Koninginnedag BBQ Pork Ribs
Christening of Peter’s new bbq in Delft took place on Queen’s Day, which is the national holiday here in Holland. I decided to make the some ribs for the occasion.
I just tried a recipe from the internet that wasn’t too involved and tweaked it a bit. I put some Old Bay seasoning in there, but I don’t think it really adds anything, so I’d say skip it. Also next time I think I’d try molasses instead fo sugar. Also this amount of hot sauce seems to be about right – definitely a bite to it, but not overpowering. At any rate they came out delicious. The picture on the right is how they came out.
Ingredients
4 pounds pork spareribs
1 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup ketchup
1/4 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup Worcestershire sauce
1/4 cup Kentucky bourbon
1/4 cup chili sauce (Cholula)
2 cloves garlic, crushed
2 teaspoons Old Bay Seasoning (Actually, after trying this, I wouldn’t bother with it)
1 dash ground black pepper
1 dash HP (or A1) sauce
Directions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Cut spareribs into serving size portions, wrap in double thickness of foil, and bake for 1 1/2 hours.
Unwrap, and drain drippings. Place ribs in a large roasting pan.
In a bowl, mix together the above ingredients for the sauce. Coat ribs with sauce and marinate at room temperature for 1 hour, or refrigerate overnight.
Preheat grill for medium heat. Position grate four inches above heat source.
Brush grill grate with oil. Place ribs on grill, and cook for 30 minutes, basting with marinade.
