Ingredients
- 6 pounds beef ribs or your favorite ribs
AMAZING GLAZE
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1/2 cup chopped yellow onion
- 6 cloves garlic — finely minced
- 2 tablespoons minced fresh thyme leaves
- 2 cups dry red wine
- 1 1/2 cups ketchup
- 1/4 cup Heinz 57 Sauce
- 3 tablespoons brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons dark sesame oil
- 2 tablespoons chile powder
- 1 tablespoon molasses
- 1 tablespoon dried oregano
- 1 tablespoon paprika
- 1/2 tablespoon dried sage
- 1/2 tablespoon Tabasco sauce
Method
- Place the ribs, meaty side down, on a flat surface.
- Using your fingernail, loosen a little of the membrane along the end of the last rib bone.
- Then, grasp the membrane firmly with a paper towel (so that the membrane doesn’t slip from your grip).
- Holding the ribs down with the other hand, pull the membrane away.
- If it doesn’t pull away in one piece, dislodge any remaining membrane, grip it with a paper towel, and pull the membrane away.
- Then place the ribs in a rectangular dish or baking pan.
- To make the glaze, add the olive oil and onion to a 2 1/2 quart saucepan.
- Place the saucepan over medium-low heat and cook until the onion becomes translucent, about 10 minutes.
- Add the garlic and saute for 30 seconds.
- Add all the remaining ingredients.
- Bring to a low boil, cover and decrease the heat to a simmer.
- Allow the glaze to simmer for 20 minutes.
- Then remove the lid, turn the heat to high, and boil the glaze until only 3 cups remain.
- Transfer the glaze to a bowl and allow it to cool to room temperature.
- Coat the ribs evenly on both sides with half the glaze.
- Marinate the ribs, refrigerated, for at least 15 minutes.
- For more flavor; marinate for up to 8 hours.
- Reserve the remaining glaze to serve as a sauce for the ribs.
- If using a gas barbecue, preheat it to medium (325F).
- If using charcoal or wood, prepare a fire.
- When the coals or wood are ash covered, push them to the outside of the grill.
- Place a pan of water in the bottom of the grill among the coals, and cover the coals with the cooking grate.
- Place a rib rack on the cooking grate and add the ribs.
- Alternatively, brush the cooking grate with a flavorless cooking oil, such as safflower oil, and then lay the ribs meaty side up in the center of the grill.
- Cover the grill.
- Regulate the heat so it remains at a medium temperature.
- Occasionally during cooking, baste the ribs with extra marinade.
- Grill the ribs until the meat begins to shrink from the ends of the rib bones.
Approximate Grilling Times.pork baby back ribs and country-style spareribs, 75 minutes; spareribs and beef ribs, 90 minutes; lamb ribs, 40 minutes.
- Occasionally during cooking, baste the ribs with the marinade, stopping 15 minutes before removing the ribs from the grill.
- To serve, cut each side of ribs in half, into 3 sections, or into individual ribs.
- Transfer to a heated serving platter or 4 heated dinner plates and serve at once, accompanied by the reserved sauce.
