Preparation

  1. For Argentinian Ribs, clean membrane from spare ribs. Cut superficial incisions alongside the bone. Season with salt and pepper.
  2. Using a food processor, combine sliced green onions, garlic cloves, chipotle peppers, fresh orange juice, vegetable oil, molasses, red wine vinegar, dried thyme, dried oregano, smoked paprika and ground cumin: puree.
  3. Place spareribs in sealable plastic bag and pour in marinade. Marinate ribs for 1 hour or overnight in refrigerator.
  4. Remove ribs from bag; do not discard marinade.
  5. Place ribs on grill over indirect heat of approximately 250°F for 2½ to 3 hours. When finished, ribs should be exposed and meat should be fork-tender.
  6. In separate pot, reduce marinade down to a glaze. Serve glaze alongside spareribs as a dipping sauce.
  7. For Pickled Avocado, Red Onion and Tomato Salad, combine all ingredients in bowl and lightly toss.
