Source of Recipe


From "Every Day's a Party," by Emeril Lagasse






List of Ingredients



• One 3-pound slab country-style pork ribs
  
• One 3-1/2-pound slab pork spareribs
  
• 2 tsp salt
  
• 2 cups Steen's 100% Pure Cane Syrup, or other cane syrup
  
• 1/4 cup soy sauce
  
• 1/4 cup apple-cider vinegar
  
• 1/2 cup water
  
• 2 Tbsp sesame oil
  
• 1/4 cup minced yellow onion
  
• 2 Tbsp chopped garlic
  
• 2 Tbsp peeled and grated fresh ginger
  
• 1/2 tsp cayenne
  
• 1/4 tsp freshly ground black pepper
  






Instructions



1. Put the ribs in a very large soup pot or kettle. Add the salt and enough water to cover them. Bring to a boil, and let boil for 30 minutes. Remove from the heat and drain.
   
   
2. Whisk the remaining ingredients together in a medium-size mixing bowl, blending well. Put the ribs in a large, deep braising pan or plastic container and pour the marinade over them. Cover and refrigerate for 8 to 12 hours, turning the ribs in the marinade about every 4 hours.
   
   
3. Prepare the pit or grill. You should have a glowing red fire with light ash, and the temperature of the pit or grill should be between 225° and 275° F.
   
   
4. Put the ribs on the pit away from the fire. Cook, basting with the marinade and turning the ribs every 15 minutes, for about 2 hours. You may have to feed the fire eveery 30 minutes or so.
   
   
5. Remove the ribs from the pit and let cool for several minutes before slicing to serve.
   
   Makes about 6 servings.
