Jerk Pork Spareribs Recipes

Steps:

• Prepare a smoker for cooking between 250 and 275 degrees F. Trim the excess fat from the spareribs and cut out any sharp or cracked bones. Remove or score any silver skin.
• Liberally rub the ribs with Sawdust Rub, shaking off the excess. Place the ribs in the smoker and cook, spritzing with apple juice every 30 minutes, until the fat starts to render from the surface of the ribs, about 3 hours.
• Spritz a piece of heavy-duty foil with some apple juice and drizzle with about 3 tablespoons Original BBQ Sauce. Arrange the ribs on the foil, meaty-side down, and fold the foil on the ribs so that steam can escape but the juices are trapped inside. (If you multiply this recipe to do multiple racks, make sure each rack gets its own foil packet.) Put back in the smoker meaty-side down. Smoke until the meat pulls back from the bones by about 3/8 inch, another 1 to 1 1/2 hours. Let rest for 30 minutes, then slice into ribs.
• Mix together the salt, pepper, brown sugar, paprika, chili powder, granulated garlic, granulated onion and cayenne in a bowl and break up any clumps by hand.
• Combine the ketchup, vinegar, Worcestershire, molasses, brown sugar, hot sauce and lemon juice together in a large pot and whisk until blended. Place over medium heat and bring to a simmer, then add the chili powder, granulated garlic, onion powder, salt, pepper and cayenne. Continue to simmer 30 to 45 minutes, stirring occasionally to keep from burning.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 300. Place the scallions, onions, garlic and peppers into a food processor with a pinch of salt, and pulse to mince.
• Add the spices, sugar and soy sauce, and blend for 15 to 20 seconds. Add the rum, and pulse to combine. Add water to thin the marinade, approximately 1/4 cup. Refrigerate for 30 minutes or until ready to use. (Covered tightly, the marinade will keep for a few days in the refrigerator.)
• Slide the handle of a wooden spoon, or the edge of a butter knife, below the membrane on the back of each rack of ribs, and then use your fingers to grab it and pull it off. Season the ribs aggressively with salt and pepper.
• Place each rack of ribs on a large sheet of aluminum foil, and slather with the jerk marinade. Wrap the ribs tightly in the foil, and place on a sheet pan in the oven for 90 minutes.
• Remove the sheet pan from the oven, carefully unwrap the ribs and anoint again with the jerk marinade. Return the ribs, uncovered, to the oven, and continue roasting for an additional 90 minutes, or until the meat is crusty and has just begun to pull back from the bone. Remove ribs from oven, allow to rest 5 minutes, then slice into individual ribs and serve on a warmed platter.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C).
• Combine rum, lime juice, and brown sugar in a small bowl; set aside. Mix together black pepper, sea salt, allspice, cinnamon, thyme, cayenne pepper, and cloves in a small bowl.
• Place rib tips in a resealable plastic bag and pour 1/2 of the spice mixture over them. Shake bag to coat evenly. Pour remaining spice mixture into the bag, reseal, and shake again to coat all pieces.
• Remove rib tips from bag and place on a baking sheet. Reserve lime juice marinade for basting.
• Bake in the preheated oven until meat pulls slightly away from bone, about 1 hour and 20 minutes, basting with lime juice marinade every 20 minutes.
