I had a shipment of Kurobuta Spare Ribs arrive from Snake River Farms yesterday http://www.snakeriverfarms.com/kurobuta-pork/ribs/kurobuta-spare-ribs.html. I wanted to try something totally different so I decided to try to make some Asian sticky ribs.
I brined the ribs overnight in a mixture of apple juice, soy sauce, garlic and ginger. Rinsed them and coated them with EVOO, SPOG and tossed them on the UDS
While they were doing their thing, I mixed up a batch of Asian BBQ sauce using ketchup, soy sauce, hoisin sauce, garlic, ginger and brown sugar. Let it reduce until it was thick and syrupy like Black Gold. Yes that's a Mickey Mouse cup in the background :roll:
Once the ribs probed tender I coated them with the sauce and let them glaze. Here is what they looked like coming off the smoker
Sliced them and topped them with sesame seeds
They were the perfect texture - bite thru tender
These DID NOT suck. The flavor and texture of the SRF ribs was amazing! The rich, decadent flavor of the pork paired perfectly with the sauce which had a sweet, salty, earthy flavor.
Next time I do these I will let the sauce reduce even more as they weren't as sticky as I was hoping for. I will also add some spice to the sauce for some kick.
Thanks for looking!
