Tequila Pork Ribs

By Derrick Riches, About.com

What could be better than the mixture of tender barbecue pork ribs in a pineapple tequila sauce?

Prep Time: 15 minutes

Cook Time: 1 hour, 30 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 6 pounds pork spareribs
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, ground
  • For Tequila Barbecue Sauce:
  • 1 (12-ounce) can frozen pineapple juice, concentrate
  • 1 (6-ounce) can tomato paste
  • 1 cup tequila
  • 1/4 cup lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons distilled white vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon Tabasco (or more if preferred)

Preparation:

Rinse ribs and pat dry. Season with salt and pepper. Preheat grill for high heat. Place ribs on grill and cook for ten minutes. Move ribs to indirect heat. Meanwhile, combine ingredients for barbecue sauce in a large saucepan. Bring mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring often, about 20 minutes. Remove sauce from heat and baste tops of ribs generously with sauce. Turn over and cook for 20 minutes. Baste other side of ribs generously with sauce; turn over grill for 30 minutes. Serve ribs with reserved sauce.
