Spice-Rubbed Rotisserie Ribs with Pineapple Glaze
This was the recipe in our first newsletter! I re-shot the pictures for our recipe book (coming soon), so I figured I would share this recipe this month. 1. Prepare ribs by removing the membrane of the back of the ribs. Apply your favorite Caribbean rub to the ribs. I make my own. If you have any of the rub I gave away at the clinic, just add some cinnamon, clove, and nutmeg and you have a Caribbean rub.
2. Place the ribs in a large baking dish or large Ziploc bag and let them sit in refrigerator for a few hours or as long as overnight… the longer the better. Remove ribs from refrigerator prior to cooking so they return to room temperature.
3. Set up your gas or charcoal grill for spit roasting (per grill instructions) for medium heat.
4. Use a foil drip pain to prevent fat from dripping into your grill.
5. Cut a hole every 2 or 3 ribs for the spit. Weave the spit through the ribs. It is not as hard as it sounds.
6. Put spit on grill and start motor (see first pic).
7. Fill a clean spray bottle with pineapple juice and spray the ribs as they cook to add additional favor and to keep them from getting dry.
8. Ribs are done when the meat pulls back from the bone about ¼ to ½ inch. About 1-1.5 hours (pic 2).
9. Remove ribs from spit (use heat-proof gloves/oven mitts) since the spit will be hot. The ribs can be sliced into individual ribs and served as an appetizer (pic 3). While the ribs cook you can make your pineapple glaze. 10. In a small saucepan, mix 1.5 cups of pineapple juice and ½ cup of brown sugar. If you like, add 1 cup of spiced rum to the mix. Cook over medium to high heat to reduce the mix (meaning the ingredients will thicken) to create the glaze for drizzling or dipping the ribs. Enjoy!
