Jamaican Jerk Barbecued Ribs

by Helen Willinsky

In this recipe, I combine the jerk flavors with barbecue sauce. The sauce, added during the final 15 minutes of cooking adds a delicious crust to the succulent ribs. Any store-bought barbecue sauce will do.

Servings: 4

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup Jerk Marinade
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 2 tablespoons re wine vinegar
  • 4 pounds pork spareribs
  • about 1½ cups barbecue sauce

Method:
Combine the Jerk Marinade, sugar and vinegar. Add the ribs and turn to coat thoroughly. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours.
Prepare a fire in the grill. When the coals have burned down, rake the coals to the sides. Set a drip pan in the center of the grill and arrange the coals around it to provide indirect heat. Place the ribs on the grill over the drip pan, and cook for 1½ hours, turning and brushing frequently with the marinade. Brush the ribs with the commercial barbecue sauce during the last 15 minutes of cooking.
Serve with Rice and Peas, and a salad. Add lots of brightly colored napkins, Jamaican Red Strip beer and reggae music.
