Yield 4 Servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

Ribs:
2 cups white wine vinegar
1 yellow onion, quartered
1 head of garlic, halved crosswise
2 tablespoons table salt
10 1/2 cups water
4 1/2 pounds (4 racks) American-style pork ribs
Lime wedges and pickled jalapeño peppers, to serve
Corn and Jalapeño Chile Flatbreads, to serve, optional
Chipotle Glaze:
1 (7-ounce) can chipotle chiles in adobo sauce
2 tablespoons onion flakes
1 tablespoon Tabasco sauce
1 tablespoon Dutch cocoa powder
1/2 cup maple syrup
1/2 cup dark brown sugar
1 tablespoon sea salt

Steps:

Place the vinegar, onion, garlic, salt and water in a large pot over high heat and bring to a boil. Add the ribs, reduce the heat to medium and cover with a lid. Simmer for 30-40 minutes or until the ribs are tender.
While the ribs are cooking, make the chipotle glaze. Mix to combine the chipotle chiles, onion flakes, Tabasco, cocoa powder, maple syrup, sugar and salt.
Remove the ribs from the cooking liquid and place in a large deep-sided tray or pan. While the ribs are still hot, rub the chipotle glaze evenly over the ribs to coat. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes until cool or overnight.
Preheat oven to 425°F. Place the ribs on wire racks set over 2 rimmed baking sheets lined with parchment paper. Roast for 20 minutes, brushing with glaze every 5 minutes, until golden and caramelized. Serve with lime wedges, pickled jalapeño peppers and the Corn and Jalapeño Chile Flatbreads, if desired.

Categories Pork

Time P1DT1h30m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 garlic cloves, peeled and roughly chopped
1/3 cup ground dried ancho chile powder
4 teaspoons brown sugar
1 teaspoon dried oregano, preferably Mexican
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
4 teaspoons ground black pepper
5 teaspoons salt
4 large slabs baby back ribs (about 6 1/2 pounds)
1 (7 1/2 ounce) can chipotle chiles in adobo
3/4 cup honey

Steps:

Season the Ribs. Combine all the dry rub ingredients in a food processor and run until thoroughly blended. Sprinkle the mixture on both sides of each slab of ribs, rub it in to ensure even coverage, then cover and refrigerate overnight. You'll probably have a little dry rub left; in a tightly closed jar in the refrigerator it will last several months.
First Rib Cooking: Heat the oven to 300 degrees. Lay the ribs in a single layer on two rimmed baking sheets and bake for about 1 1/4 hours, until the meat is tender when tested with a fork. (This cooking may be done early in the day you're serving. Cover and refrigerate the cooked ribs until an hour before serving).
Second Rib Cooking. Turn on a gas grill to medium or light a charcoal grill and let the coals burn until medium-hot and covered with a white ash. In a food processor, blend the can of chipotles with the honey. Scrape into a small bowl and carry to the grill, along with a basting brush.
Lay the ribs on the grill, convex-side down. When hot and well browned, about 3 minutes, flip them over and brush liberally with the chipotle glaze. Cover the grill and cook about 7 minutes for the glaze to set and begin to brown a little. There will likely be leftover glaze, which can be covered and refrigerated for a week or two.
Cut the ribs apart and serve immediately.

Time 4h55m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 22

2 teaspoons yellow mustard
2 pork rib racks (St. Louis style spare ribs)
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1 recipe Spicy Cherry Glaze, recipe follows
2 tablespoons scallions, chopped
1 teaspoon sesame seeds
1 tablespoon oil
1 cup diced red onion
4 tablespoons minced ginger
3 cups canned cherries in syrup, preferably Bing
2 tablespoons minced garlic
2 tablespoons tequila (recommended: Cabo Wabo Resposado)
3 tablespoons hot sauce (recommended: Sriracha)
1 teaspoon sesame oil
1 tablespoon sherry wine vinegar
4 tablespoons soy sauce
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

Place ribs onto aluminum foil. Brush the mustard onto the ribs. Mix dry ingredients thoroughly. Then cover the ribs with the rub. Let sit at room temperature for 45 minutes.
Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.
Wrap the ribs, meat side down, in the aluminum foil then place onto a baking sheet. Bake for 10 minutes. After 10 minutes, reduce the heat to 225 degrees F and cook for another 1 1/2 hours. Then, open the foil and cook for 1 hour. Remove ribs from oven, and discard the foil. Cut into 4-rib portions. Liberally slather on the Spicy Cherry Glaze, then place, bone side down, in a roasting pan. Pour the remaining sauce over the ribs and continue to cook for 1 1/2 hours, basting occasionally. When ribs are fork tender, place under broiler for 10 minutes to crisp the cherry glaze. Serve immediately garnished with scallions and sesame seeds.
In a medium saute pan over medium heat, add oil, onion, ginger, cherries and garlic. Saute until lightly caramelized. Deglaze with tequila, hot sauce, sesame oil, sherry wine vinegar and soy sauce. Let simmer for 15 minutes. Season, with salt and pepper.
