HOW TO COOK PORK COUNTRY STYLE RIBS RECIPES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
•  
• Pat the ribs dry and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Heat 2
• tablespoons of the oil in a Dutch oven over medium-high heat and brown the ribs
• on all sides, working in batches if needed. Remove the ribs and set aside. Add
• the remaining 1 tablespoon of oil to the Dutch oven and reduce the heat to medium.
• Add the carrots, celery, onions and some salt and pepper and cook until soft,
• about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add
• the tomato paste and cook, stirring, to remove the raw flavor, about 3 minutes.
• Deglaze the pan with the vinegar, and then add the red pepper flakes and bay
• leaves.
•  
• Add the ribs back to the pan and add enough stock to reach
• halfway up the sides of the ribs. Bring the pan to a simmer, cover and place in
• the oven. Braise until the meat is tender, about 1 1/2 hours. During the last
• half hour, uncover to allow the liquid to reduce and the pork to brown.
•  
• Serve the ribs with Creamy Polenta, spooning the sauce on
• top, and garnishing with parsley.
•  
• Spray the insert of a slow cooker with cooking spray (for easier clean up) and preheat on high.
•  
• In a medium saucepan, add 1 cup of the half-and-half, the milk, 1 tablespoon of the butter and the polenta. Season with salt and bring to a boil over medium-high heat, whisking constantly to keep the mixture lump-free. Boil for 2 to 3 minutes. Pour the mixture into the slow cooker and cook on high for 2 hours, stirring once or twice per hour. 
•  
• Once you are ready to serve, open the slow cooker and whisk in the remaining 1 tablespoon butter, the remaining 1/3 cup half-and-half and the Parmesan. Salt and pepper conservatively since the polenta will be served with a robustly salted dish.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F.
• Season the ribs well with salt and pepper and place them on a baking sheet lined with aluminum foil and fitted with a baking rack. For Bone-in, dry-roast for 90 minutes, uncovered. [See Note 3]For Boneless, cover with foil and bake for 90 minutes. [See Notes 1 & 2]
• Meanwhile, combine all of the BBQ sauce ingredients in a saucepan and slowly bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce the heat to medium-low and gently simmer until dark, thick, and richly flavored 10 to 15 minutes.Pour off any abundance of grease that has collected in the pan.
• After 90 minutes, remove the baking tray from the oven and carefully pour off any abundance of liquid and oil that has collected in the pan. [See Note 4]
• Next, increase the oven temperature to 350 degrees F. Baste the ribs with BBQ sauce and return, uncovered, to the oven.
• Continue basting in 30-minute intervals, turning the ribs each time you baste with sauce. After 90 minutes, the meat will begin to fall apart it's so tender – you’ll notice this when you turn the ribs during basting.
• Once the ribs are tender, increase the oven to broil. While the oven heats, baste the ribs one last time before returning to the oven.
• Broil the ribs for a minute or two just to caramelize the sauce. The sugars in the sauce can char fast so be sure to stay close to the oven during the broiling process.
• Serve with your favorite BBQ sides like mac n cheese, cole slaw, or potato salad.
