Steps:
- INSTRUCTIONS For the spicy apricot sauce: Place serrano peppers in smoker for one hour. Cook onions until soft and translucent then add serrano peppers. Add Moroccan rib rub, Worcestershire sauce. Simmer for 30 minutes. Add apricot preserves, honey, tomato sauce and pan drippings. Cook rapidly until sauce thickens then let simmer for one to two hours. For the tagine-style ribs: Remove the membrane from the ribs and rub generously with the rub (about ¾ cup). Prepare smoker for barbecue at 225 to 250 degrees F. Add the ribs to a rack and set a water dish directly below to catch drippings and help braise while cooking. Carefully monitor smoker temperature, adding additional wood as required. After two hours, slice tomato and add to smoker along with the whole garlic clove. After two and a half hours, remove ribs from smoker, dress with spicy apricot sauce, wrap in aluminum foil (a technique known as the "Texas crutch") and return to smoker for the final 30 minutes. After three hours, finely chop smoked tomatoes, peel and chop garlic and add to prepared couscous. Remove ribs and slather generously with sauce. Cut into one to two ribs servings, place over bed of couscous, garnish with mint leaves and serve.
SPICY APRICOT RIBS
I made these as part of several dishes I was doing, so I only did 10 ribs, but the sauce would be enough if you were making 1-1.5 kg of spareribs. It is a super easy recipe to make and the end result is wonderful. I always par boil my ribs as this is the way get tender ribs every time.
