Miso Pork Ribs With Chile Honey Glaze Recipes

CHILI-GLAZED PORK RIBS

Steps:

• Make shallow cuts between the ribs on the bone side with a sharp knife, piercing just the membrane.
• Mix 1 tablespoon salt, the brown sugar, garlic, thyme, chili powder, 1/4 teaspoon black pepper and the cayenne in a bowl. Rub the spice mixture evenly over the ribs. Place the ribs on a rack in a roasting pan, loosely cover and refrigerate at least 4 hours or overnight.
• Meanwhile, combine the cider, ketchup, mustard and Worcestershire sauce in a saucepan over medium heat and simmer until reduced to about 2 cups, about 30 minutes. Cover and set aside.
• Preheat a grill to low heat on one side. Cook the ribs bone-side down on the cooler side of the grill, covered, until tender, about 2 hours 30 minutes. (If using a charcoal grill, add more charcoal as needed to maintain the temperature.) Continue to cook, uncovering every 10 minutes to baste with the sauce, until the ribs are glazed, about 40 more minutes. Remove from the grill and cut into pieces.

MISO PORK RIBS WITH CHILE-HONEY GLAZE

Steps:

• Place racks in upper and lower thirds of oven; preheat to 300°F. Pat ribs dry with paper towels. Sprinkle evenly on all sides with mushroom powder, patting to adhere, then rub miso all over to lightly and evenly coat. Wrap each rack in a double layer of foil, crimping edges to seal. Divide foil packets between 2 rimmed baking sheets (2 packets per sheet) and bake until meat is fork-tender at the thickest part but not falling off the bones, 2-2½ hours. Let cool slightly, then unwrap.
• While the ribs are baking, heat oil and chiles in a medium saucepan over medium-low, stirring often, until chiles darken in color a few shades and are fragrant, about 3 minutes. Add onion and salt and continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until onion is softened and translucent, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and ginger and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add gochujang, tamari, and vinegar and cook until thickened slightly, about 5 minutes. Remove pan from heat and stir in honey.
• Transfer mixture to a blender and purée until smooth and slightly glossy. Pour glaze into a small bowl or airtight container and let cool.
• Heat broiler. Line a clean rimmed baking sheet with foil and lightly coat with nonstick spray. Cut each rack in half (this will allow you to puzzle all the ribs onto the sheet) and arrange, meaty side up, in a single layer on prepared baking sheet; brush with glaze. Broil ribs until glaze is set and slightly darkened in color (watch them closely so that the glaze doesn't burn), about 4 minutes.
• Transfer ribs to a platter and top with scallions and fried shallots (if using).
• Do Ahead: Sauce can be made 5 days ahead; cover and chill. Ribs can be baked 2 days ahead; let cool, then wrap tightly in plastic and place in an airtight container. Cover and chill.

HONEY GARLIC RIBS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Slice the ribs into individual pieces. In a large bowl, combine the honey, soy sauce, vinegar, garlic and brown sugar. Stir until honey and sugar are completely dissolved, then stir in the baking soda. The mixture will begin to foam. Transfer ribs to the bowl, and turn to coat.
• Cover a cookie sheet with foil, and arrange the ribs meat side up on the sheet. Pour excess sauce over all, and sprinkle with the garlic salt.
• Bake for 1 hour, turning every 20 minutes.

GRILLED PORK BELLY WITH SOY-MIRIN GLAZE

Steps:

• Cut pork belly into pieces about 3-inches square. Thinly slice each piece into squares no more than 1/4-inch thick. (Partly freezing the pork belly will make it easier to slice.)
• Combine soy sauce, mirin, salt and pepper to taste in a bowl. Place pork in the bowl, cover and refrigerate 30 minutes but preferably overnight.
• In a small saucepan, bring stock to a simmer. Add mushrooms, turn off heat and steep 30 minutes. Strain out mushrooms, and save for other use. Add honey and 1 tablespoon sesame oil to the stock. Simmer 10 to 15 minutes, until reduced by half. Whisk in cornstarch mixture and cook a few minutes longer, until thickened. Remove from heat, transfer to a bowl, cover and refrigerate until ready to use.
• Remove pork from refrigerator. Heat a grill or grill pan and brush with vegetable oil. Place pork slices on grill and cook, turning every 4 minutes or so, until well seared and caramelized at the edges, about 20 minutes' total cooking time. Add remaining sesame oil to the marinade, add the squash, set aside 5 minutes, then place on the grill, turning, until cooked through, about 15 minutes.
• Arrange pork and squash on a platter. Heat glaze and brush on pork and squash. Sprinkle with scallions and sesame seeds and serve.

MISO BRAISED PORK

Steps:

• Heat canola oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat until hot. Sear pork slices until well browned on both sides, then remove. Stir in the garlic and ginger, cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add the water, soy sauce, brown sugar, and miso; bring to a simmer, scraping the bottom of the pan to dissolve the caramelized juices.
• Place pork into pot, add additional water if needed to cover pork with the sauce. Then, reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer for 3 hours until the pork is tender, and the sauce has thickened.

HONEY-GARLIC PORK RIBS

Steps:

• Cut ribs into serving-size pieces; place in a large resealable plastic bag. Combine remaining ingredients; pour half the marinade over the ribs. Seal bag and turn to coat; refrigerate for several hours or overnight, turning bag occasionally. Cover and refrigerate remaining marinade. , Drain and discard marinade from ribs. Place ribs on a rack in a greased shallow baking pan. Cover and bake at 350° for 1 hour. Drain. Pour reserved marinade over ribs. Bake, uncovered, for 30-45 minutes or until meat is tender, brushing occasionally with pan juices.

HONEY-GLAZED BABY PORK RIBS

Steps:

• Make the marinade by mixing the ingredients together in a flat deep pan. Add the pork ribs, cover, and refrigerate at least two hours or overnight.

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
• Roast the ribs in a flat pan for one hour and 15 minutes, until tender and cooked through. The ribs may be finished over a charcoal grill or heated in a wok with a little peanut oil and a sprinkling of sugar. Toss the ribs with the sauce in the wok, or serve on a platter with the sauce on top. Garnish with thinly sliced scallions.
