Grilled Short Ribs With Balsamic Sauce Recipes

GRILLED SHORT RIBS WITH BALSAMIC SAUCE

Steps:

• In 12x8-inch (2-quart) glass baking dish or large resealable food storage plastic bag, combine vinegar, apple juice, brown sugar, soy sauce, oil, dry mustard and pepper; mix well. Add ribs, turning to coat. Cover dish or seal bag. Refrigerate at least 8 hours or up to 24 hours to marinate.
• Heat gas or charcoal grill for indirect cooking as directed by manufacturer or see p. 40 (Kitchen Tip). When grill is heated, remove ribs from marinade; reserve and refrigerate marinade. Place ribs on grill directly over drip pan. Cover grill; cook 2 to 2 1/4 hours or until tender, turning occasionally.
• During last 30 minutes of cooking time, in small saucepan, combine reserved marinade and chili sauce; mix well. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low; simmer 20 to 30 minutes or until slightly thickened and reduced, stirring occasionally. (Sauce will be similar to syrup.) Serve sauce with ribs. Sprinkle ribs with parsley.

BALSAMIC SHORT RIBS

Steps:

• Heat a large, deep, heavy casserole dish over medium-high heat. Sprinkle the ribs with salt and pepper and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side or until well browned. Remove from the dish and set aside.
• Wipe the dish with absorbent paper, add the onion and garlic and cook for 5 minutes or until golden. Return the ribs to the dish with the oregano, vinegar, tomatoes, stock, salt and pepper, reduce the heat to low, cover and simmer for 2 1/2-3 hours or until the beef is very tender. Remove the ribs from the dish and keep warm.
• Strain the pan juices and skim the fat from the surface. Pour into a saucepan and simmer over high heat for 5-10 minutes or until the sauce has thickened.
• To make the basil gremolata, place the basil, lemon zest, garlic, oil, salt and pepper in a bowl and mix to combine.
• Divide the ribs among plates and spoon the sauce over. Top with the gremolata to serve.

BALSAMIC-GLAZED OVEN-BAKED RIBS

Steps:

• To prepare the ribs, heat the oven to 350 degrees. If the butcher has not removed the membrane on the back of each rack, gently pry it up by sliding a sharp implement (like the tip of an instant-read thermometer) under it, then lifting gently. Grab the membrane with a paper towel and peel it off.
• Spread a 24-inch sheet of heavy-duty aluminum foil, shiny side up, on a work surface. Place one rack on top, rub it all over with oil, and generously season both sides with salt. Place 2 parsley sprigs and 2 garlic cloves under the concave side of the rack and 2 thyme sprigs on top. Wrap the ribs in the foil, pleating the edges to seal well. Repeat with the second rack. Place the rib packets in a large roasting pan.
• Roast the ribs for 30 minutes, then reduce the temperature to 250 degrees. Cook 1 1/2 to 2 hours more, until the meat has shrunk back from the ends of the bones by 1/4 to 1/2 inch and the ribs are tender enough to pull apart with your fingers.
• Meanwhile, prepare the barbecue sauce. Place the balsamic vinegar in a large nonreactive saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium heat and cook until reduced by a third. Add the remaining barbecue sauce ingredients with 1/4 cup water, bring back to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and simmer until thick, 30 to 40 minutes. If the sauce starts to thicken too much, add a little water. The sauce should be highly seasoned; adjust to taste by adding vinegar, brown sugar or salt.
• Remove the ribs from the oven and let cool briefly, then open the foil, being careful of the escaping steam. Transfer the ribs to a baking sheet. Turn on the broiler or raise the oven to 450 degrees.
• Slather the ribs on both sides with the barbecue sauce. Broil the ribs until the sauce sizzles and browns, 2 to 4 minutes on each side. Alternatively, bake in the oven 8 to 12 minutes. Baste with the barbecue sauce and serve at once with any remaining sauce on the side.
