Country Style Pork Ribs are perfect for barbecue. There are hundreds of country-style recipes, this is my favorite. There is no secret to cooking pork and there is no way to guarantee that the skin will go crispy and crunchy when you cook it. I never put anything on the skin and rely on heat alone to crisp it up.
Ingredients
- 5 pounds (2250 grams) pork country-style ribs
- 2 cups brown sugar
- 4 Tbsp paprika
- 1 can (28 oz)(750 grams)apricots (whole or halved)
- 1 Tbsp grated lemon peel (be careful to only grate the yellow)
- 2 Tbsp Salt
Instructions
Cut ribs in serving sized pieces; place ribs in shallow glass dish.
Drain apricots, reserving juice. Pour juice over ribs; marinate for 20 minutes.
In bowl, combine sugar, lemon peel, paprika and salt.
Remove ribs from juice and place on waxed paper; coat ribs generously with sugar mixture.
Place ribs on grill 6 to 8 inches above grey-white coals.
Cook ribs 30 minutes on covered grill or 60 minutes on open grill.
Turn ribs frequently.
Place apricots on ribs during last 10 minutes of cooking time.
Place ribs on platter, garnished with apricots.
Serves 6
These ribs are enhanced when served with a glass of cold unwooded Chardonnay
