HAPPY MEMORIAL DAY WEEKEND: BBQ Pork Ribs Recipe & 3-Day Forecast!





Ingredients:

2 pounds maple sugar
1/4 cup salt
2 tablespoons paprika
1/4 cup freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons fresh thyme leaves
4 cloves garlic, minced
2 lemons, zested
1/4 cup olive oil
4 (3 pound) racks of pork spareribs


Cooking Directions:
  1. Combine sugar, salt, paprika, pepper, thyme, garlic, and zest; spread on a sheet pan; let stand at room temperature overnight so sugar will be hard and dry. Grind in food processor to fine powder.

  2. Brush ribs with oil; lightly coat with sugar mixture.

  3. Preheat grill or grill pan to medium hot; grill ribs, fat side down first, until meat is just coming off the bone, 20 to 30 minutes per side. Cool slightly. Slice into individual ribs, and serve.
    Yield: 16 servings

Still Hungry:

Maple sugar, which is available at specialty-food stores, adds a distinctive taste to this dish, but light-brown sugar can be substituted.
