Peachy BBQ Beef Ribs. I’m Keen For New Music From Gymast.

Peach preserves are what puts the peach into these Peachy BBQ Beef Ribs. The acidity of the vinegar and lemon juice perfectly balance the sweetness of the brown sugar and the preserves.

The ribs are pre-baked which makes them meltingly tender. The sauce forms a deliciously thick coating on the ribs during the cooking time. Finger licking good. Finish on a BBQ grill for added flavor if you like.

I thought a simple side of buttered zucchini worked perfectly here. Corn on the cob would be great, too.

Peachy BBQ Beef Ribs

Ingredients:

2 pounds (905g) beef ribs
1/4 cup (80g) peach preserves
1/2 cup (120ml) water
Juice of 1 lemon
1-1/2 Tbs (23g) brown sugar
1 Tbs (15ml) vinegar
1/2 tsp (1.3g) paprika
freshly ground black pepper
2 Tbs (28ml) Worcestershire sauce

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 450°F/230℃.

2. Place the ribs on a rack in a shallow baking pan and roast in oven for 30 minutes.

3. In a small saucepan, combine all other ingredients and cook over medium heat until thickened, stirring constantly. Set sauce aside.

4. Remove the ribs from pan and pour off the fat. Reduce oven heat to 350°F/180℃.

5. Return ribs to the pan, and pour the sauce over them. Bake uncovered, basting occasionally, until ribs are tender, about 1 hour.

6. If you like, finish the ribs on a BBQ grill.
