Ingredients for Barbecue Pork Ribs
To make irresistibly flavorful barbecue pork ribs, you will need the following ingredients:
- 4.4 lb (2 kg) pork spareribs
- Salt to taste
- Black pepper to taste
- 3 garlic cloves (finely minced)
- 1 medium onion (finely chopped)
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil (olive oil works too)
- 1 cup (200 g, packed) brown sugar (good quality)
- 1 cup ketchup (good quality)
- 1/2 cup apple cider vinegar
- 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 1/2 cup honey
- 1 tablespoon paprika
Making the Barbecue Pork Ribs
To make sure your barbecue pork ribs turn out perfect, follow the steps below:
1. Prepping the Ribs
Start by prepping the ribs. First, remove any excess fat. Season the pork ribs with salt and black pepper on both sides, making sure the meat is well seasoned.
2. Marinating the Ribs
In a large container, mix the minced garlic, chopped onion, and two tablespoons of vegetable oil (olive oil works too). Rub this mixture all over the ribs, cover the container with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least two hours (ideally, marinate overnight).
Making the Homemade Barbecue Sauce
While the ribs are marinating, you can start making the homemade barbecue sauce. To do so, follow the steps below:
1. Sautéing the Ingredients
In a medium saucepan, heat two tablespoons of vegetable oil (olive oil works too). Add the finely chopped onion and sauté until translucent. Then add the finely minced garlic and sauté for one more minute.
2. Adding the Sauce Ingredients
Add the brown sugar, ketchup, apple cider vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, Dijon mustard, honey, and paprika. Mix everything very well and cook over low heat for about 20 to 30 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens.
Cooking the Barbecue Pork Ribs
Once the ribs are well marinated and the barbecue sauce is ready, it is time to cook the ribs. Follow the steps below:
1. Preheating the Oven
Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Place the ribs in a baking pan, cover with aluminum foil, and roast for about 1 hour and 30 minutes.
2. Applying the Barbecue Sauce
Remove the aluminum foil and generously brush the barbecue sauce all over the ribs. Return the pan to the oven for 40 more minutes, turning the ribs and brushing on more sauce every 10 minutes.
Finishing the Barbecue Pork Ribs
To add the finishing touches to your recipe, follow these steps:
1. Resting and Slicing
Remove the ribs from the oven and let rest for 10 minutes before slicing. This helps keep the juices inside the meat, leaving your ribs juicier.
2. Serving
Cut the ribs into individual portions and serve with the remaining barbecue sauce. Garnish with fresh herbs if desired.
