Roasted Pork in an Asian Fused Mustard Peanut Sauce


Once again, I was just perusing what we had in the fridge and the cupboard and came up with an idea that was nothing short of amazing. If you haven't ever bought country style spare ribs at the grocery store, they go on BOGO quite often and yield a lot of meat. You have to cook these low and slow, but the flavor is definitely there. This sauce I made is just me mixing some stuff together and it ended up being so good. It is rich in flavor with a big salty hit of soy on the front with a peanut flavor that kicks you pretty well on the back. The mustard just links the two hits together in a delightful spicy bridge with a sweet hint of honey going through it. Here are the things you will need for this delicious treat.

8 Country Style Pork Spare Ribs
Greek Seasoning (use for the meat rub)
Soy Sauce
Worcestershire Sauce
Whole Grain Mustard
Honey
Peanut Butter
Onion Powder
Garlic Powder
Black Pepper
Paprika
Italian Seasoning

Your going to heat the oven to 325 for this recipe. Sprinkle the Greek seasoning on the meat and rub into the ribs. Wash your hands really well and then you'll need to place the ribs in a glass casserole dish. In a mixing bowl, mix about 1/2 cup of Whole Grain Mustard, 10 dashes of soy sauce, 3 dashes of Worcestershire sauce, 2 tbsp of honey, 1 heaping spoonful of peanut butter, 1 tbsp each of garlic and onion powder, 1 tsp of black pepper, 1 tsp of paprika, and 1 tbsp of Italian Seasoning (this contains oregano, basil, coriander, thyme, parsley, and rosemary if you don't have the italian seasoning blend). Mix vigorously with a wisk and pour all of the sauce except for 1/4 cup over the pork (place the rest to the side, you will use it later). Place in preheated oven for 2 hours. After an hour and a half, turn the ribs over and allow the other side of the ribs to roast in the sauce for 30 minutes. What this last step does is allows the side that was once drowned in the sauce to sear in the sauce and allows the roasted side to rest in the flavor again for a little while. Remove from the oven and let the meat set off to the side for about 10-15 minutes which allows the pork to finish cooking in its own fat and will let the juices inside the meat settle a little bit. You'll want to slice the meat into small chunks and then you will use about 1/4 cup of the sauce that is leftover to toss the pork around in. Serve the Pork with some potatoes or rice, and some corn and you are good to go. Hope you'll enjoy this one.
