Ingredients

  • 1 rack of pork spareribs (about 3 pounds)
  • Salt
  • Freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 cup olive oil
  • 4 limes, juiced
  • 1/2cup tequila
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped onions
  • 2 tablespoons minced garlic
  • 2 medium jalapenos, stemmed, seeded and finely chopped
  • 2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh cilantro leaves

Directions

Season the ribs with salt and pepper. In a small mixing bowl, whisk the oil, lime juice, tequila, onions, garlic, jalapenos and cilantro. Whisk well. Season with salt and pepper. Place the ribs, meat side down, in a glass baking dish. Pour the marinade over the ribs, coating each side completely. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight (at least 12 hours), turning every couple of hours. Remove from the refrigerator and bring the ribs to room temperature. Preheat the grill on low. Place the ribs, meat side down, and slow grill the ribs, turning and basting every 15 minutes. Cook for about 1 1/2 to 2 hours, or until the ribs are tender. Remove from the grill and slice into individual ribs.

    I never eats ribs and were making these for my extended family who generally like ribs. Ingredients were easy for marinade. We marinated night before and actually they were in the refrigerator for almost 18 hours. Hardest part was cooking on grill and getting a low enough setting, but fixed that by putting on top rack and foil on the main grill to keep on low. They smelled so good I even said I would try them - Well, I can't tell you when we put the first bite in our mouths, we all were amazed with the flavor and tenderness of the ribs! They were delicious!!! YUM! Will definitly make again. Might I suggest homemade guacamole (since you have limes and cilantro!.
