PINEAPPLE GRILLED BBQ RIBS

Steps:

• wash the rough outside skin of the pineapple and slice off the bottom and leaves. Cut the skin off in 1/2"-3/4" slices. Set the remaining pineapple aside.
• In a large stock pot (15 qt is best), add the pineapple skin slices, 1 cup brown sugar,2 cups BBQ sauce, the orange slices, dash of liquid smoke, and the rib sections.
• Add enough water to the pot to cover the ribs completely, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer ribs for 40 minutes. Don't overcook them.
• Remove ribs from pot and set aside to cool.
• While ribs cool, make a rub from the orange zest, remaining brown sugar, chili powder, garlic powder, and salt and pepper to taste.
• When ribs are cool enough to handle, apply rub to both sides of meat. Place ribs in a plastic freezer bag, and allow to marinate for 3 or 4 hours (or longer if you prefer).
• After marinating time, add 1 cup of BBQ sauce to the bag and coat ribs. Allow them to come to room temperature in the bag.
• In the mean time, slice the remaining pineapple into 1/2" thick rings and brush with BBQ sauce. I occasionally add a tsp of honey to the BBQ sauce for grilling --
• Heat BBQ grill to 300 degrees. Place ribs on grill, and brush with BBQ sauce, turning frequently and basting with sauce, about 20 minutes, being careful not to let sauce burn. Reduce heat if necessary.
• During the last 8 minutes of cooking, add the pineapple slices to the grill, turning once and allowing them to carmelize and brown with grill marks.
• Remove ribs and pineapple to a serving platter and enjoy.

GRILLED PINEAPPLE-AND-COLA SHORT RIBS

Steps:

• Combine the cola, pineapple juice, lemon juice, soy sauce, brown sugar, sriracha and garlic in a medium bowl and whisk until smooth. Add the short ribs and be sure to completely submerge them in the marinade. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour or, better yet, overnight.
• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F and place a grill pan over high heat. Line a sheet pan with foil and grease foil with 1/4 cup of the oil. Pour the remaining 1/4 cup of vegetable oil onto the grill pan.
• Remove the ribs from the marinade and season lightly with salt and pepper. Grill the rib pieces until they have nice grill marks, about 1 minute per side. Place on the prepared sheet pan and place in the oven for 8 minutes.
• For the quick kimchi salad: Combine the cucumbers, cabbage, vinegar, sriracha, fish sauce, pepper flakes and sugar in a small bowl and mix vigorously. Refrigerate, uncovered, until serving.
• Serve the ribs with the salad and rice. Enjoy!
