This can also be made using pork steaks, just brown firstly in a skillet then bake in oven with the sauce until tender, cooking time will need to be adjusted slightly. The sauce may be made up to 2 days ahead and refrigerated, if you prefer more sauce then double the amounts :) Ingredients:
3 -4 lbs pork spareribs |
salt and black pepper |
3 -4 tablespoons butter |
1 onion, chopped |
1 -2 tablespoon fresh minced garlic |
1 stalk celery, finely diced |
1/2 teaspoon dried red chili pepper flakes (optional or to taste) |
1 cup ketchup |
1 cup water |
1/3 cup lemon juice |
2 tablespoons cider vinegar (or use white vinegar) |
2 -4 tablespoons brown sugar |
1 tablespoon worcestershire sauce |
1/2 teaspoon mustard powder |
1/2-1 teaspoon seasoning salt (or to taste) |
1 teaspoon fresh coarse ground black pepper (or to taste) |
Directions:
1. Cut the ribs into serving-size pieces.
2. Season the ribs lightly with salt and black pepper.
3. Place the ribs on a rack in foil-lined baking sheet (or use the same roasting pan that you will be cooking the ribs in with the sauce).
4. Bake uncovered at 350°F for 1 hour.
5. Meanwhile while the ribs are cooking; in a saucepan heat butter over medium heat.
6. Add in onion, garlic and celery and chili flakes (if using) saute for about 3-4 minutes or until tender.
7. Add in all remaining ingredients; bring to a simmer over medium-high heat, stirring.
8. Reduce heat to low and simmer uncovered for about 25-35 minutes.
9. Adjust the salt and black pepper if needed.
10. Grease a large roasting pan ( if the ribs were cooked in the roasting pan you will need to drain the fat before adding in the sauce).
11. Place the ribs into the roasting pan then pour the sauce over the ribs.
12. Bake for about 1-1/2 hours at 350°F or until the ribs are tender.
