Beer-B-Q’d Weisse Ribs

April 14, 2003 -- Ribs are the ultimate in ‘Q’. These succulent, juicy, lip-smacking & tender ribs can be prepared ahead of time on the same day for grilling later in the evening.

RIB COOKING
4 Baby Back Ribs
2 Bottles Weisse Beer
1 – 1½ Lemons
1 ~ Orange
2 tsp. (10mL) Black Peppercorns
2 cups (500mL) Beer Barbeque Sauce

Heat oven to 310°.
Peel off membrane underneath ribs.
Place ribs in a roasting pan, stand ribs "spine side down" and arrange "meat to meat" and "membrane side to membrane side" to allow space between slabs.
Distribute cut lemons, oranges and black peppercorn over ribs.
Add Weisse Beer to the roasting pan so that the ribs are well-covered in beer. Cover roasting pan with a lid, or tightly cover with first plastic wrap and then aluminium foil. Transfer the roasting pan to the oven.
Set timer for 3 hours.
When timer sounds, uncover one side of the roasting pan. Test for "doneness". Use a fork to pierce meat between bones. Twist fork. If bones do not separate easily, reseal and cook additional fifteen minutes.
Recheck for doneness until the meat is tender and the meat separates from the bones.
When ribs are done, remove from oven, let cool in the beer to absorb liquid.
Once cool, remove and store for later use.
When ready to eat, heat the barbeque and reheat ribs. Baste continuously to caramelize the barbeque sauce on to the ribs.
Once hot and crispy, serve.

Serves 4 – 6
