (You can prepare meat up to a day or two ahead; if you are not going to grill or broil immediately, put whole pan in refrigerator after it cools a bit.)
• Light a charcoal or gas grill or heat broiler; rack should be about 4 inches away from heat source. Drain meat and sprinkle it with salt and pepper. Grill or broil on both sides until brown and crisp, just a few minutes. Meanwhile, skim cooking liquid of fat, bring to a boil, and use as sauce.
