Grilled Country-Style Pork Ribs
Serves 2
Country-style pork ribs are a lesser-known cut from the shoulder. These boneless pieces are marbled and juicy. They don’t need to be slow-cooked until they fall apart like their bone-in counterparts. In fact, they’re perfect for a good hot sear on the grill and are a well-marbled, dark-meat alternative to pork chops.
Ingredients:
- 1 pound country-style pork ribs
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- Blackened Spice Rub, to taste (See Cook’s Tip)
- Flaky finishing salt, to taste, to taste
Directions:
- Rub pork ribs all over with a thin layer of mustard. This will help the spices stick to the meat.
- Season all over with spice rub. For best results, do this a day ahead. Wrap ribs tightly so that the spices and salt can penetrate the meat.
- Heat grill on high. Grill ribs about 2 to 3 minutes per side, until a probe thermometer entered into the thickest part reads 145°F. Each side of the ribs should be well caramelized.
- Remove pork from grill and let rest 5 minutes on a cutting board. Slice thinly against the grain. Sprinkle with flaky salt.
- Cook’s Tip:
- Due to their higher fat marbling, country-style ribs hold up well to more complex spice rubs such as Cajun blends or blackened spice. Use your favorite one but be sure to pick a rub with minimal sugar. The high heat needed for the fat to render tends to burn sugary rubs.
