Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pounds Pork ribs
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.3333333333333333 cup Honey
- 0.25 cup Soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon Rice vinegar
- 4 cloves Minced garlic
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 1 tablespoon Sesame seeds (optional, for garnish)
- 2 tablespoons Chopped green onions (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C).
Pat the pork ribs dry with paper towels, then season both sides evenly with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.
Place the ribs on a baking sheet lined with aluminum foil (for easy cleanup), and cover them tightly with another sheet of foil.
Bake in the preheated oven for 80-90 minutes, or until the ribs are tender but not falling apart.
As the ribs bake, prepare the honey garlic sauce. In a small bowl, whisk together honey, soy sauce, rice vinegar, and minced garlic.
In a saucepan over medium heat, warm the olive oil. Add the honey garlic mixture and let it simmer for 5-7 minutes until it slightly thickens. Remove from heat and set aside.
Once the ribs are done, remove them from the oven and uncover. Brush both sides generously with the honey garlic sauce.
Preheat the grill to medium heat or set your oven to broil. Place the sauced ribs on the grill or baking sheet (uncovered) and cook for an additional 5-10 minutes, flipping and basting with more sauce halfway through, until the glaze is sticky and caramelized.
Remove the ribs from the heat and let them rest for 5 minutes. Garnish with sesame seeds and chopped green onions, if desired.
Slice the ribs into individual pieces and serve warm with your favorite sides, such as steamed vegetables or mashed potatoes.
