Servings: 6
Prep Time: 30 minutes
Cook Time: 3 hours
Total Time: 3 hours, 30 minutes
Ingredients
- 5 lbs. of Beef Back Ribs
Marinade
- 1/2 cup ketchup
- 1/3 cup Dijon-style mustard
- 1/3 cup hoisin sauce
- 1/4 cup finely chopped jalapeno pepper
- 2 tablespoons minced ginger
- 2 tablespoons water
- 2 tablespoons packed brown sugar
Directions
- Make the Marinade: Combine ketchup, mustard, hoisin, jalapeño pepper, ginger, and water in a small bowl; whisk until blended. Reserve 1/2 cup of the marinade for basting; add brown sugar and set aside.
- Place beef Ribs in a shallow pan or an extra-large food-safe plastic bag; add the remaining marinade. Turn to coat. Cover the pan tightly or close the bag securely; marinate the ribs in the refrigerator for 1 to 4 hours, turning occasionally. Remove the ribs from the marinade and discard it.
- Prepare the charcoal grill for indirect cooking by igniting an equal number of charcoal briquets on each side of the fire grate, leaving an open space in the center. When the coals are medium and ash-covered (25 to 30 minutes), add 3 to 4 new briquets to each side. Position the cooking grid with handles over the coals so additional briquets may be added when necessary.
- Place ribs, meat side up, in a large foil roasting pan (around 16" x 12" x 3") and cover tightly with aluminum foil.
- Place foil pan on cooking grid, cover with grill lid, and grill over medium heat for 1 to 1 1/2 hours or until ribs are fork-tender.
- Carefully remove the roasting pan from the grill. Remove the ribs from the pan and place them, meat side up, on the grill rack. Baste the ribs with the reserved marinade. Grill the ribs, covered, for 10 to 15 minutes, turning and basting occasionally.
- Sprinkle ribs with cilantro, if desired. Serve with Asian greens and vegetables.
