  • *THAI BARBECUE SAUCE*
  • 6 cloves garlic — minced
  • 2 tablespoons finely minced ginger
  • 8 serrano peppers or other small hat chiles — minced, including seeds

Method

  1. Place the ribs, meaty side down, on a flat surface.
  2. Using your fingernail, loosen a little of the membrane along the end of the last rib bone.
  3. Then, grasp the membrane firmly with a paper towel (so that the membrane doesn’t slip from your grip).
  4. Holding the ribs down with the other hand, pull the membrane away.
  5. If it doesn’t pull away in one piece, dislodge any remaining membrane, grip it with a paper towel, and pull the membrane away.
  6. Then place the ribs in a rectangular dish or baking pan.
  7. To make the sauce, combine all the sauce ingredients and stir well.

  1. Coat the ribs evenly on both sides with half the sauce.
  2. Marinate the ribs, refrigerated, for at least -5 minutes.

  4. Reserve the remaining sauce to serve as a sauce for the ribs.
  5. If using a gas barbecue, preheat it to medium (325F).
  6. If using charcoal or wood, prepare a fire.
  7. When the coals or wood are ash covered, push them to the outside of the grill.
  8. Place a pan of water in the bottom of the grill among the coals, and cover the coals with the cooking grate.
  9. Place a rib rack on the cooking grate and add the ribs.

  11. Cover the grill.
  12. Regulate the heat so it remains at a medium temperature.
  13. Occasionally during cooking, baste the ribs with extra marinade.
