Hoisin Ginger Baby Back Ribs Recipes

HOISIN BABY BACK RIBS

Steps:

• Combine 1/2 cup hoisin sauce, the vinegar, honey, soy sauce, Sriracha, ginger and garlic in a 6-quart slow cooker. Add the ribs and turn to coat. Cover and cook on low, 6 hours.
• Preheat the broiler and line a rimmed baking sheet with foil. Transfer 1 cup of the liquid from the slow cooker to a medium bowl; whisk in the remaining 1/2 cup hoisin sauce and the ketchup. Transfer the ribs to the prepared baking sheet and brush both sides generously with the sauce. Broil, bone-side down, until browned and bubbling, 3 to 5 minutes.
• Transfer to a cutting board and slice into individual ribs. Top with more sauce and sprinkle with the scallions. Serve with coleslaw.

HOISIN AND SRIRACHA-GLAZED BABY BACK RIBS

Steps:

• Remove the inside membrane from the ribs. Whisk the vinegar, ginger, ponzu sauce, sesame oil and garlic together in a large bowl. Add the ribs, turning to coat evenly. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or up to overnight.
• Prepare an outdoor grill for medium-high direct and indirect grilling.
• Remove the ribs from the marinade and pat dry. Sprinkle on all sides with the five-spice powder and a few pinches of salt and pepper. Put on the indirect side of the grill, bone side down, and cover the grill. Cook until the meat is tender and the ribs are crisp on the outside, rotating halfway about through, 1 hour to 1 hour and 15 minutes.
• Whisk the hoisin and sriracha together in a small bowl. Transfer the ribs to the direct heat side of the grill and continue to cook for an additional 30 minutes, brushing with the sauce about every 10 minutes until the ribs are well glazed. Transfer the ribs to cutting board and let rest 5 minutes. Cut between the ribs and transfer to a serving platter. Scatter the scallions over the top if using.

HOISIN GINGER BABY BACK RIBS

Steps:

• 1. Combine the marinade ingredients in a medium bowl and blend well. Place the ribs in a jumbo plastic sealable bag. Add the marinade to the ribs and marinate in the refrigerator for 2 to 24 hours, turning occasionally. 2. Preheat the oven to 325 F. 3. Place the ribs and marinade on a piece of foil large enough to wrap tightly without any holes. Place the package in a large roasting pan and bake for 1 1/4 hours. Alternately, place the ribs and marinade in a roasting pan and cover well. The ribs should be tender when pierced with a fork. 4. Remove the ribs from the oven. Remove the ribs from the foil, drain and reserve the juices and place in a dish. 5. Prepare the barbecue for medium-heat grilling. Grill the ribs about 3 inches from the flame for 5 to 7 minutes on each side or until they reach the desired doneness, basting occasionally with the reserved juices and making sure they do not burn. Place on a serving platter and serve with the reserved juices, if desired.

HOISIN-GINGER GLAZED BABY BACK RIBS

Steps:

• Prepare smoker of grill* for indirect cooking. Add 3-4 chunks of your favorite smoking wood to the charcoal briquets and adjust the grill vents to bring the temperature to 250°F.
• In a small bowl, combine the five-spice powder, salt, and brown sugar and blend well to create an Asian spice rub for the ribs. Remove the membrane from the bone side of the ribs. Rub the ribs with the mustard then season both sides liberally with the Asian spice rub. Place the ribs on the smoker or grill.
• Cover and allow the ribs to smoke for approximately 3½-4 hours until tender (note: when done, ribs will pull away from the bone slightly and will bend at a 45 degree angle when held with tongs).
• As the ribs smoke, combine the ketchup, hoisin sauce, garlic powder, ground ginger, soy sauce, rice wine vinegar, and honey in a bowl and stir to combine. Once the ribs are done smoking, brush the ginger-hoisin sauce on both sides, place the rack back on the grill bone side down, cover the grill, and allow them to cook for another 2-3 minutes until the sauce has set and become tacky. Remove the rack from the grill, slice, and serve.
• * For indirect cooking on the grill, place a water filled aluminum half pan in the center of the charcoal grate and place preheated charcoal briquets on each side of the pan. Set ribs directly above the water pan and adjust the vents according to the recipe.

• Open bottom barbecue vent. Turn out hot charcoal onto 1 half of bottom rack. Using metal spatula, spread charcoal to cover approximately 1/3 of rack. Fill foil loaf pan halfway with water and place opposite charcoal on bottom rack.
• Place top rack on barbecue. Arrange ribs on top rack above water in loaf pan. Cover barbecue with lid, positioning top vent directly over ribs. Place stem of candy thermometer through top vent, with gauge on outside and tip near ribs (thermometer should not touch meat or barbecue rack); leave in place during cooking. Use top and bottom vents to maintain temperature between 250°F and 300°F, opening vents wider to increase heat and closing to decrease heat. Leave any other vents closed. Check temperature every 10 minutes.
• Cook ribs until meat is very tender when pierced with knife, turning ribs and basting with reserved marinade every 20 minutes, about 1 hour 30 minutes total. Open barbecue only when necessary (to baste meat, for instance) and close quickly to minimize loss of heat and smoke. After first 30 minutes of cooking, use technique described earlier to light additional 15 charcoal briquettes in same charcoal chimney set atop nonflammable surface.
• If cooking temperature drops below 250°F, use oven mitts to lift off top rack with ribs and place on heatproof surface. Using tongs, add half of hot gray charcoal from chimney to bottom rack. Replace top rack on barbecue, placing ribs above water in loaf pan. Cover with lid.
• Transfer ribs to baking sheet; let stand 10 minutes. Cut meat between bones to separate ribs and serve.
