Comments: BBQ sauce and amber ale is a perfect match for any type of meat. The sweetness in the sauce and the sweetness in the beer and roasted flavours will make the both the flavours in the food and in the beer distinct. Cream ale and stout will help cool the tongue from aggressive spices and compliment the flavours in the meat. Wild Northern Barbeque Ribs
Two racks of ribs. About four pounds in total.Thaw in fridge day before
For Braising liquid
- One onion quartered
- 2 cloves garlic crushed
- ½ tsp horseradish
- 3 crushed juniper berries
- 1 T. brown sugar
- salt and pepper to taste
- 1/2tsp tamarind concentrate
- 1 sprig rosemary
- 2 bay leaves
- 2 T. balsamic vinegar
- 1 can Guinness
- add enough water to cover ribs
It is not necessary but recommended to sear the meat prior to braising to enhance the flavour. The day before the barbeque is the time to start this dish. Sear the ribs directly on the barbeque or large frying pan. Set in deep oven proof dish to allow liquid to cover ribs laying flat. Add all ingredients and bring to a boil on top of stove and immediately turn to simmer and cover loosely with lid on top of stove. Simmer for four hours or until meat begins to show signs of tenderness. Muskox is a wild harvest meat that requires a longer braising time to break down the muscle to the consistency typically associated with a tender pork or beef rib. Remove the ribs and let cool. Refrigerate till ready to use. Strain off the liquid and reduce on the stove top to create a wonderful concentrated sauce for the ribs or you could apply your favourite barbeque sauce to the ribs if you prefer. Coat the ribs in the sauce and place on a medium high barbecue till hot and ready to serve. Typically about 10 minutes to heat through. Apply more sauce while cooking or provide a dish on the table for dipping. A truly wild barbecue experience!
