Sweet and Spicy Beef Ribs
with Grilled Peaches
Serves 4
Ingredients
- 4 pounds beef back ribs
- 4 tablespoons water
- 4 peaches, halved and pitted
Sauce:
- 1 cup chili sauce (12 oz.)
- 1/2 cup molasses
- 1/2 cup water
- 3 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 1/2 teaspoons hot pepper sauce
- 1 1/2 teaspoons crushed red pepper pods
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
Divide ribs into two slabs (about 3-4 bones each). Place
each slab of ribs on double thickness of heavy-duty foil that
is twice the length of slab plus 8 inches. Sprinkle each slab
with 2 tablespoons of water. Form foil packets using a
drugstore wrap by bringing the sides together at the top and
folding over several times. Fold the open ends over several
times so that foil is securely around ribs leaving some air
space. Place packets on grill over low to medium coals. Cover
cooker and grill 1 hour, turning packets every 20 minutes.
While ribs are cooking, combine chili sauce, molasses, 1/2
cup water, lemon juice, hot pepper sauce, red pepper pods and
cinnamon in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil; reduce heat and
simmer 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Remove ribs from foil and place directly on grid. Brush
both sides with sauce. Continue grilling over low heat 30
minutes brushing ribs occasionally with sauce.
During last 10 minutes that ribs are grilling, place peach
halves cut side down on grid. Grill 7 minutes. Turn and brush
cut side with sauce. Grill 5 additional minutes or until
peaches are soft, brushing occasionally with additional
sauce.
Thoroughly heat remaining sauce. Serve ribs with peaches.
