Hawaiian Spareribs- Oh, these are GOOD!

Eat a few of these Hawaiian spareribs and you'll think you're on the Big Island. Simply smoke a sparerib slab, then bathe it in a luscious pineapple bbq sauce for Hawaiian flavor.

For the sauce, you'll need...

One cup pineapple juice
One cup tomato sauce
One-half cup sugar
One-quarter cup teriyaki sauce
One-quarter cup lemon juice
One tablespoon onion powder
One teaspoon salt
One teaspoon black pepper
One-half teaspoon powdered ginger

Combine all of the bbq sauce ingredients in a saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low and continue boiling until the sauce is slightly thickened.

Take a trimmed sparerib slab and marinate it for 2 hours in unsweetened pineapple juice. Drain well, then season with salt, pepper and just a touch of powdered ginger. Smoke until very tender. If you can find guava wood for the smoker, use it for authentic flavor.

Allow the ribs to cool slightly, then cut into individual pieces and drench with the sauce. Serve your Hawaiian spareribs on top of a pile of steamed white rice.

Smoke Dried Tomatoes

Have you ever eaten sun dried tomatoes? This recipe for smoke dried tomatoes creates something similar, but with a smokey flavor. Just about any tomato can be used, but remember. You can't turn a flavorless tomato into a tasty smoked tomato. Great tasting fresh tomatoes will make the best smoked tomatoes.
Preparing The Tomatoes

To prepare the tomatoes, halve them and remove the core and seeds. Leave on the skin. Season with just a bit of salt. Place them on the smoker grate skin side up, so liquid will drain out of the hollow. These need to smoke at a low temperature ... between 140 F and 160 F is about right.
Light smoke is all these need. They can easily turn bitter if oversmoked. After the first couple of hours, begin to check them every half hour, rotating as needed, and removing the ones that are done. When finished,
they will be leathery and pliable.

Smoke drying tomatoes concentrates the tomato flavor, and with the bit of added smokiness, these are Good! Smoke dried tomatoes are great as an addition to dips. I chop a handful, and mix into cream cheese, with just a bit of sour cream and fresh, chopped chives.
