This is not a smoking post. It is a recipe using rib trimmings from preparing a rack. If it is in the wrong forum, please advise or move.
I trimmed 2 full racks of spareribs into St Louis ribs. I often make rib tip appetizers out of the trimmings. This time I went with another favourite is pork ragu.
I start by making a marinara sauce:
100 ml (1/3 cup) olive oil
175 ml (3/4 cup) chopped onion
6 cloves garlic crushed
12 ml (2 1/2 tsp) kosher salt
3 cans (796 ml/27 oz each) crushed tomatoes
7 ml (1 1/2 tsp) dried basil
5 ml (1 tsp) dried oregano
Saute onions in oil until soft. Add garlic and saute for 30 seconds.
Add remaining ingredients and simmer for 30 minutes.
Then I cut the rib trimmings from 2 racks of spare ribs in 2 inch pieces and put them under a broiler until browned. Flip and brown the other side. Add the trimmings to the marinara sauce. Simmer for 2 hours.
Pick the rib segments out and pull the meat off the bones, discarding any large fat deposits. Put the meat back into the sauce.
This freezes well. I served some on some fettuccine.
The Verdict
Delicious! The pork meat and bones give the sauce an incredible richness. Mmmm. The Woman of My Dreams approved.
