Recipe

BBQ ribs with peach glaze combine the smoky richness of barbecue with the sweet tang of peaches, creating a perfect balance of flavors. This dish is ideal for summer cookouts or any occasion where you want to impress with minimal effort.

Ingredients:

• 2 racks of pork ribs
• 1 cup peach preserves
• 1/2 cup BBQ sauce
• 2 tbsp apple cider vinegar
• 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
• 1 tsp smoked paprika
• 1 tsp garlic powder
• 1 tsp onion powder
• Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:

1. Preheat the oven to 300°F (150°C).
2. Season the ribs generously with salt, pepper, smoked paprika, garlic powder, and onion powder.
3. Wrap the ribs in aluminum foil and place them on a baking sheet. Bake for 2.5 to 3 hours until tender.
4. In a small saucepan, combine peach preserves, BBQ sauce, apple cider vinegar, and Dijon mustard. Simmer over low heat for 5-7 minutes until thickened.
5. Remove the ribs from the oven and unwrap. Brush the peach glaze generously over the ribs.
6. Increase the oven temperature to 400°F (200°C). Return the ribs to the oven, uncovered, for 10-15 minutes until the glaze is caramelized.
7. Let the ribs rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.

Notes:

• For extra smokiness, finish the ribs on a grill instead of the oven.
• Adjust the glaze’s sweetness by adding more or less peach preserves.

What To Serve With It

I love pairing BBQ ribs with peach glaze with classic side dishes like coleslaw or cornbread, but you can’t forget about drink pairings either. A cold iced tea or a fizzy lemonade really complements the sweet and smoky flavors. What’s your go-to combination for a complete meal?

Side Dishes

When it comes to pairing BBQ ribs with peach glaze, there’s a whole world of side dishes that can make the meal truly unforgettable. I love balancing the sweet and smoky flavors with grilled vegetables like zucchini, bell peppers, and asparagus—they add a fresh, charred touch. Cornbread muffins are a must for me; their buttery, slightly sweet taste complements the ribs perfectly. For something lighter, I’ll whip up BBQ salads with crisp greens, tangy dressing, and a sprinkle of cheese. And who can resist crispy potato wedges? They’re hearty, seasoned just right, and always a crowd-pleaser.

Drink Pairings

Ever wondered what drinks can take your BBQ ribs with peach glaze to the next level? I’ve found that the right BBQ drink pairings can make all the difference. A crisp, chilled white wine like Riesling or Sauvignon Blanc complements the sweetness of the peach glaze perfectly. If you’re into beer, a light lager or a hoppy IPA balances the smoky flavors. For something non-alcoholic, try iced peach tea or a fizzy lemonade—they’re exhilarating and match the glaze’s fruity notes. Personally, I love a cold glass of sweet tea; it’s simple but always hits the spot. Cheers to a perfect meal!
