spareribs<\/a> might just become your new favorite easy-to-make pork dish.<\/p>\nSweet and Sour Spareribs Ingredients<\/h2>\n Leticia Almeida for Taste Recipes<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\nPork spareribs or pork baby back ribs: <\/strong>As portioned out here, you\u2019ll be working with 6 pounds of pork spareribs or pork baby back ribs. Either option will taste great.<\/li>\nSugar: <\/strong>Half a\u00a0cup of sugar brings sweetness to the sauce and balances out the more bitter and acidic flavors from the vinegar.<\/li>\nBrown sugar: <\/strong>As always when you’re cooking with brown sugar, make sure to pack it down into the measuring cup.<\/li>\nCornstarch: <\/strong>The cornstarch acts as a binding and thickening agent, helping ensure the sauce has the right consistency.<\/li>\nKetchup: <\/strong>A cup of ketchup is the main event in this sauce, serving as the vehicle for all the other flavors to combine with.<\/li>\nCider vinegar: <\/strong>Cider vinegar and apple cider vinegar are almost exactly the same, in case you were wondering.<\/li>\nCold water: <\/strong>Make sure the water is cold during the initial mixing of ingredients, as it will help them combine properly.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\nDirections<\/h2>\nStep 1: Bake the ribs<\/h3>\n Leticia Almeida for Taste Recipes<\/span><\/span><\/p>\nPlace the ribs on a rack in a large, shallow roasting pan and bake them, uncovered, at 350\u00b0F for 1 hour and 30 minutes.<\/p>\n
Step 2: Make the sauce<\/h3>\n Leticia Almeida for Taste Recipes<\/span><\/span><\/p>\nMeanwhile, in a small saucepan, combine the sugar, brown sugar, cornstarch, ketchup, vinegar and water and stir until the mixture is smooth. Bring the sauce to a boil, and cook and stir for one to two minutes until it has thickened.<\/p>\n
Step 3: Drizzle the sauce and finish baking<\/h3>\n Leticia Almeida for Taste Recipes<\/span><\/span><\/p>\nRemove the cooked ribs from the pan and drain and discard the fat. Next, return the ribs to the roasting pan and drizzle 1-1\/2 cups of sauce onto the ribs. Bake them for 30 minutes longer. Finally, cut the ribs into serving-size pieces and brush on the remaining sauce.<\/p>\n
Leticia Almeida for Taste Recipes<\/span><\/span><\/p>\nSweet and Sour Spareribs Variations<\/h2>\n\nTry it on beef:<\/strong> The same sauce tastes just as good on beef ribs as it does on pork.<\/li>\nUse juice:<\/strong> Swapping out the water for orange juice increases the tang and tastiness of this flavorful sauce.<\/li>\nSpice it up:<\/strong> Mixing a half teaspoon of cayenne pepper into the sauce not only adds heat, but also accentuates the flavors.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\nHow to Store Sweet and Sour Spareribs<\/h2>\n These ribs can be kept in airtight containers in the fridge for up to four days. Reheat them in the microwave or in the oven.<\/p>\n
Can you freeze cooked spareribs?<\/h3>\n Yes, you can store cooked pork ribs in the freezer for up to three months. When you’re ready to eat them, first thaw the meat in the fridge overnight, then reheat the ribs to at least 140\u00ba.<\/p>\n
Sweet and Sour Spareribs Tips<\/h2>\n Leticia Almeida for Taste Recipes<\/span><\/span><\/p>\nWhat should I serve with these ribs?<\/h3>\n The ribs and sauce have a sweet and tangy flavor profile, so rice as your starch is a good idea, and cooked onions and peppers are a wonderful accompaniment.<\/p>\n
What is the minimum safe temperature for cooking pork?<\/h3>\n These ribs, and any pork products, should be cooked until a food thermometer inserted into the thickest part reads at least 140\u00b0, as the temperature will continue to rise for several degrees after you remove the ribs from the heat.<\/p>\n
Can I use store-bought sauce?<\/h3>\n Of course you can, but that would take the fun out of it. If you\u2019re just looking for a safe way to cook ribs and an easy way to make dinner, though, then follow the baking instructions in terms of timing and heat, and go ahead and use a premade sauce.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

My cooking time was about the same time, but different method, as I used a NuWave oven for the recommended time of 15 to 18 minutes per side of the ribs.I place the cooked ribs in a large baking pan, meaty side up, smothered with the sauce, covered pan with foil, and baked at 250 - 275 degrees for 90 minutes. Checked a couple of times to make sure sauce wasn't burning, and spooned pan drippings over the ribs, re-covered, and continued cooking, adjusting oven temp as needed.Tender, tasty, moist and juicy. Sauce is wonderful, a change of pace from the molasses based bottled BBQ sauce I usually use.
