Category: Ribs Grilled
    Prep Time:       Cook Time:       Total Time:  

5 lbs. back ribs
1 Tbsp kosher salt
1 tsp fresh ground black pepper
16 oz. bottle pomegranate juice*
2/3 cup ketchup
1 Tbsp molasses
1 Tbsp soy sauce
2 scallions, white and green parts, chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced

Season the ribs with salt and pepper. Charcoal: prepare an indirect medium-hot fire with drip pan in the center. Gas: heat grill to medium and turn off burners directly below where the ribs will go. Lightly oil cooking grate. Place ribs over indirect heat (over drip pan or unlit burner). Close grill hood and cook until ribs are tender, about 1 1/2 to 2 hours. (if using charcoal, add more charcoal briquettes to fire, if necessary, to maintain grill temperature of about 325-350)
Meanwhile, bring pomegranate juice to a boil in a medium saucepan over high heat. Boil until thickened and reduced to 1/3 cup, about 15 minutes. Stir in ketchup, molasses, soy sauce, scallions and garlic. Bring to a simmer. Cook, stirring often, until slightly thickened, about 5 minutes.
During last 20 minutes of cooking ribs, baste ribs with sauce. Ribs are done when meat pulls away from the bone.

*May substitute with 1/3 cup red currant jelly and 1 Tbsp cider vinegar.

Serves 6
