How to cook Sweet and sour pork ribs

Step 1

Cut the ribs into portions, season with salt and pepper, put in a ziplock bag, drizzle with vegetable oil, leave for at least 1 hour.

Step 2

Prepare the sauce: peel and chop the onion and garlic as finely as possible, put in a saucepan or frying pan, sprinkle with vegetable oil and simmer a little over low heat.

Step 3

Pour vinegar and pineapple juice into the onion, add allspice and 0.5 tsp. salt, bring to a boil, cook over low heat until the volume is reduced by 1/3.

Step 4

Kindle the coals in the brazier - they should burn out well and be covered with gray ash. Heat the grate, grease. Place the ribs on the wire rack and cook, turning once every 1 minute, 10 minutes.

Step 5

Take a silicone brush with a long handle and start to grease the ribs with sauce (a small amount so that it does not drip onto the coals). Fry the ribs for another 10-15 minutes, turning and brushing them about every 2 minutes. Serve hot with a green salad.

Sweet and sour pork ribs - FAQ About Ingredients, Baking Time and Storage

Can I use a different type of vinegar for the sweet and sour sauce?

Yes, you can substitute apple cider vinegar or rice vinegar for the regular vinegar. They will offer a slightly milder flavor profile.

What can I use if I don't have pineapple juice?

If you don't have pineapple juice, you can use orange juice or a mixture of apple juice and a small amount of lemon juice to replicate the sweetness and tanginess.

How long can I store leftover sweet and sour pork ribs?

Leftover ribs can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days. Ensure they cool completely before storing.

Can I freeze the cooked sweet and sour pork ribs?

Yes, you can freeze the cooked ribs. Allow them to cool completely, then wrap them tightly in plastic wrap and place them in a freezer bag. They can be frozen for up to 2-3 months. Thaw completely in the refrigerator before reheating.

What's the best way to reheat the ribs without drying them out?

Reheat the ribs in the oven at 325°F (160°C) covered with foil until heated through, or in a skillet over medium heat with a splash of water or broth to keep them moist. You can also microwave, but this method is more prone to drying them out.

Can I make this recipe in the oven if I don't have a grill?

Absolutely! Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Place the marinated ribs on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or foil and bake for 20-25 minutes, then brush with the sweet and sour sauce and bake for another 10-15 minutes, or until cooked through and glazed. Turn them and brush several times.

How can I adjust the level of sweetness or sourness in the sauce?

To make the sauce sweeter, add a tablespoon of honey or brown sugar. For a more sour flavor, increase the amount of vinegar slightly.

What are some good side dishes to serve with sweet and sour pork ribs?

Sweet and sour pork ribs pair well with rice, noodles, stir-fried vegetables, coleslaw, or a fresh green salad.
