Country-Style Ribs with Peach Ginger Glaze

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.

Country-style ribs are often overlooked by alot of people.  Most people think they require a long slow braise and I use them in that respect as well for some dishes.  But most people don’t realize that whether they’re cut from the Boston butt or the blade end of the loin, they are perfect for marinating and grilling over direct heat.

For slow braising I usually buy them boneless, but for grilling I prefer bone-in; it gives me something to hold on to while ripping into them.  This recipe results in tender ribs that are both sweet and savory and are sure to please.  Enjoy!

I started by quickly wiping about 4 pounds of country-style pork ribs with paper towels to remove any bone fragments when they were cut.

In a small bowl I combined 2 teaspoons each of curry powder and smoked paprika, 1 teaspoon New Mexico chile powder (or any mild), 1/2 teaspoon each of ground cumin, dried thyme and garlic powder, 1/4 teaspoon each of cayenne and allspice, 1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt, 2 teaspoons apple cider vinegar and 2 tablespoons olive oil.  This will make just enough to rub over the ribs.

I placed the ribs in a large glass pan and smeared the ribs with the marinade turning them to make sure they were thoroughly coated.  Like I noted before, there will be just enough to coat them.  I covered them with plastic and let them sit in the fridge for 8 hours but they can go 24 hours if you like.

While the ribs were marinating I got going on the glaze/sauce.  In a small pot I combined 1 jar (18oz) peach preserves, 3 teaspoons fresh grated ginger, juice from 1 lime, 1/3 cup chili sauce (Heinz), 2 teaspoons dijon mustard and 1 tablespoon brown sugar and let it simmer over medium low for about 10 minutes to combine the flavors then removed it from the heat until ready to use.

I took the ribs out of the fridge and let them rest for 30 mins at room temperature.  I heated my grill to medium high and cooked the ribs for about 5 minutes per side.  I brushed them with the peach glaze and grilled them for another 3 minutes on each side until they were done medium well (very slightly pink) then removed them to a platter and brushed them with the glaze again.

And this is what you end up with.  Insanely good ribs!  Enjoy!
