This recipe is from Epicurious. Does not include overnight marinating time. Ingredients:
1/2 cup packed golden brown sugar |
1/2 cup apple butter |
1/4 cup bourbon |
1/4 cup apple cider vinegar |
3 tablespoons apple cider |
2 tablespoons dijon mustard |
1 tablespoon kosher salt |
1 tablespoon packed golden brown sugar |
1 1/2 teaspoons dry mustard |
1 1/2 teaspoons dried thyme |
1 teaspoon ground ginger |
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon |
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper |
racks of baby-back pork ribs or beef rib |
1 large onion, sliced |
1 cinnamon stick, broken in half |
6 slices thin rounds peeled fresh ginger |
1 1/4 cups apple cider |
Directions:
1. For basting sauce:
2. Whisk all ingredients in medium bowl to blend.
3. For ribs:.
4. Mix first 7 ingredients in small bowl. Using small sharp knife, loosen membrane from underside of each rib rack and pull off (or score membrane).
5. Rub 1 tablespoon seasoning mix into each side of each rib rack.
6. Place ribs in large roasting pan. Cover and chill at least 6 hours and up to 1 day.
7. Preheat oven to 325°F Lift ribs from pan. Scatter onion, cinnamon stick, and ginger in pan.
8. Pour in cider. Return ribs, meat side down, to pan; cover pan with foil.
9. Roast ribs until meat is tender and begins to pull away from bones, about 2 hours. Uncover; cool at least 30 minutes and up to 2 hours.
10. Prepare barbecue (medium-high heat). Grill ribs until heated through and slightly charred, about 5 minutes per side. Brush generously on all sides with basting sauce. Grill until sauce becomes sticky glaze, about 3 minutes longer per side. Transfer rib racks to cutting board. Cut racks between bones into individual ribs. Arrange on platter and serve, passing remaining sauce separately.
