Chinese Pork Rib Tips Recipes

OVEN-BAKED BARBECUE RIB TIPS

Steps:

• Remove silver skin from underside of rib tips, if it is there. Rub seasoned salt on both sides of the meat.
• Line a baking pan with aluminum foil and place seasoned meat into the pan. Cover tightly with another piece of foil and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, up to overnight.
• Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F (120 degrees C).
• Bake in the preheated oven, covered and undisturbed, for 2 1/2 hours.
• Remove from the oven and increase oven temperature to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Uncover and drain the pan, if necessary. Brush barbecue sauce over ribs. Return to the oven and bake for 15 minutes.
• Turn ribs and brush with additional barbecue sauce; continue baking for another 15 minutes. Repeat this twice more, for a total of 1 hour baking time at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Remove from the oven and cut into desired serving size, about 1 1/2 to 2 inches.
• Set an oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler.
• Broil in the preheated oven to develop a bit of char, 2 to 3 minutes, watching carefully to make sure they do not burn. Remove from the oven and serve.

CHINESE BBQ PORK (CHAR SIU) RIBS RECIPE

Steps:

• Prep. Remove the membrane from the rack of ribs. Cut the rack in to individual ribs.
• Mix the marinade thoroughly in a bowl. Don't skip the booze. It helps penetrate, and even if you're a teetotaler, don't worry, there isn't any measurable alcohol in the meat. Yes, I know alcohol can dry meat out, but I just think it works well in this case. If you must skip it, substitute apple juice or water. You can substitute fresh ginger and garlic for powdered ginger and garlic if you wish.
• Marinate. Marinate the meat for 1 to 2 hours in a metal bowl or zipper bags. Discard the used marinade. It is contaminated with meat juice. Don't marinate in a plastic bowl if you use the food coloring. It might stain.
• Fire up. As much as we are fans of outdoor cooking, this meat also tastes great cooked in an indoor oven. Either way, heat your cooker or oven to about 225°F (107.2°C) in the indirect zone.
• Cook. If you are grilling, set up in a 2-zone or Indirect system. Make sure the meat is not directly over the flame on a grill. Indoors, put a pan of water with a rack on top of it under the meat. This is important or drippings will burn in the pan. Roast ribs for about 3 hours, loin strips for about 1 1/2 hours. If you grill, skip the smoking wood. I think it is cleaner and brighter sans lumber.
• Serve. Once completely cooked, slice the rack of ribs between the bones and serve.

CHINESE PORK RIBS

Steps:

• Put the ribs in a large pan and cover with water. Bring to the boil and simmer for 15 mins. Meanwhile, pour the hoisin sauce in a jug and stir in the soy sauce, honey, vinegar and five-spice.
• Drain the ribs very well, then brush with the glaze - if barbecuing, chill, cover and keep in the fridge for later.
• Heat the grill to high, if using. Grill or barbecue for 15-20 mins, turning from time to time until shiny and slightly charred in places. Serve hot.

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.

CHINESE PORK RIB TIPS

Steps:

• Heat a cast iron pan over medium-high heat. Add oil, ginger and pork rib tips, in that order, to the hot pan. Stir-fry ribs until the surface of the ribs turns golden on all sides, about 5 minutes.
• Pour enough boiling water on top of the ribs so the ribs are just covered with water. Cover with a lid and cook for 10 minutes. Remove lid and keep cooking until the water is almost absorbed, 5 to 20 minutes more. Be careful not to burn the ribs. Add rock sugar, vinegar, and soy sauce. Stir until well combined and cook until sauce thickens, 1 to 2 minutes.

• Add pork ribs to a large pot and add cold water to cover. Bring to a boil over medium high heat, then turn to medium heat. Boil for 5 minutes while skimming the foam off the top with a spoon.
• Add the ginger, green onion, nutmeg, star anise, cloves, and cooking wine. Turn to low heat. Cover and simmer for 40 minutes. Stir occasionally.

Smash with the back of a spoon until the bean curd dissolves. Pour back into the pot. Simmer uncovered for another 40 to 50 minutes, until pork turns tender but is not quite falling of the bone.
• (Optional) Add the vegetables. Continue simmering for 15 minutes, until the vegetables turn tender.
• Add cornstarch and 1/3 cup water into a small bowl. Whisk well until the cornstarch dissolves completely. Slowly add half of the slurry into the pot. Stir to mix well. Add more slurry and stir if you want to thicken the sauce more. Note, you might not need to add all the cornstarch slurry. (*Footnote 2)
