This recipe offers a delicious twist on classic braised pork ribs, combining the rich flavors of beer and barbecue sauce for a tender and flavorful dish.
Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and lightly spray it with cooking oil.
Ensure the skillet is hot before adding the ribs to achieve a good sear.
Sear the pork ribs on all sides until browned, about 7 minutes.
Turn the ribs carefully to avoid tearing the meat.
Place the seared ribs in an oven-proof pan and scatter the onions around them.
Cut the onions into thick slices for even cooking.
Pour the beer over the ribs and cover the pan tightly with aluminum foil.
Ensure the foil is sealed well to retain moisture.
Bake in a preheated oven at 375°F for 1.5 to 2 hours, or until the ribs are tender.
Check the ribs halfway through to ensure they are cooking evenly.
Remove the pan from the oven and carefully pour out the beer.
Use oven mitts to handle the hot pan.
Brush the ribs generously with barbecue sauce and return to the oven uncovered.
Apply the sauce evenly for a consistent glaze.
Bake for an additional hour, or until the sauce is thickened and the ribs are caramelized.
Turn the ribs once during this time for even caramelization.
Serve the ribs hot with your favorite sides and enjoy!
Garnish with fresh herbs like parsley for a pop of color.
