Tangy Sweet & Sticky Grilled Pork Ribs

Serves 2 as Main Dishor 5 as Appetizer.

These ribs fill the desire for a tender meat falling from the bone drenched in a tangy satisfying barbecue sauce. The ribs are first simmered with herbs, then sumberged into a tangy marinade with red wine that is finally thickened and painted back on the ribs for a tangy, sticky sauce. Finished under the broiler or grill, or on the barbeque. Very little actual work.

Ingredients below are noted per person, multiply to make as much as you want at a time.

• 250 g Pork ribs, seperated
  
• 1 small onion pierced with 2 cloves
  
• 2 T Herbes de Provence, dried
  
• 888 Marinade, per person:
  
• 1 c red wine
  
• 1/3 c catsup
  
• 2 T dark Chinese vinegar
  
• 1 T soy sauce
  
• garlic
  
• 2 T brown sugar
  
• 1/3 c vegetable oil
  
• 888 Marinade additions to make sauce:
  
• 2 t. corn starch
  
• s & p, extra sugar as desired
  

Simmer the ribs with the herbs. Cover the ribs with tap water and add herbs and onion. Bring to a rolling boil, and reduce heat to a slow simmer. Simmer on the stovetop for one hour, or in the crock pot on low for up to 4 hours. They are ready to come out when the meat is tender.

Marinate the ribs. Mix all marinade ingredients in a large flat pan or plastic container. Place the ribs in the marinade and turn occaisionally. Marinate from 2 hours to one day.

Make the sauce and Grill, Broil, or BBQ the ribs. Drain the ribs, reserving their marinade. Mix the corn starch with a little bit of water. Add the corn starch to the marinade, and mix well. Coat the ribs with the marinade / corn starch mix and put them 2-3 inches from a high heat source, under the broiler or grill, or on the BBQ. The sauce on the surface will thicken. Coat with sauce 2 or three times during the final step. Grilling should take about 5 minutes. Sprinkle lightly with brown sugar as desired to achieve caramelization at the end of grilling, season with salt and pepper and serve immediately.
