Spicy Honey Glazed Baby Pork Ribs Recipes

SPICED HONEY-GLAZED RIBS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325˚ and set a wire rack on a rimmed baking sheet.
• Put the cumin and coriander seeds in a resealable plastic bag and crush with a heavy skillet. Transfer to a bowl and add the brown sugar, paprika and red pepper flakes. Season the ribs generously with salt and pepper, rub all over with the vegetable oil, then rub all over with the spice mixture, pressing to adhere. Transfer the ribs meat-side up to the rack.
• Stir together the honey and vinegar in a small bowl. Bake the ribs, rotating the baking sheet after 45 minutes, until well browned, 1 hour 30 minutes to 1 hour 45 minutes. Brush half of the honey mixture on both sides of the ribs and bake 15 more minutes, then brush with the remaining honey mixture and continue baking until the ribs are deeply browned and tender, about 15 more minutes. Transfer the ribs to a cutting board and let cool slightly before carving.

SPICY HONEY-GLAZED BABY PORK RIBS (WOLFGANG PUCK)

Steps:

• In a bowl, mix together the ingredients except for the ribs. Place the ribs in a container large enough to hold them, one slab on top of another, and pour the marinade over the meat. Cover and let it marinate in the refrigerator overnight.
• Preheat the oven to 300°F and pour half the marinade in a baking pan. Add the ribs and bake turning frequently for the next 2 hours or until the meat is tender.
• Under a preheated broiler or on a wood fired grill, glaze ribs for 3-4 minutes per side. Watch carefully to avoid burning.
• Remove ribs and cut each side into individual pieces. Arrange overlapping on plates or on a platter and spoon the warm marinade over the meat.

SPICY BABY BACK RIBS

Steps:

• Combine the paprika, anchos or chile powder, cumin and salt in a small bowl. Pat the spice mixture all over the ribs. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate 2 to 4 hours or overnight.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
• Place the ribs in a single layer in a baking pan and pour in water to a depth of about 1/4-inch. Bake, uncovered, 45 minutes. Cover with foil and return to the oven for an additional 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, make the honey glaze by combining the garlic, jalapenos, cumin, Tabasco, lime juice and salt in a food processor or blender and puree. Pour into a small saucepan and stir in the honey. Cook over low heat, stirring constantly and being careful not to burn, 20 minutes.
• Turn the oven heat up to 450 degrees or heat the grill.
• If finishing the ribs in the oven, brush generously with the honey glaze and bake another 10 minutes per side, basting with the honey glaze every 5 minutes. To grill, generously glaze the ribs and grill 5 minutes per side, frequently brushing with additional glaze. Cut the ribs apart and serve hot.
