Asian Barbecue Ribs
Steps
- 1. In a Robot Coupe or Cuisinart, blend the garlic, ginger, and shallot until it is minced together.
- 2. In a bowl, whisk together the fish sauce, soy sauce, rice vinegar, and hoisin.
- 3. In a saucepot, heat up the sugar until it makes a deep caramel. Be careful not to let it burn.
- 4. Slowly add the liquid mixture. Be careful, because it will bubble up. Once the caramel melts back into the liquid, add the shallot, garlic, ginger mixture, and the five-spice.
- 5. Cook the sauce on medium-low for approximately 20 minutes. Set aside and allow to cool.
- 6. Now, prepare the ribs. Preheat oven to 300° F degrees. Season the ribs with salt, pepper, and five-spice.
- 7. Tightly cover the ribs with aluminum foil. Cook in the oven for 2 ½ to 3 hours, or until fork tender. Let the ribs cool.
- 8. Marinate the ribs in the BBQ sauce.
- 9. Make the Asian slaw by mixing all ingredients together. Mix the dressing to incorporate.
- 10. Grill the ribs while constantly basting with the BBQ. At this point, the ribs are already cooked so you are really re-heating them on the grill and getting that nice, smoky flavor.
- 11. Garnish with the cilantro, scallions, and crispy garlic. Enjoy.
