Well we've enjoyed a tiny bit of rest and relaxation at "Your Chef" this week, a rarity indeed. But that has now come to an end as we have a rather busy weekend ahead. Family parties are the name of the game this weekend with us catering for one on Saturday and another one on Sunday.
Everyone at the moment seems to be barbecuing despite the irregular rain that blights us at regular intervals. So for this weeks recipe I thought we would have a barbecue theme. It is for barbecue ribs and you can cook them either on the barbecue or in the oven should the inclement weather catch you out.
Barbecue Baby Back Ribs
Serves 6
6 racks of baby back ribs (your butcher will trim then for you)
500ml tomato ketchup
3 tbsp brown sugar
½ tsp paprika
½ tsp chilli powder
4 tbsp white wine vinegar
A good pinch of dried tarragon
A good pinch of dried oregano
2 tsp gravy browning
100ml water
Mix all the ingredients, except the ribs, together in a large bowl and stir until the sugar the sugar has dissolved and the gritty feeling has disappeared. Put the ribs in a large tray and pour over the sauce, refrigerate overnight.
Put the ribs still in the sauce in a moderate oven (180-200°C) for around 1-1½ hours depending on the thickness of the ribs. When they are tender but not falling part remove them from the sauce. If you are going to barbecue them simply pop them on the barbecue to finish for 3-4 minutes on each side, if you are finishing them in the oven just pop them on a baking tray for 10 mins just to dry them out a little. Leave to cool for a few mins before eating or they will take the skin off your lips¦!! Enjoy with a big green salad and some roasted potato wedges.
Our new website is so near completion we can nearly taste it. Once its launched we will let you all know with a special blog all of its own, the current site is at www.yourchef.uk.com.
Anyway have a good week I will update you next week.
