Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pounds pork ribs
- 0.5 cups hoisin sauce
- 0.25 cups honey
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon ginger, grated
- 0.5 teaspoons five-spice powder
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
- 2 green onions, chopped (for garnish)
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds (for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C).
Remove the membrane from the back of the pork ribs. Pat them dry with paper towels and season generously with salt and black pepper on both sides.
Place the ribs on a large sheet of aluminum foil, meat side up, and wrap them tightly. Place the foil-wrapped ribs on a baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven for 2 hours until the ribs are tender and cooked through.
While the ribs are baking, prepare the honey-hoisin glaze. In a medium mixing bowl, combine the hoisin sauce, honey, soy sauce, rice vinegar, minced garlic, grated ginger, five-spice powder, and sesame oil. Whisk until smooth and set aside.
Once the ribs are done baking, carefully remove them from the oven and allow them to cool slightly before unwrapping the foil.
Increase the oven temperature to 425°F (220°C) or preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
Brush the ribs generously with the prepared honey-hoisin glaze on both sides.
Place the ribs on a baking sheet (for oven) or directly on the grill and cook for 10-15 minutes, flipping once halfway through, until the glaze caramelizes and becomes slightly sticky.
Remove the ribs from the oven or grill and let them rest for 5 minutes before cutting.
Garnish with chopped green onions and sesame seeds before serving.
Serve warm and enjoy!
