Paleo Spare Rips

Eating Spare Rips gives you the oppertunity to feel like a real cave man. The way you eat them with your hands and bite the meat off the bone with your teeth just makes me happy every single time ;p
We do have american reateaurants in Germany which have 'spare rips - all you can eat' events and I've been asked multiple times if I wanna join a group of friends to go there. I'd love to have as many spare rips as I can eat. But the BBQ-Sauce of the resteaurant probably contains tons of sugar and vegetable oil, so I always have to decline.
Luckily our last meat delivery contained rips and I decided to make my own paleofriendly spare rips. The result was delicious and I will use this recipe as often as I can from now on.

Paleo Spare Rips

Ingridients (rips):

-rips (amount as needed ;p)

- 1 orange

- 1 lime

- 1 lemon

- 1 onion

- 5 cloves of garlic

- cloves

- cinammon

- white pepper

- sea salt

- Senchuanpepper

Ingredients (BBQ-Sauce):

- 300ml beef broth

- 200ml tomatoes, pureed
- 3 cloves of garlic

- 1/2 onion, diced

- 2 tbl mustard

- 2 tbl apple cidar vinegar

- 1 tbl olive oil

- 2 tbl chili powder

- 1 tl salt

- Cazenne pepper

- tomato paste

Wash the rips, season them with sea salt, white pepper and cinammon and put them into a casserole. Cut the orange, lime and lemon into halves and add them into the casserole. Peel the onion and the garlic cloves and add them aswell. Add 2 cloves and a couple of Senchuanpepper corns. Add water until the rips are fully covered. Seal the casserole with a lid or tin foil. Cook the rips in the oven for 2 hours at 150 degree Celsius (300 degrees Fahrenheit).




In the meantime you can prepare the BBQ-Sauce. Just mix all the ingredients in a pot and let it simmer for about 20 minutes. The sauce should become thicker over time.

After 2 hours remove the rips from the oven and put them onto the grill. Turn them over frequently and coat them with BBQ-Sauce after each time. Season the rips with salt and pepper when they're finished.

We simply ate a big ass salad with them.
