Mahogany Grilled Baby Back Ribs image

"My mom first made these ribs many years ago, and I added it to my recipe collection at that time. This recipe is some extra work, so over the years I have looked for a recipe that might be just as good, but not as much work. I have given up the search! These ribs have now become a family favorite and I conclude, they are worth the extra time!"

Number Of Ingredients 18

2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 onion, chopped
1 carrot, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
4 cups pineapple juice
3 pounds baby back ribs
2 tablespoons hot pepper sauce (such as Tabasco®), or to taste
1 bay leaf
3 cups chicken broth, or as needed
Glaze:
3/4 cup plum sauce
1/3 cup tomato paste
1/3 cup soy sauce
1 tablespoon hot pepper sauce (such as Tabasco®), or to taste
1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
1 tablespoon lime juice
2 teaspoons minced fresh ginger
3 cloves garlic, minced

Steps:

  • Heat vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat; cook and stir onion, carrot, and 2 cloves minced garlic in the hot oil until onion is softened, about 10 minutes. Pour pineapple juice into onion mixture; bring to a boil. Add ribs, 2 tablespoons hot sauce, and bay leaf. Pour in enough chicken broth to cover ribs. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer until ribs are tender, 45 to 60 minutes.
  • Remove skillet from heat and cool ribs in the cooking liquid until no longer steaming; discard cooking liquid.
  • Combine plum sauce, tomato paste, soy sauce, 1 tablespoon hot sauce, red wine vinegar, lime juice, ginger, and 3 cloves minced garlic in a saucepan; bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until flavors combine and glaze is thickened, about 5 minutes.
  • Place ribs in a bowl; generously brush ribs with glaze. Cover bowl with plastic wrap and marinate ribs in the refrigerator for 2 hours to overnight. Reserve extra glaze in the refrigerator for basting.
  • Remove ribs from refrigerator and bring to room temperature for 30 minutes.
  • Preheat grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate.
  • Grill ribs, basting occasionally with glaze, on the preheated grill until the meat pulls away easily from the bone, 15 to 20 minutes.
