How To Make barbecued spareribs

  • Step 1
    Preheat oven to 250.
  • Step 2
    Salt and pepper the pork ribs evenly and place in a baking dish and cook for 2 hours to render the fat and tenderize the meat.
  • Step 3
    Remove the ribs from the dish, drain the fat and set aside.
  • Step 4
    Heat a wok or large frying pan and add the oil.
  • Step 5
    Quickly add the shallots, scallions, ginger and garlic.
  • Step 6
    Stir-fry for 20 seconds and add the rest of the sauce ingredients.
  • Step 7
    Reduce the heat and simmer the sauce gently for 15 minutes.
  • Step 8
    Allow the sauce to cool. (These steps can be done hours ahead or even the night before.)
  • Step 9
    When you are ready to cook the ribs, smear them with the barbecue sauce.
  • Step 10
    Make a charcoal fire and, when the coals are ash white, grill the ribs, basting with any remaining sauce.
  • Step 11
    Cook the ribs for 5 to 10 minutes on each side, depending on thickness.
  • Step 12
    SUBSTITUTIONS: May use satay paste in place of Chinese chili bean sauce.
