Apple Spiced Pork Ribs Recipes

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine the first 10 ingredients. Pour 1-1/2 cups marinade into a large resealable plastic bag. Add pork; seal bag and turn to coat. Refrigerate 5 hours or overnight. Cover and refrigerate remaining marinade for basting., Prepare grill for indirect heat. Drain pork, discarding marinade in bag. Grill ribs, covered, over indirect medium heat for 10 minutes on each side. Baste with some of the reserved marinade. Grill 20-25 minutes longer or until ribs are tender, turning and basting occasionally. Freeze option: Freeze cooled ribs in heavy-duty foil. To use, partially thaw in refrigerator overnight. Place foil packet on a baking sheet and open packet. Reheat in a preheated 350° oven for 20-30 minutes or until heated through.

Steps:

• Sprinkle ribs with salt and pepper. In 3 1/2- to 4-quart slow cooker, place ribs. Cover with onion slices. In small bowl, mix remaining ingredients; pour over ribs and onion.
• Cover; cook on Low heat setting 8 to 10 hours.
• Remove ribs from cooker; place on serving platter. Cover to keep warm.
• Pour juices from cooker through strainer into 1-quart saucepan. Heat to boiling over medium-high heat; reduce heat to medium. Cook about 5 minutes or until sauce has slightly thickened. Serve sauce with ribs.

Steps:

• Cut ribs into serving-size pieces; sprinkle with salt and pepper. Place ribs, meat side up, on a broiler pan. Broil 4-in. from the heat for 5-7 minutes or until browned., Place onion in a 5- or 6-qt. slow cooker; top with ribs. In a small bowl, combine the remaining ingredients; pour over ribs. Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours or until meat is tender., Remove meat to a serving platter; keep warm. Skim fat from cooking juices; transfer to a small saucepan.

Steps:

• Mix rub ingredients and store in air tight container. Recommend making a triple batch so you'll have some for later.
• Remove membrane from bone side of ribs. Rub ribs generously with rub, wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate over night.
• Remove wrap from ribs and bring to room temperature. Re-season with rub.
• Bring grill/smoker up to around 200 degrees F. Using indirect heat, smoke ribs for 5-7 hours. Turn and baste with mop every hour.
• For the finishing sauce, combine all ingredients in a sauce pan and bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer for one hour.
• For the smoke, use apple wood chips soaked in water. Keep the temperature as close to 200 as possible.
• Apply finishing sauce during the last hour--careful not to burn. Ribs are done when about 3/8 inch of bones are exposed and the rib bones come loose from the meat when twisted.
• Remove from heat, re-season with rub mixture, and let sit for at least 30 min prior to cutting into 2-rib portions.

Steps:

• Preliminaries: Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
