Tangerine Sticky Ribs Recipes

STICKY RIBS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F.
• Combine the brown sugar, granulated sugar, chili powder, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, 2 teaspoons salt and a generous amount of freshly ground black pepper in a small bowl (I did 30 grinds).
• Place the ribs on a piece of foil large enough to fold over and seal, then place on a baking sheet. Sprinkle the dry rub all over the top of the meaty side of the ribs. Wrap the foil around the ribs and seal tightly so that no juices can escape during baking. Bake until the meat is tender and can easily be pulled away from the bones with a fork, about 2 hours.
• Heat the BBQ sauce in a small pan over medium heat until warm. Remove the ribs from the oven and open the foil pack. Remove the ribs from the foil and pour any juices that have accumulated into the BBQ sauce and mix to combine. Continue to simmer the sauce until thickened, about 7 minutes.
• Heat a grill or grill pan for cooking at medium-high heat.
• Slice the ribs into 1-bone pieces. Brush all over with the BBQ sauce. Place the ribs on the grill and cook until grill marks appear, a few minutes on each side. Brush with more BBQ sauce and remove from the heat, then serve with the remaining BBQ sauce on the side.

TANGERINE TERIYAKI RIBS

Steps:

• In a bowl, combine 2 cups tangerine juice and both packets of ginger-teriyaki mix. Pour marinade mixture over ribs. Cover and let marinate in the refrigerator for 1 to 3 hours.
• Set up grill for indirect cooking over medium heat (no heat source directly under ribs). Remove ribs from refrigerator and allow ribs to come up to room temperature (about 30 minutes). Remove ribs from marinade mixture, but do not discard marinade. Place ribs in rib rack over drip pan on hot grill. Add a handful of hickory chips to smokebox or each pile of hot coals. Cover grill. Rotate ribs around rack every 30 minutes. If using charcoal, add 10 briquettes to each pile of coals and another handful of soaked hickory chips every hour. Cook 2 to 2 1/2 hours.
• While ribs are cooking, make sauce by first adding rib marinade to a saucepan. Bring to a boil for 5 minutes over high heat. Reduce heat to medium and add the tangerine juice and BBQ sauce. Simmer 10 minutes and remove from heat.
• About 20 minutes before ribs are done, remove ribs from rib rack and lay meat side down on grill. Generously brush with sauce and pile ribs in center of grill over drip pan. Cover and cook 10 minutes. Turn ribs and brush on more sauce and repeat. Cook an additional 10 minutes. Cut into portions and serve hot with sauce on the side.
• INDOOR: Prepare and marinate ribs as directed. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Remove ribs from marinade, reserving marinade, and place meat side up on a rack in a shallow roasting pan. Tightly cover with foil. Bake preheated oven for 1 hour. While ribs are baking, make sauce as directed. Remove ribs from oven and carefully drain fat from roasting pan. Continue baking ribs, uncovered for 30 to 45 minutes more or until tender, turning and brushing occasionally with sauce.

FALL-OFF-THE-BONE STICKY BARBECUE RIBS

Steps:

• If there's a thin membrane on the back of the ribs, peel this off as best you can. The length of the ribs will be determined by the size of your roasting tin and barbecue - leave them whole or cut in half or thirds. Tip the ribs into a large, deep roasting tin. Whisk the rest of the ingredients together in a bowl until completely combined, then pour this over the ribs. Toss the ribs in the sauce using your hands to ensure they're completely coated. Cover the tin with foil, shiny-side down. To cook straightaway, simply leave to marinate while the oven heats up, or chill the ribs overnight.
• Heat the oven to 160C/140C fan/gas 3 and bake the ribs for 2 hrs 30 mins-3 hrs, turning once or twice until the bones are exposed and the meat is pull-apart tender. When the ribs are cooked, leave to cool a little, then lift onto a tray using tongs. Pour the sauce from the tin into a saucepan and bring to the boil. Reduce the heat and simmer for 25-30 mins, stirring occasionally until thickened. Leave to cool. The sauce and ribs can be prepared up to two days ahead and chilled.
• Light the barbecue and wait until the coals are ashen, or set a gas barbecue to medium. Put as many ribs on the grill as you can fit, then brush generously with the sauce. Working quickly, grill the ribs, basting with more sauce and turning every minute or so until the ribs are well-coated, charred at the edges, caramelised and sticky. Repeat with any remaining ribs and sauce if they didn't all fit on the grill at once. Serve piled high on a platter with the reserved sauce on the side for slathering on top. Any leftover sauce will keep chilled in the fridge for up to a week.
