Welcome to I Love Pork Ribs
How to Cook Pork Ribs:
Should I boil ribs first?

To Boil, or not to boil pork
ribs when cooking...
Boiling ribs before cooking
is a personal preference,
however professional chefs
insist boiling ribs is the
worst possible technique for
cooking ribs. It is
important to know what the
results of boiling
ribs are however, so you can
decide if you want to boil
your ribs.
-
Boiling pork ribs
results in a very
tender, fall off the
bone rib meat.
-
Boiling / steaming gets
the fat out.
-
Boiling ribs releases
the flavor of the pork
into the surrounding
water- similar to making
homemade soup.
Explaining further... when
meat is boiled, both the
flavor and texture are
significantly effected.
This is accelerated even
more if salt is added to the
boiling water. Have
you ever tasted the water
after boiling something?
The flavor of the water can
quickly become stronger than
the ingredient boiled.
Boil ribs with best results:
-
Boil ribs, but not until
they are "fall off the
bone" to keep flavor.
Place pork ribs in a
deep pot with enough
water to cover ribs.
Since salt accelerates
the loss of flavor while
boiling ribs, add pepper
but do not add salt
until ribs are finished
boiling. Before the meat
separates from the bone,
but when a fork starts
to pierce the pork
easily, drain the ribs
and place them in a
roasting pan with water
or beer in it.
Continue with baking
ribs in the oven.
Cook ribs without
boiling, for best results:
You can achieve the same rib
tenderness that comes from
boiling ribs, by cooking at
low heat for a long period.
Cook, bake, bbq or grill
ribs without boiling and
keep the flavor using the
following methods:
-
Use a
dry rib rub to
tenderize your pork
ribs. After
applying your preferred
dry rib rub, wrap them
in saran wrap at least
12 hours before cooking
(longer is even better.)
Same tenderizing results
as boiling ribs, but
with far more flavor.
-
If planning to
cook your pork ribs in
the oven, cover ribs
with aluminum foil and
place in a pan with a
little water or beer in
the bottom. Add
more liquid as needed
while ribs cook.
