Best Barbecue Braised Vietnamese Short Ribs With Sweet Vinegar Glaze Recipes

VIETNAMESE BRAISED PORK RIBS

Vietnamese Braised Pork Ribs image

Not all ribs are baked or grilled. These are oven braised with a Vietnamese spice mixture, which makes them succulent and juicy, and very tender. You can braise them a day ahead and keep them refrigerated in their juices; they reheat beautifully.

Ingredients

2 medium shallots, finely chopped
2 lemongrass stalks, tough outer layer removed, lightly smashed and very finely chopped (about 2 tablespoons)
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon fish sauce (such as Red Boat)
1 tablespoon hot chile paste (such as sambal oelek)
2 teaspoons kosher salt
2 tablespoons brown sugar
2 teaspoons Chinese five-spice powder
1 tablespoon grated garlic
2 tablespoons finely chopped or grated ginger
3 to 4 pounds baby back ribs
4 scallions, slivered or chopped, for garnish
Cilantro and mint sprigs, for garnish

Steps:

Make the marinade: In a small bowl, put the shallots, lemongrass, soy sauce, fish sauce, chile paste, salt, sugar, five-spice powder, garlic and ginger. Mix well.
Put the meat in a deep baking dish or roasting pan and add marinade. Using your hands, coat ribs well. Let marinate, refrigerated, for at least 2 hours and preferably overnight, well wrapped. Bring back to room temperature before proceeding.
Heat oven to 450 degrees. Add 2 cups water to the pan, cover tightly with foil and place pan in oven. Cook for 30 minutes, then reduce heat to 350 degrees for 1 hour more. When done, the meat should be very tender, nearly but not quite falling off the bone. Remove cover and return to the oven for about 15 minutes until the ribs are nicely browned.
Remove ribs from pan. Pour pan juices into a saucepan and skim fat. Reduce over high heat until somewhat thickened, about 5 minutes. Meanwhile, divide ribs with a sharp knife and pile them onto a platter.
Serve family style with steamed rice and pan juices. Garnish with scallions, cilantro and mint sprigs.

Categories main-dish

Time 3h45m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

Ingredients

1 (5-pound) rack short ribs, bison or beef
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 cup sherry vinegar
1 cup sherry
2 1/2 cups beet juice
1 head garlic, cut in half horizontally
1 cup large diced onions
1/2 cup large diced carrots
1/2 cup large diced celery
1 small sachet (thyme, rosemary, and bay leaf)
8 cups veal stock
4 cups water
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
Salt and pepper

Steps:

Brown the ribs in the olive oil in a stock pot on all sides. Remove to a paper towel lined plate. Remove the pan from the heat and carefully add the sherry and sherry vinegar. Return to the heat and cook, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan, for about 5 minutes. Be careful as the alcohol may ignite when returned to heat. If it ignites, wait to stir until the flames die out.
Add the rest of the ingredients, except for the butter, including the browned ribs, to the pot. Bring the liquid to a simmer, cover, and cook for about 3 hours, or until the ribs are very tender.
Season with salt and pepper. Remove the ribs from the pot and set aside on a plate. Strain the liquid and return to the pot. Add the butter and stir until the butter is incorporated. Add the ribs back to the pot and coat well with the sauce. Serve.
