Servings: 6
Ingredients:
Ribs
* 2 quarts beef broth
* 1/4 cup red wine vinegar
* 2 teaspoons ground cumin
* 1 teaspoon garlic powder
* 2 tablespoons tomato paste
* 1 tablespoon molasses
* 1 teaspoon salt
* 3 pounds baby back pork ribs
Sauce
* 1/2 cup chili sauce
* 1/4 cup honey
* 1/2 cup ketchup
* 2 tablespoons steak sauce
* 1/4 cup orange juice
* 2 tablespoons tomato paste
* 1 tablespoon garlic, crushed
* 2 teaspoons paprika
* 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
* 1/2 teaspoon dried mustard
Directions:
Prepare the ribs: Combine all ingredients, except for the ribs, in a large stock pot or Dutch oven. Heat just to simmering and then add the ribs. Simmer the ribs for 1 hour, until just tender. Carefully remove from the liquid and let cool slightly on a baking sheet.
To make the barbecue sauce, combine all the ingredients and mix well. Place the ribs and sauce in a large plastic zip-top bag. Remove as much air as possible and seal. Turn to coat the ribs and refrigerate for 1 hour and up to 4 hours.
Remove the ribs from the bag and reserve the sauce. Heat a grill to medium high, or heat the broiler. Grill or broil the ribs 4 to 6 inches from the heat source for 10 minutes or until cooked through.
