Best Pineapple Pork Ribs For 2 Recipes

PINEAPPLE STICKY RIBS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Arrange ribs in a single layer in a roasting pan.
• Stir pineapple, jam, soy sauce, vinegar, brown sugar, garlic, ginger, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper together in a bowl; pour over ribs.
• Bake in the preheated oven, basting every 15 minutes, until ribs are glazed and pull away easily from the bone, about 1 1/2 hours. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).

PINEAPPLE GLAZED PORK RIBS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F.
• Rub the ribs all over with the sesame oil; season generously with five-spice powder, salt, and pepper. Arrange the ribs in a single layer in a shallow roasting pan and roast for 2 to 2 1/2 hours.
• To prepare the pineapple glaze: In a saucepan over medium heat melt the butter and add the pineapple chunks; saute for 3 minutes. Add the soy sauce, rum, hoisin sauce, ketchup, vinegar, brown sugar, chile, garlic, and ginger. Bring to a slow simmer and cook, stirring, until thickened, about 20 minutes. Pull out the ginger pieces. Pour the glaze into a blender and puree until smooth.
• In the last 30 minutes of cooking, baste the ribs with some of the glaze. When they are done, the pork will pull away from the bone and you will see about 1/2-inch of bone showing. When you are ready to eat, baste the ribs with more glaze and stick them under the broiler for 5 to 8 minutes to give the ribs a nice crust. (Watch them carefully as they can easily burn.) Separate the ribs with a cleaver or sharp knife, pile them onto a platter, and pour on the remaining sauce. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and chopped cilantro before serving.

PINEAPPLE PORK RIBS FOR 2

Steps:

• Place ribs meaty side up on rack in foil-lines shallow roasting pan.

• Bake uncovered in 350 degree oven until done, 1-1/2 to 2 hours, basting 3 or 4 times with remaining sauce.

PINEAPPLE PORK RIBS

Steps:

• Lay each rack on a chopping board upside down. Using a very sharp paring knife, carefully remove the membrane that runs underneath. Using a tea towel, hold one corner of the ribs firmly, and pull the membrane sheet off in one long strip (hopefully!).
• Place the rib racks in a large non-metallic dish - you may need to split them into two dishes.
• Whisk all marinade ingredients together and when the marinade is completely cool, pour over the pork ribs.
• Cover the ribs tightly in cling film and let marinate for a minimum of 4 hours or overnight.
• If using a charcoal barbecue, organize it for indirect grilling - two small piles of hot charcoal on either side of the barbecue with a drip pan made from aluminum foil in the centre.
• If you are using a gas grill, set the grill on medium heat.
• Place the ribs in the middle of the barbecue, away from direct heat.
• Close the lid of the barbecue and leave the vents open for 1 ½ hours. Turn the ribs after 40 minutes. Baste them every 20 minutes with the remaining marinade.
• The ribs are ready when the meat has shrunk back away from the end of the bones. Slice between the bones and serve slathered in extra barbecue sauce.
