Asian Spice Rubbed Ribs with Pineapple-Ginger BBQ Sauce and Black and White Sesame Seeds image

Provided by Bobby Flay

Time 7h10m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 32

2 tablespoons canola oil
4 cloves garlic, smashed
3-inch piece fresh ginger, peeled and chopped
1 large Spanish onion, coarsely chopped
3 cups fresh ripe pineapple chunks
1 habanero, chopped
1 cup fresh pineapple juice
2 cups hoisin sauce
1/4 cup ketchup
1/4 to 1/2 cup dark brown sugar (depending on sweetness of pineapple)
3 tablespoons ancho chile powder
2 heaping tablespoons Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons honey
2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 teaspoons ground star anise
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup Spanish paprika
1 1/2 tablespoons dry mustard
1 tablespoon ground ginger
1 tablespoon ground star anise
1 1/2 teaspoons ground allspice
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 1/2 teaspoons ground black pepper
1 teaspoon Thai chile flakes
2 racks St. Louis style pork ribs (12 ribs each), membranes removed
2 cups soy sauce
1/2 cup peeled and coarsely chopped fresh ginger
6 cloves garlic, smashed
1 tablespoon black sesame seeds
1 tablespoon white sesame seeds
1 bunch scallions, chopped

Steps:

  • For the sauce: Heat the oil over medium-high heat in a heavy-bottomed medium saucepan. Add the garlic, ginger and onions and cook until soft, about 5 minutes. Add the pineapple chunks and habanero and cook for 1 minute. Add the pineapple juice and cook until it caramelizes slightly, about 3 minutes. Add the hoisin, ketchup, brown sugar, ancho powder, mustard, honey, soy sauce, star anise and cinnamon and cook until thickened, about 30 minutes.
  • Transfer the mixture to a blender and blend until smooth. Season with salt and pepper . Pour into a bowl and allow to cool to room temperature.
  • For the ribs: Stir together the paprika, dry mustard, ground ginger, star anise, allspice, salt, pepper and Thai chile flakes in a bowl. Rub the ribs on the top side, wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours and up to 24 hours.
  • Preheat a charcoal grill with about 80 briquettes off to 1 side, or in a kamado-style ceramic charcoal cooker with the ceramic plate removed. Remove the ribs from the refrigerator 1 hour before grilling.
  • Combine 4 cups water, the soy sauce, ginger and garlic and divide between two heavy disposable pans.
  • If using a charcoal grill: Put one disposable pan of steaming liquid on the bottom grate of the grill on the opposite side of the coals. Put the top grate on and heat well. Put the ribs on the grill, top-side down, directly over the hot coals and cook until golden brown and a crust has formed, about 10 minutes. Move the ribs to the other side of the grill, over the liquid, and place the other disposable pan with steaming liquid next to them over the coals. Put the lid of the grill on and open the vents on top halfway. Cook until the ribs are tender and juicy, about 2 hours. Add water as necessary to prevent scorching, and coals to keep the internal temperature between 225 and 250 degrees F.
  • If using the kamado-style ceramic charcoal cooker: Remove the ceramic plate and heat the grill rack. Put the ribs on the grill, top-side down, directly over the hot coals and cook until golden brown and a crust has formed, about 10 minutes. Remove the ribs and rack and put in the ceramic plate. Put one disposable pan of steaming liquid on the plate, then return the rack and the ribs to the grill. Cover and cook until ribs are tender and juicy, about 2 hours. Add water as necessary to prevent scorching, and coals to keep the internal temperature between 225 and 250 degrees F.
  • If using charcoal, finish the ribs by moving them back over the hot coals and turning and basting with sauce for 15 to 20 minutes. If using the ceramic charcoal cooker, leave the plate in and brush liberally with sauce for 15 to 20 minutes before removing from the grill.
  • Combine the sesame seeds and sprinkle the tops of the ribs. Cut the ribs apart and put on a platter. Scatter the green onions over the top and serve.

Number Of Ingredients 27

Source:
Adapted from Raichlen on Ribs by Steven Raichlen (Workman, 2006)
Method:
Spit-Roasting
Advance
Preparation:
Category:
Meat---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ingredients:
1 cup pineapple juice
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1 tablespoon sweet paprika
2 teaspoons coarse salt (kosher or sea)
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon fennel seed
1 teaspoon granulated onion or onion powder
1/2 teaspoon granulated garlic or garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon caraway seed
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/8 teaspoon ground cloves
2 racks baby back pork ribs (4 to 5 pounds total)
Ginger-Pineapple-Rum Barbecue Sauce (recipe follows)
Other Items Needed:
Spray bottle (optional); 1-1/2 cups wood chips or chunks (optional;
preferably pecan or hickory), soaked for 1 hour in water to
cover, then drained.

Steps:

  • Place the pineapple juice in a spray bottle or in a bowl and set it aside.
  • Place the brown sugar, paprika, salt, cinnamon, fennel seed, granulated onion and garlic, caraway seed, ginger, pepper, and cloves in a small bowl and mix with your fingers, breaking up any lumps in the brown sugar.
  • Prepare the ribs: Place a rack of ribs meat side down on a baking sheet. Remove the thin, papery membrane from the back of the rack by inserting a slender implement, such as a butter knife or the tip of a meat thermometer, under it. The best place to start is on one of the middle bones. Using a dishcloth, paper towel, or pliers to gain a secure grip, peel off the membrane. Repeat with the remaining rack.
  • Sprinkle the rub over both sides of the ribs, rubbing it onto the meat. Cover the ribs with plastic wrap and refrigerate them while you set up the grill.
  • Thread the ribs onto the rotisserie spit: Place a rack of ribs bone side up on a work surface. Using a sharp, slender knife, make starter holes in the center of the meat between every 4th or 5th rib. Twist the knife blade to widen the holes; this will make it easier to insert the spit. Repeat with the remaining rack of ribs. Use an over and under weaving motion to thread the spit through the holes in the racks of ribs.
  • Set up the grill for spit roasting following the manufacturers instructions and preheat to high. Place a large drip pan in the center of the grill directly under the spit.
  • When ready to cook, attach the spit to the rotisserie mechanism, turn on the motor, and cover the grill. After 20 minutes, spray the ribs with the pineapple juice. Cook the ribs until they are golden brown and cooked through, 30 to 45 minutes, spraying with pineapple juice every 10 minutes.
  • When the ribs are done, the meat will have shrunk back from the ends of the bones by about 1/4 inch.
  • Just before you are ready to remove the ribs from the spit, brush them on both sides with the Ginger-Pineapple-Rum Barbecue Sauce. Let them continue to turn on the spit until the sauce is sizzling, about 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Transfer the spit with the ribs to a cutting board. Carefully remove the skewer, then let the ribs rest for a few minutes. Serve the racks, whole or cut into individual ribs, with the remaining Ginger-Pineapple-Rum Barbecue Sauce.

  • Increase the heat to high and whisk in the rum. Let the sauce boil until thick and richly flavored, 3 to 5 minutes. Taste the sauce for seasoning, adding more kejap manis as necessary and salt and pepper to taste (you may not need much salt on account of the soy sauce). Let the sauce cool to room temperature before serving. It can be refrigerated, covered, for several weeks. Let the sauce return to room temperature before using.

TEN-SPICE STRIP STEAK WITH SOY-GINGER BBQ SAUCE



Ten-Spice Strip Steak with Soy-Ginger BBQ Sauce image

Back in the mid '80s I worked a semester as a cook for 38 college girls at a sorority at Syracuse University. A great gig if there ever was one. The Japanese housemother, Mrs. M., opened my mind to the freshness of ginger and other Asian flavors. You can find five-spice powder and hot chili sauce in the Asian section of your supermarket.

Yield feeds 4

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 1/2 tablespoons five-spice powder
1 1/2 tablespoons Creole Seasoning (page 167)
2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons olive oil
4 strip steaks (10 to 12 ounces each)
1 tablespoon peanut oil
1 tablespoon chopped fresh ginger
1 tablespoon chopped garlic
Pinch each of kosher salt and black pepper
3/4 cup Mutha Sauce (page 165)
1/4 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup water
1 teaspoon Sriracha Hot Chili Sauce (optional)
1/4 teaspoon sesame oil
Juice of 1/8 lemon
1/2 cup sliced scallion

Steps:

  • Mix up the five-spice powder, Creole Seasoning, and soy sauce in a bowl. Add the oil to make a paste and rub it over the steaks. For best results, do this in the morning.
  • Throw the sauce together when you get home. Set a saucepan on the stove and turn the heat to medium. Heat up the peanut oil and cook the ginger and garlic with a pinch of salt and pepper for 2 minutes. Add the remaining ingredients, saving 2 tablespoons of the scallions for garnish, and stir to blend. Keep warm.
  • Fire up the grill. Scrape off the seasoning paste where it's heavy on the steaks, leaving a light, even coating. Cook the steaks to the desired temperature (see page 34). Ladle the sauce over the steaks, and toss on those scallions you saved, to give the whole dish a little color.
